Excellent mate, appreciate the help. Just didn't know the model number of the bulb...now searching becomes easy. Thanks again On searching your info I found the model is a 286 1.4w bulb....with loads on ebay

you must lurk ebay the same as me then!

haha, that's shocking! Just stumbled across it and thought I would share!

Good old search facility threw me into this thread! Shame as I have the same problem...would have been good to hear how you got on/fixed the issue etc. Only been 2 years ago so guess you just forgot to let us know

Can anyone tell me what the heater control bulbs (number 4) are called please? And do the bulbs come out the holder / buy separate?

Spotted this in my lurking session at work. For anyone that is looking for one; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-civic-cup-holder-mb6-mc2-vti-/121593994422?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item1c4f911cb6#ht_27wt_1141

Erm mine but hey Like the mods mate, those dials are well smart! Now for the Meisters........

Like the plans for the S2000 mate If you want to sell those wheels to me then I will take them off your hands!

Thanks mate. It handles really well but it's not the fastest M out there! Does me though That's why I haven't went big on this car, just enough mods to justify what I use it for! Thanks! I do get frustrated (like Krzys when he had his MB6) but once it's all sorted, it makes me smile again

I know mate! As my car is built for trackdays and roadtrips, I had already decided not to do any more modding unless it needs things that need replaced, then it will be a modded part or OEM.

The guy came into my work before I started my shift and checked the new slave cylinder rod to make sure it wasn't bent or half in position etc. Then he looked at the clutch master cylinder rod and found that it needed adjusted. THIS solved the bite point! The bite point can't really be changed but the pedal height/position can determine where the bit is on the actual pedal (not actual clutch as its hydraulic). Simple adjustment cured it. But fitting all new parts at once does cause headaches when things go wrong as you need to narrow down to what is causing the problem. Now to my exhaust getting sorted at end of month as it has been temp welded due to fracture and ALL joining gaskets need replaced, probably due to being burnt alive! THEN need to get a Moroso sump ordered....then that should be it!

Yeah mate whole kit, Lock stock the lot. The guy came into my work before I started my shift and checked the slave cylinder rod to make sure it wasn't bent or half in etc. Then he looked at the clutch master cylinder rod and found that it needed adjusted downwards. THIS solved the bite point! The bite point cant really be changed but the pedal height/position can determine where the bit is on the actual pedal (not actual clutch as its hydraulic). Simple adjustment cured it.

I adjusted it back up on Sunday and it did it today. Adjusting the pedal height 8m told does not affect the bite point. The problems may be either; clutch disc in the wrong way New Slave cylinder rod not in right/bent Clutch pressure plate fingers bent. Will have to have gearbox back out me thinks. I should buy a Mario Balotelli t-shirt saying 'why me'

Took it to Honda today for them to quickly inspect bite point. Guy says it ain't right. Clutch slipped on way there and he could smell it. He says it shouldnt be a high bite point and to try bleeding it again. Failing that the box comes back out and inspect clutch bearing etc. But then that leaves me in a dilemma as if clutch fitted correctly....do I then purchase a Honda cluth and try that? I'm fed up now. Over £400 spent and to no avail. Pass me the shotgun

It was bled a few times mate. Release bearing looked the same but will try and email them to see if clutcheck was indeed the correct one. Just my luck...I'm gutted.

Bit expensive just to try parts mate. I paid for the work to get done. Will email clutch supplier and see about clutch model!

Where is the OEM bite point on MB6 please? I've had new clutch fitted and the bite point is uncomfortably high. Should it be half way down pedal press? I adjusted the pedal downwards as the clutch pedal was sitting higher than brake pedal. I adjusted it evenly but the clutch then slipped. I have adjusted pedal back to higher than brake pedal. What is happening?????? :(

My mate and I spent 8 hours yesterday repairing the car. I had full intentions of doing a 'how to' on this but in reality, I has too busy helping. The pictures I had taken, meant I had to wash my hands every time I needed to take a pic. I wasn't wanting to hold my mate back as we had a time schedule due to being in my workshop. I apologise but I was working that day also and was just wanting home. So no step by step guide on this one Anyway, Pressure plate fingers slightly worn; Note the piece of metal debris above the clutch disc; Worn out spring due to missing metal piece; The strip down; The magnet inside the gearbox shows sign of metal wear; Gold part is the Synchro; Time for a clean; New clutch installed; I also fitted new uprated gear linkage bushes to improve shifts. I will recommend fitting the Mfactory Synchros as the gear shifts are really flawless now. But really only if the gearbox is coming out anyway. Clutch pedal is easier but the biting point is quite high for my liking. I suppose I was used to the pedal being near the floor but this new bite point will take getting used too. Only some actual pedal height adjustments to be made now and I'm happy

The link you gave lists the B18c....so yeah, looks the same as DC2.

On a 1999 CRV it is a B20z that's fitted in them. Done my research when comparing sumps. Took a registration off an ebay sellers picture and put reg into works computer for details

Well i'm sure as hell not going to be mentioning carbon synchros mate....that's taking it too far!

I did think about lightweight flywheel but the cost of this repair is high enough...and no more major modifications getting done to it. I'm only spending on maintenance and keep on top of anything needing replaced. Like the porous sump, need to change that at some point too. Moroso do a baffled sump for around £190 so will get that at some point.
