    Car is laggy when put foot down

    Hmm strange. What ever u do tho don‘t get the cheap China TPS they fail so quick. Best is genuine Honda if u can locate one as they only usually available with the whole throttle body or go with the Acuity Hall effect TPS u can find online I picked mine up from tegiwa. Sent from my iPhone...

    Car is laggy when put foot down

    It‘s so annoying. I really don‘t know what it could be. I was thinking the cat too but I got a straight through skunk2 system so no cat lol. I change my TPS to a proper Acuity one. Too me it feels like something is blocked n causing it to struggle at low rpm, already cleaned my tegiwa box...

    Car is laggy when put foot down

    I know the feeling mate it could well be the o2 sensor but I haven‘t got round to sourcing one out yet. I bought myself a daily so not been driving the teg much. I thought mine could have been to do with ecu as well? It‘s running piggyback ecu. It‘s annoying because it‘s just happened out the...

    Car is laggy when put foot down

    Thanks mate. Yeah it still engages in vtec but if you half throttle it when you full throttle the noise is there but can feel trapped power like the cars not moving. I have always used vpower. I might try the fuel cleaner first then just get a set of spark plugs and TPS as well as clean my...

    Car is laggy when put foot down

    Skunk2 Mega power full exhaust. I dunno if it‘s blocked I don‘t know how to check. It‘s on around 130k miles it has good history valve clearances etc done. A local lad told me it could be the TPS? But I‘m no mechanic neither do I know what symptoms the TPS problem has. Sent from my iPhone...

    Shaking/vibration under acceleration

    I doubt it‘s anything to be too concerned about but it‘s better to get checked out. It does sound like wheel balancing you sure none of the weights have come off? It can happen. Also I had same problem on my old Lexus GS300 nobody could figure it out no mechanic in the end after selling the car...

    Clunk noise when breaking at low speed

    Yeah that‘s what happens I was just paranoid it could be something else. Are there any pads for dc5 that don‘t do that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Clunk noise when breaking at low speed

    It‘s really strange if it the pads because I‘ve never experienced it with any other car. Is it worth taking to a garage to have a look to see if it could be anything else? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Clunk noise when breaking at low speed

The discs are fine and the pads are too, car breaking is normal just the clunking sound is annoying. Any info would be appreciated. Cheers Sent...
