Anyone else sick of their Cl9 (cant fix)

**thomwootton19** · 03-03-2014 08:43 PM

Seems like every time i fix something something else is buggering up over the last year.

Any help greatly appreciated.

front doors intermittently wont open even mechanically because actuators are locking down. theyre both new and my hands are shredded from dismantling the doors over the last few weeks. is there a fuse/relay for the door mechanism?

also a stupid effing whine from the belts since i rinsed the engine. also coincided with the doors stuffing up again.

trying to do everything myself as i can barely afford to DIY with uni and stuff so taking it to honda and throwing the keys at them isnt an option.

Love this car to bits but its reaching the "run it into a tree for insurance" point.

heaps of other little crap like map lights stuffed and seat warmer light wont come on but thats not so much an issue.

Thanks for reading

How old is your car? I have a CL9 facelift, it hasnt done much, but has been working fine. I've changed the battery, a foglight (a rock on the road broke it so no fault of Honda) and the stereo lights flicker time to time but outside of that, it's been solid.

its an 05 mate, the car is great its just never been perfect for more than a day. just done fuel filter, brakes, oil, actuators, to try and fix all its issues and it keep biting me haha

got an 04, well maintained, it's been hassle free.. replaced door actuators myself and they've also been fine.

the seat warmer lightbulbs blowing is a common issue, both of mine are gone, i just can't be bothered replacing them.

I've had it since new (2003)

So far I've done:

2 sets of headlights
1 new head unit
1 new door actuator

To be done soon:
Power steering pump
Aircon ... Got a leak
