    cheers Jim, Don't think that it's the immobiliser - it's got a factory optional cat 1 alarm / immobiliser (rather than the ECU one) and that just stops the fuel pump afaik (it arms after a certain time from the fob being used to open the doors, so i start it often with the imobiliser active.... normally in petrol stations... when the engine dies after 5 seconds and it looks like I've stalled! ). Alternator is interesting though... I've actually got a spare because mine has been a bit noisy for years, just never got around to fitting it yet. Sounds like I need to dig it out of the "parts to fit" box

    Every now and again after running the car, if I come back to it (eg after dropping the little one off at nursery) nothing happens when I turn the key.... ...nothing at all.... lights on dash go out, but no sounds of anything trying to happen or clicks or anything. ignition off, try again, and starts as normal (sometimes takes a few extra cranks though). Anyone else have this or know what it could be? My lsi eg used to do the same, but then I used to have to leave it for 10-15mins or so. I mentioned it to a garage once, and the mechanic said that his mate's civic did the same and they didn't know what it was. odd

    Not sure if there's problems getting stuff delivered now, but the Honda parts websites in the states have pistons for stupid cheap prices compared to the uk. Worth checking out itr pistons oversized?

    Nope, was surprised to see this so soon... Stuff from the states doesn't normally arrive too quick.

    When it does do it, how long does it last for? Mine's maybe 20 or 30 seconds. It does happen as well when there's a lot of standing water around (never used to do this though) which makes me wonder if it's when the lamnda gets wet. When it does this, if i drive at higher revs and get the temps up to dry things out it stops.

    It's the UK one, but it's not the same as the b18c4... Pretty sure that it's 2.25, and the b18c4 one is smaller http://cars.homenetcs.co.uk/honda-civic-mb6/motor.htm
