Operating engine temp shouldn't vary as much regardless of ambient temp, remember that the 30/40 @operating temp is still thinner than the starting viscosity of oil in our >0 degree temps

in...

40 is operating viscosity so shouldnt matter as much if it's summer or winter. either way, the book recommends 5w40 as acceptable for all ambient operating temps

Hi all!,

Just performed the first DIY out of warranty service on our 2013 current shape Accord VTI-L + ADAS 39,000kms. will be following a similar schedule to my Euro 06 with 246,000kms on it (so...

I've used the Nulon Multi Vehicle Fully Synthetic (gold bottle) and Penrite multi-vehicle Fully Synthetic (green stripe)... mainly penrite because it's on special more often....

new magnefine...

don't bother, last thing you want is to buy it and find out it's a dud years down the line....

Mines nearly at 250,000km and still shifts like new with yearly single oil changes

They are useful in the sense that you dont need to fiddle and find the holder but remember that like with your shocks, a bad quality one will fail and not hold your bonnet up making it worse than...

do you have a link to the warranty?

I know they claim 10 years and 1,000,000km but there's no warranty i dont think...

also when changing colours you really need to make sure you get all of the...

Mine came with green when I bought it so have been doing the same as well every 3-5 years..... still do a full flush everytime though.

Our newer honda has blue, on the fence about swapping it over...

not legal in Australia unless you have proper self-levellers

it doesn't matter if it causes damage or not, the cruise only controls throttle to keep speed so it doesn't know you are in neutral hence why it revs up trying to get you back to the set speed.......

you shouldn't be going to neutral doing down hill.... just downshift or use your brakes

bits of metal?!?!...... how big are we talking? could be an issue if we are talking big.....

the magnet on the plug should have caught all of the small bits/ filings which are normal

defensive driving courses, i have been told actually recommends people to put tyres to 40psi for better steering response....

I have played with it and prefer those pressures... never had an issue...

no, i was replying to the max pressures stamped on the current tyres,

in terms of the pressures recommended on the door, they always recommend a number in the middle of the comfort, noise and...

That's a really low max....

All of my tyres have at least had a 50psi cold max or 60psi max.... could be because they are more comfort + touring tyres with soft sidewalls

keep them around 35psi...

I think the 300mm and 280mm is for the 2L variant?

yeah, rear rotors aren't huge

i've still got stock OEMs on my fronts because the last owner listened to dealer recommendations and got new rotors and pads when I bought the car 70,000km ago

Got...

I have HPX's on my rear now.....

part no: QBD1265 with is the same as the bendix db1265

That's interesting.... I've heard of theories that using the brake pedal to pump can cause damage to the master cylinder if the seals are going but not if you bleed it furthest to closest...., the...

yeah i'm using the BBA400, i bought the 450 first time around based on the Bosch recommendation and had to return it

the 650 with the 400 gives a very good coverage compared to OEM IMO

+1 from the master cylinder..... top it up regularly to minimise the chance of running it dry....

are you going to use a 1 man bleeder/ hand pump or another person?

might have been a silly question but no headlight indicator or dimming of the dashboard is related, had to double check.....
the headlights do still work fine?

should come on when you turn on your headlights?

I think there was a thread here sometime last year with this same issue, cant find it at the moment but i don't think it's the transmission...

nevertheless, you should still do some changes on it...

Hey guys,

I was looking at my CL9 to see how much room there is between the bumper and the radiator/condenser and found a sensor like object on the passenger's side behind the number plate of the...
