CU2 is a nice upgrade to CL9. More kits and more up market. Price should be quite reasonable now that it has been discontinued. In the UK, CU2 has been rated with very good reliability.
What you described are the likely signs that your battery is dying. How old is your battery? Go to a battery shop to have it replaced or call a mobile battery service.
I fully support your idea. The only issue is some people may mistaken normal engine noise as PCS or people like me who can't hear certain sound frequency. Never the less, it will be interesting to...
My 2010 Euro Wagon (MY09) has PCS (Post Combustion Sound). I cannot hear the PCS because I can't hear certain sound frequency. However, my wife (who has professional music...
Interesting. Did you have a Technical Service Bulletin which explains the fix to this problem. Honda usually issues a TSB to its technician for known problems. Getting hold of a TSB usually involves...
I feel for you. I can't stand rattle noise myself. You don't buy a Honda to get a rattle problem. You are right about it is the niggling problems that is most frustrating.
Sorry to hear about your rattling noise coming back. Defintely go back to the dealer, I suspect they may not have installed it properly. In March this year, I have my CRV bottom cushion...
Sorry to hear about your problem. Sounds like you car has a perpetual alignment problem. The explanation could be that this car has been in an accident before and it may have a sub frame alignment...
Unfortunetly, starting from the Euro style fancy wiper blade about 3 years ago, Honda changed its wiper rubber to the inferior type. Before the change over, a genuine Honda wiper rubber will last me...
Your experience is getting me a bit worried now. When I picked up my new car in Jan this year. Three speakers were replaced within 6 weeks. My dealer did say that if the speakers want to go they will...
From your photo, the damage looks superficial (ie. no big crack or deformity). I would suggest taking it to a reputable panel beater which specalises in plastic repair. It will cost a few hundred...
The Euro is far more popular in NZ than the US based Accord as well. NZ is such a small market that Honda NZ only brings in the the top spec V6 US Accord which almost guarantees that the V6 Accord is...

4 years is not a bad life for a battery. Some might even argue that anything above 3 years is on borrowed time if you live in hot (or cold) climate. My car batteries do usually last between 4 - 5...
The famous power surge associated with VTEC has changed somewhat with i-VTEC (what CU2 has). With VTEC there is a distinct power surge when you hit the VTEC threshold. The threshold might be two...
Your car should still be under warranty. If I were you I will bring it straight back to the dealer to let them sort it out. After all that is the reason for paying big bucks, buying new for a peace...
I listen to music at level 9/10. I have never gone above level 12 for listening to music. Here lies the intrigue, it must be really poor quality speaker to have it blown at such low level.
Hyundai has improved leaps and bound and is now competitive with the Japanese brand. I am sure you will probably be happy with the IX35 unless you are a Honda die hard like me. For me I will take the...
If you have ruled out other factors such as unequal air pressures, suspension, bushes and joints then I would suggest that the alignment is not done correctly at the tyre shop. I have two occasions...
This is a very uncommon problem for Honda. Honda is generally pretty robust with electrical/electronic parts/operations unlike European cars (Audi, BMW) which are commonly plagued with...
A 4 - 5 months old battery is still very new. I would say you either have a defective battery (look for warranty replacement) or some parasitic load in your car which drain the battery unkowningly.
