It was only a battery voltage test that was done. Are there other tests you can suggest?

Cheers

Do any DC2's have an Ignition Key cylinder light? I'm going to have a look at my DC2 VTi-R now. I've never noticed it before, but I've never really looked for one.

Hey,

Thanks for your info!

I had a little poke around the battery and alternator and tighten the grounding straps, and gave it a really good run and it seems to be OK now.

Cheers!

Hi all,

I have a strange issue with my stock DC2 VTi-R. I've been doing a bit of research into the issue I have but nothing really seems to match the problem I have.

So, the problem. When my...

Hi,

I think you may have broken the Wheel Speed Sensor. The ABS uses individual wheel speed sensors to determine when and which wheel locks up and if the ABS module can not detect these sensors it...

Have you tried the Apexi website to look for the manual? I'm sure it has the details on resetting the device?

Hey,

Check you connections at the back of the fuse box inside the car. It sounds like some loose wires rather than blown fuses. Check the wiring also from the brake pedal switch.

Have you done...

Hey all,

Hey,

I checked my oil level and it wasn't even showing on the dip stick!?! I actually checked it a couple of times; before I left for work after the car was sitting in the garage over night and...

Hi,

Thanks for your feedback. I'll check the oil level before heading off to work. I had the 120K service done only a few months ago so if I have low oil levels Eastern Honda will be receiving a...

Hey,

An interesting thing just happened to me on the way home tonight. I pulled up fairly hard at the lights so the ABS kicked in on my 1999 DC2 VTiR. The roads were wet, as I live in Melbourne....

It sounds more like the temperature lever linking to the HVAC has broken / come off. Remove your glove box and have a look around.

It doesn't sound like the A/C compressor at all.

Good luck

It's important to adjust the beam so you don't blind the driver of the car in front of you. Personally HID's are a waste of money if you live in the city; Most of the roads are illuminated.

DCx Wiper Motors are self parking. Check the condition of the Wiper Motor. The internal parking switch might be worn out.

The screws on the little silver metal bar bolted on the B-pilar (inside door frame) are the ones you want to loosen.

Troy, that's correct. However, if you loosen the screws, be very sure to only _just_ loosen them and use a plastic hammer and tap the door lock latch (metal thingo) in the direction towards the...

All fuel injected cars have a mass airflow meter! It's one of the critical elements! Check all the cables and connections around the air intake, especially where it meets with the throttle body.

A double flashing indicator would make your not roadworthy (in VIC). Chances are most drivers would not even know what is going on, but a police person eager to give out a fine would definitely...

The flash rate has increased as a result of the LED loads not drawing the required current. The double flash rate is used to signal to the driver that one of the 21W bulbs (front and rear main bulbs)...

If you have fluid leaking, check if it is your clutch fluid before going down the new clutch path. A new Master / slave cylinder is only about $200.

Are you able to take a picture of the leak you...

Check that your Clutch Master cylinder is not leaking fluid. If it is, top it up and have the Master and slave cylinder replaced as this problem will keep happening. You can check the levels in the...

Hey,

That's exactly right.

I had my car serviced at Honda recently and Tech told me that the PCV valve needs to be replaced.

I bought a new one but did not want to spend a couple of hundred...

Hey people,

My DC2 VTiR has recently started making a whistle noise when I turn the engine off. It actually happens once the pistons have stopped moving and the positive / negative pressures...

Hi All,

My DC2 is just about ready for its 120K service and the dealer are asking for approx. $725. This seams a little expensive. They claimed it's a major service and requires the valves to be...

I recently picked up a stock DC2 for 14K with 116K on the clock. I think it's a great deal if your happy to spend the money.
