    FN2 Roof rust

    Not yet. Mentioned it to the dealer when I had it serviced, said he'd take pictures and send it to their body shop, then the body shop would ring me the following day. Didn't happen. Rang the dealer the other day and got the usual "service line is busy, we'll call you back." Going to try again...

    Good track days for novice in NW?

    Yeah, like the look of one at the end of June by MSV at Oulton. £240. Will check Anglesey as well, see if they're any cheaper!

    Good track days for novice in NW?

    After having to buy new shocks, calipers, pads (Mu NS400), discs and tyres (PS4S) for my FN2 (joys of owning a decade old car). I'm interested in doing a track day in it somewhere close to the North West, to really get the most out of it. I've heard to avoid track days you get at car shows, was...

    FN2 Roof rust

    Haha, could be true! Gives me some time to prepare my ammunition. From reading a few threads, it seems like my options are either call or take it to my local dealer, state that I know it's a common issue and see what they say. If they tell me to get lost, ring Honda UK and complain.

    FN2 Roof rust

    Hi guys, I bought an '07 FN2 in October, a week later I took a picture of the roof where it meets the windscreen, thinking the car may not have been affected (yet). See below. Fast forward to now, through winter, this is what it looks like: As you can see it appears to be starting to...

    A pillar chip repair

    Cheers mate. Just thought I'd get someone else's opinion. Just seemed a bit steep for a 1 1/2" chip to me. Think it's too deep for touch up so I've booked it in anyway and am going to be a lot more careful in future.

    A pillar chip repair

    So I clipped someones wing mirror last week and broke my wing mirror glass, wing mirror skull and bottom plastic. But it also chipped the A-pillar somehow and the black plastic strip along the top of the window glass. I got a quote from a local reputable body shop, they said about 1.5 hours...

    FN2 How many were Type R FN2s made?

    Have searched the forums and Google, but can't find anything, only that around 600 Championship White cars were made?

    FN2 Starting Issue

    Yeah, not sure if the battery has been replaced, it’s a 57 plate. I’ll see if I can get it tested and also try reconnecting it. Everything standard, have a charger plugged in the cig lighter for dash cam (which doesn’t seem to charge but the charger light comes on). It’s been fine this...

    FN2 Starting Issue

    Had the car a week, went to the shop last night and upon return to the car, unlocked it with the fob, put the key in ignition and no dash lights came on at all. Turned key still no lights or anything. Popped the bonnet and had a look at battery connections, seemed ok. Banged on the red plastic...

    Brake pads and fluid?

    Looks like they only have HC800s in at the minute.

    Brake pads and fluid?

    Perfect! Is Hendy Performance the best place to get them from?

    Brake pads and fluid?

    Cheers, I'll give them a call and see how much it is. Are there any less dusty pads but similar performance / price? If not I'll order some DS2500s.

    Brake pads and fluid?

    Hi, just got a 57 plate FN2 and had a dig through the service history (6 Honda and 1 specialist), not completely happy with the servicing as there were long periods between services - 16, 20 and 22 months between some of them, the last one being 15 months ago. So I'd like to give it a (level...

    FN2 '57 FN2 Aux

    Legend, cheers mate. Just watched a video of a guy fitting it on YouTube and it doesn't look too bad. Though it was a lot easier on my Fiesta! I've emailed Dynamic Sounds about the USB one as I can't find it on their site and it'd be nice to have USB power as well!

    FN2 '57 FN2 Aux

    Hi, Just bought a '57 plate Milano Red FN2 and noticed that it doesn't have Aux or USB, just a cigarette lighter in the centre compartment. I'm wondering what the easiest method would be to fit an aux cable? I've tried searching the forum but it seems like all the threads are from a few years...

    EP3 Drive-by-wire

    Interesting, why is that? More control over the throttle? Yeah, I heard that they made it feel a bit heavier at times on the facelift? It probably won't bother me either, will be better than my MKIV Fiesta anyhow :D

    EP3 Drive-by-wire

    Thanks, it seems to vary manufacturer to manufacturer. i.e. I was interested in a BMW E46 330CI (very different car I know), read that it had crap throttle response due to BMWs early DBW system. So it is something I thought I'd check on the EP3s. The only thing now I hear is the EP3s lack of...

    EP3 Drive-by-wire

    Hi, I have searched the FAQ but no luck. I read that all Civics (maybe even Hondas) have drive-by-wire throttle since 2006, instead of cable throttle. Obviously a cable throttle gives more feel/feedback/response, etc. Does anyone know if this applies to the EP3 also? I have seen a nice 2006...
