  1. did you bleed the clutch fluid through, try doing that
  2. i think it could be your thermostat or cooling fan not working
  3. remove radiator cap and run engine for about 45 mins to purge the air out. top up the expansion bottle then replace rad cap. if that does not work then look at a new thermostat or check radiator for leaks. check oil too maybe oil pump could be knackered. garages never tend to bleed the coolant system properly on these mb civics.
  4. i leave it for the garage to do, £240 for belt water pump and tensioner at my garage
  5. http://www.carparts4less.co.uk/car-parts# try these for parts very well priced, honda wanted £50 for just a dizzy cap for my car i told them to get fcuc
  6. the purests on here recommend honda mtf only however 2 years ago i bought some gear oil which was the same viscosity and replaced mine which improved my transmission greatly
  7. replace the slave cylinder first then see if it improves which it should then change the clutch when you struggle to get gears. rich from leicester on here does them he quoted me a reasonable price for fitting should i need it
  8. when you do arches the rust comes through from behind the arch so you need to treat that then paint it with stone chip or waxoil
  9. the boot holding bracket sometimes wriggles loose so you just pull it up a bit and tighten the 2 screws
  10. im buying an aftermaket replacement kit and will be fitting it shortly will let you know my results
  11. have you tried testing the coil and igniter, the coil can go which is inside the dizzy unit. first thing though is check all the ignition relays and fuses next to the battery and under the steering column
  12. you have to get it hot to bleed it, also these aint self bleeding engines. run engine for about 1 hour with the radiator cap off keeping and eye on the expansion tank so it dont run dry.
  13. how do you know when you need to replace one?
  14. car has developed a clunck on full lock just wondered what it could be
  15. anyone replaced the friction plate on a 1.4 civic. is it hard to do/ does the engine have to come out or has anyobne got a howtoo
  16. philgor you aint to far away from me. thats good to know im always messing with my civic mines a 1.4
  17. my aircon made an awful noise at the pulley so i took a knife to the belt. job done
