    Driveshaft heatshield

    Kev, you can''t miss it when you get under the car. Jack it up and its on the drivers side. A short extension will be needed for a couple of the nuts. Think there's only 4 or 5 of them. Once off, use two sockets and a bolt in a vice to compress the spacers on the heatsheild. Don't over tighten...

    unusual noise between 3000 and 4000rpm

    Well still not sorted out the rattle, but the grinding turned out to be the suspension spring... On full lock the spring rotates a little. Does this on both sides, but for some reason it was the left one that was making all the noise. A spray of some lube seems to have done the job.

    unusual noise between 3000 and 4000rpm

    Mine has quite literally just started to rattle, that and the grinding steering rack when going to full lock to the left. All in the last week :( Is my car telling me something or is it just my timing :rolleyes:

    Have to agree with frag, other than that, not really much difference.

    Centre Console Light

    IIRC, there isn't. The bulb in mine has gone too and had a look at the unit. It looks like you'd have to replace the whole thing so I just ignored the face I only have two lights there instead of three.

    haynes manual

    IIRC the answer is NO. Would like one myself, but the only thing I've found is an electronic civic workshop manual. Not brilliant, but better than nothing. Covers most things, but is really old :(

    wind deflectors... any good?

    I've got a set of the Heko one, had them on the car for all of two days. Found the gap wasn't any good for smoking and god forbid you get your finger caught between the window and the deflector... Sharp edges, very sharp :oops: If I can be bothered, I'd go for the decent JDM ones. So if anyone...

    HOT Snetterton 07/03/09…

    Its surprising just how loud 105db is. Not sure, but a lot of car audio places can also do a noise test. Just let them think you are thinking of a new system ;) Looking forward to meeting you all again :D
