  1. Needs a project thread dude, quick, go create one then edit this post with the link to it!
  2. So no RWD turbo beast either then?
  3. Still less than half what Honda would want! Plus a three year warranty too!
  4. Link to the dizzy mentioned earlier: http://www.ignitioncarparts.co.uk/PartDetails.aspx?s_pc=PDHO86UN&s_vid=7818
  5. I've found a place that will do a full dizzy replacement with all the relevant parts included and ready to go for £150. http://www.ignitioncarparts.co.uk/ My brother wants to unbolt the exhaust at the front of the CAT just to be sure it's not a blockage from the CAT or centre pipe, I'll entertain it but I reckon I'm probably right anyway but it can't hurt, provided I can get the car to him on Saturday morning anyway
  6. Get stuck in on the off topic section, you'll be sorted within a day or two
  7. Least that's the easier one to find too!
  8. What grade oil are you using and how many miles/km's has the car got?
  9. Yeah, if any of these extra wires were attached to the old switch you might need to attach them to the new switch so it looks like it did before.
  10. Just a matter of getting all the bits together, I figured if I have to replace one thing inside the cap, I may as well do it all while we're there!
  11. The only other idea I have is setting it back up like it was with the old switch, but on the new one if that makes sense?
  12. Same here! We're all not well then! Liking the eBay sticker, think you should get a pair of these! MB ones of course! http://civic5.com/forum/index.php?/store/
  13. Before you silicon it all wipe it all down so it's dry, then when it next rains or you can see water inside you'll be able to tell better if it's coming in from the screen or not, I thought mine was windscreen but it turned out to be the tail gate seal (weather strip Honda call it)!
  14. Yeah, then again hasn't yours already got one?
  15. Last night on my way home from work I went and forked out for a set of Bosch plugs and the appropriate tool to remove/fit the plugs! I dragged my dad outside at 19:30 last night to do it, the NGK's that came out were worn and old but not terrible, they also smelt of fuel, so at that point we were thinking that fuel was getting in, but not being sparked! Popped the new plugs in and a couple of goes on the key, coughing and spluttering she fired! Left her running for a while to get some temperature, she hasn't ran since Saturday! Got brave and took for her a short gentle drive, well as gentle as you get when the area has so many hills! To start with she felt better for the plugs, but as she got properly warmed up she was missing more and more under less and less strain, had to leave her in 4th to do 30mph on the flat it was that bad! But got her back home and left her running while I told my dad about the drive and you could hear her popping, a bit like you'd hear on a carb'd car! So after listening for a few minutes we believe we're barking up the right tree and plan to replace the HT leads, rotor arm, dizzy cap and ignition control module! Apparently the Bosch plugs use less power, so if the ICM is failing and not making the right power and changing the plugs helps then we think this is what has been plauging her! Managed to get the fuel pipe off the rail thanks to Jake's advice, took an age to undo though because of the limited space with the strut bar in place! Was a bit red from the injector cleaner still in the tank but otherwise okay from what I could tell! Hopefully once the bits arrive we will have her sorted! Feel a lot better for having managed to do something towards it!
  16. Can't grumble at that if you're not trying! But I have to agree, Radio 1 is sh1t
