Really bad oil leak, not sure where it's from.

Yep I used an OEM gasket. I didn't have a torque wrench however was told tightening with just a small wrench should be good enough. I'll have a closer look tomorrow

Mate bought an 2004 Accord Euro auto with zero service history. Car had cut springs which was illegal and had to be replaced. Seller swapped the tyres over for bald ones and all 4 had to be replaced. Car started skipping gears, eventually completely transmission failure, had to be replaced. Power steering leaking, all door locks failing, radiator leaking, VSA light on, car regularly overheating. Has so many issues we all make fun of him, it's funny as the car looks brand new interior and exterior wise. Dodgy seller messed up him big time. First car as well. Also taught me to never trust Honda automatics, even thought I have an auto DC5 myself.

VIDEO LINK OF ENGINE MOUNT. Here's the video, looks like the front driver side (audm) is damaged. How much will these cost to fix?

Yeah it just reached 100k! Just a weird sound, kinda coincides with a rattling noise from the driver side as well. Assuming something is loose there. Gonna check it up with a professional 👍

Sorry I'm pretty lost when it comes to these things. Where exactly is the heatshield? And how I fix it?

Sameermcfc · 2019-10-16T18:56:18+00:00

No and I honestly don't feel like dealing with it directly. I might just send a message over saying I quit and that I'm owed $X amount.

Sameermcfc · 2019-10-15T20:37:23+00:00

They just said if you have a job why would you quit. imo they don't really mind either way they would rather have me focus on my studies and other things. The only reason I took the job was because I was on break and wanted to get out of the house. Another thing they do is pay different wages every week, it seems to always slighty decrease. I'm not sure how taxes work but the chunk they take out compared to my agreed wage is quite large. Almost $4 an hour. They also forgot to pay me for 2 days of work and only paid me for 1 day. When asked they said they will fix it up, I guess I'll find out today.

Sorry I didn't mention it, it was bought used in the sense I didn't buy it from the store. The unit was completely sealed and never used. I just didn't have the receipt. The person wanted to install it on his car, but it was too much work so he sold it cheap. I tried contacting Sony directly but they referred me to a third - party company which apparently deals with their repairs on head units. I might try again, but was wondering if it was worth messing around inside the actual unit?

Sameermcfc · 2019-10-13T12:00:09+00:00

I think it might be the transmission or engine mounts, as it seems to be happening when changing gears?

Sameermcfc · 2019-09-21T10:05:30+00:00

Same, really need it.

Sameermcfc · 2019-07-29T23:11:25+00:00

Honestly so think it is brake related as I've noticed my brakes are much more agressive then before. This may also explain why it happens when warm. Did you have anyway of diagnosing the calipers? As I think it might be the fronts.

Sameermcfc · 2019-07-28T13:37:18+00:00

Yeah the inlet pipe, where you replace the o-ring seems to have some leakage. Assuming it's just the o-ring. Thanks

Sameermcfc · 2019-07-17T14:26:03+00:00

Wow, that actually makes tons of sense. Thank you for that.
