    BuddyClub N+ replacement top mounts?

    Hi Carl, Thanks for that! I have spoken to the garage who have also been in contact with SPD who has also forwarded them pictures; we have a bush set on order for the front struts and the OEM mounts are being returned. Hopefully these bushes sort the issue and apparently it will. If the...

    BuddyClub N+ replacement top mounts?

    Hi mate, Thanks for your input. Unfortunately the car is at the garage so can't get some pictures of them. I'll ring the garage and see if they can get a picture sorted for me. In the meantime i'll also try TGM again as I believe they may have originally installed these and completed the FRSU...

    **** Great News, Forum saved ****

    This is amazing, glad the forum has been saved! The new layout looks nice and clean too. Just out of interest; what are the typical annual running costs for a forum such as this?

    BuddyClub N+ replacement top mounts?

    Hi all, I've just had the car in the garage for an MOT and the top mounts and bearings have come back as an advisory. I've asked the garage to fix the issue so they ordered the OEM top mounts - which took nearly 3 weeks due to the recent cyber attack on Honda! Problem is, no that the parts...

    Full Fluid Change - recommendations and suppliers?

    Thanks for the info Carl. I'll have a look later and see what spec they are - is there anywhere I should look on the coil-over to see the exact spec? Cheers, Carl.

    Full Fluid Change - recommendations and suppliers?

    Hi Jordan and thanks for the input. I never really thought about getting engine oil from Honda as generally I usually go with branded Shell / Mobil etc stuff. However, the other stuff i'll get from honda so thanks for that. ------------------------------ With regards to the top mounts, as I...

    Reg plate sizes and best place to get

    Thanks mate I appreciate the vouch! The number plate area is a pretty grey area but with BSAU 145e coming out in the next year or so (after this brexit malarkey) I believe they will be more clear. However, every plate must have the bs number and company information printed on the plate; if not...

    Developed high pitched Whistle noise

    Just a thought but could it be interference coming through the speakers with the signal and power cables from your head unit being too close together? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Aftermarket wheel nuts

    I used to have d1 spec lightweight and the garage used an air gun to remove the wheel and cracked half of them... I then went to standard for a while... However, I have since bought some muteki extended lug nuts and i'll just make sure I put standard ones on for when I go to garages etc.

    Front no. Plate dilemma

    I can understand this to a certain extent but for private plates I think a rectangle plate looks best and these only look good on the sides of the bumper. That‘s my own opinion though! With regards to number plate dilemmas, see the group buy or website link in my signature! PM if if you have...

    ITG Maxogen replacement filter?!

    Hi Giblets, cheers for the comment and recommendation. For piece of mind and for continuity I decided to purchase a replacement filter and tubing as they're already bonded together. However, ITG don't supply the aluminium tubing anymore - its now black plastic. I've changed the filter over now...

    ITG Maxogen replacement filter?!

    Hi Chewy, I spoke to ITG directly and they said the same although they did quote me £112 delivered for a replacement filter with aluminium tubing for a direct replacement. Not sure if that is expensive for a replacement aftermarket filter but I guess its the only option I have! Cheers, Carl.
