Dedicated DA9 Q & A thread

[DA9-47]

yeah its been a hell of a time lol

only error codes i could get out of it, and mechanic also, was code 4 which doesnt exist as far as i'm aware :S i know they also tried hooking up a ecu reader to it to check but got nothing either tho i assume it was a very generalised reader as nearest honda dealer is in adelaide 2 hours drive away ugh

hey mate,

did allitle looking around for ya,

and people are talking about this "code 4" that doesn't come up on the ecu code list on www.g2ic.com/tegtips and naming it as a "CKP code"= Crankshaft position sensor , is your car in tune? have you had any aftermarket parts installed? adjustable cams?

some people said that there dissy was gone, or it was tuned to much retarded/advancement.

so yeah check that out man n c how you go aye

Cheers for that

Haven't had any aftermarket parts on the car to my knowledge as dealership wasnt able to provide full owner history at time. Mech reckoned that the bearings in the dissy were all stuffed tho so might just try getting a replacement for it first then go from there...anyone know a place to find one cheapish?

Does your car actual limit early makin u think its limp mode
or just refuse to accelerate, if refuse to accelerate check your timing, my timing was out i thought it ecu related, it was throwin codes, i changed alot of sensors nothin finally thought ill double check timing, as i had cam gears on it, but was off, so check that

as far as limit goes i never took it past 50, was in middle of town so couldnt do anything past it before getting to mechanics place, but accelerating was perfectly normal from what it felt like however after the replacement ecu was chucked in to test they took it up to 80 in a 5km drive and as soon as it went past 80 car started to chug and engine light came back on till gettin it back to shop.

Timing wise I actually had that redone after the new engine block was put in as old mechanic thought it was cause of fluctuating idle at time which ended up as dirty IACV :S never taking car back there me thinks lol well if can get it back to working order am lucky only live 5 mins walk from work

i have a squeaky sort of rattle coming from the back of the car? i searched and it came up with something to do with the hatchback, but i thought it would be related to the suspension as i just changed back to stock. it was still happening with the aftermarket coilovers but wasnt as obvious. any help appreciated cheers

[stevo716]

if its wat i had its the hatch striker squeaking, put some electrical tape around the latch not to much or it wont close, but just so it has a coating that stopped my squeaks

[espionage85]

rear trailing arm bush maybe?

[stevo716]

rear trailing arm bush maybe?

from my expierience the trailing arm bushes didnt rele make any squeaks, both da's i had did it, and i had almost fixed every single bush in rear of car and it still did it, with modified suspension or not, so when i finally got my 2nd car i researched lil more, turns out its the latch on the hatch, taped it up no squeakies xD

[ben11]

whats the hatch striker? the rattle comes from the left rear if i hit a bump on the left...same for the right side.

[stevo716]

if its a rattle prob something else mine used to squeak but just driving nomrally
