Firstly, I would just like to thank you lot for all your help in the past, all I seem to do on here is ask for advice! Now, I'm in need of some more advice 😂 Car was running a bit sluggish, low power in low revs etc. Felt like the cat was blocked, could also hear it rattle. swapped that out...

Long story short. I've had my engine out, changed the head gasket, timing chain/tensioner. Timed it all up, put the engine back in. Plugged it all in, only leaving the radiator, cooling fans and aux belt off. At this point I was ready to go home, so I decided to see if it would start before...

Hey guys, I've tried searching but all links to a workshop manual seem to be dead. Does anyone on here know where I can get hold of one? If it's even possible? Thanks! Sam

Hey guys, so the seemingly impossible has happened, and my head gasket has blown. I think I know exactly when it all started, but it's definitely got worse over time, and I'm just now starting to see mayo on the rad cap 😩 I've removed engines and changed gaskets before, I work as an engineer...

This might sound silly, but is there a way to remove the 180kph limit but keep the speedo/mileage in kilometres? I've got so used to it running in kph, I also think it adds to the car! I've only hit the limit a couple of times but now I'm thinking of taking it out on track and I like the idea...

Has anybody on here changed a head gasket on the dc5 before? Just wondering how long it takes, and what the jobs like in general? Failing that, has anyone paid to have it done and knows a rough cost? I work as an engineer so i have all the equipment i need as well as a mechanical brain to do...

Hi Everyone. Anyone know of any good/trustworthy garages in the cheshire area, as close to Nantwich as possible ideally. Currently up here training for work, then driving home to essex at the weekends, and need to get my valve clearences checked/set for piece of mind doing all these miles. I'd...

Hi everyone! My names Sam, From Colchester in Essex. Got my first Dc5 back in November, but i told myself i wouldn't drive it until i had sold my current car (Civic ep2). so it was sat on the driveway, taunting me. I used this time however to give the car a check over, and to be fair, its in...

Hi everyone. Just curious as to what exhausts have been created by people on here. The thing that sparked my interest is that my car currently has a decat straight through pipe, and a huge backbox. unknown brand as it was fitted by previous owner and has no markings (that i have seen anyway) as...

Hi everyone! My teg's speedo still reads in kph, and I'd like to get that changed to mph. I've had a look online, and there seems to be a few way to do it. Just wondered if anyone has any input as to what's the best/most reliable way of doing. Any ways more accurate than others? Best prices...

Hi everyone. I've been to view a couple of dc5s and will be buying one. But does anyone know why insurance companies bring up any teg reg number as a Honda accord? If I call direct, nobody seems to know what they are so try charging silly money for them. I'm under 25 so some companies i know...
