Can anyone tell me why the air filter housing is getting engine oil inside it on the engine side of the filter.The car has only done 45375miles ,and only serviced by honda cardiff.. I have taken the car back to honda with a high pitched noise coming from the turbo only to be told they all do that.(the noise i mean), i only discovered the oil when going to change the air filter today. Could there be a problem with turbo oil seals, or engine breathers being at fault.Any advice would be welcome as i predict i will have a fight in my hands to get honda to admit to a fault.I would like to get it sorted as there are only 4 months left on the warranty.And would struggle to find the money to replace something like a turbo which would no dought cost a fortune. Thanks to anyone who can shed some light on the matter. Gareth. Read more
All diesel engines do this.
What, fill the airfilter box up with oil?
There are many entries on this site regarding misfire on nissan micra from 1995 to 2003 (K11 model ).
Many mention timing chain, camshaft sensor and so many other irrelavant items that I have lost count - whilst I'm sure the advice given is well intended, most of it is completely innacurate and misleading.... Read more

My parents have been living in there bungalow for approx. 2 years. I have a small building business. There existing garage was dilapidated so I am going to build them a new one. The old man who lived there before my parents was by neighbouring reports suffering from dementia. The boundary line is shared to the right hand side with two neighbours, both have dug up sections of the boundary hedge and erected fencing on my parents land within the last 5 years by there admission. The neighbour directly to the right have reluctantly relinquished , However the neighbour to there back garden is the ex-chief constable of sussex . He visited my parents and told them that there was nothing they could do about the fence and if they touched it he would cause them trouble in a round about way. The very next day my brother (who lives with my parents ) was pulled over by the police feet from the driveway. He also stated to my father that the oak tree (that used to be in the old mans garden but is now is in his ) he bought from the old man for £50. I would really appreciate some feed back on this as my parents do not have the money to go through the courts. I have posted the situation on you tube here is the link. www.youtube.com/results?search_query=ex+chief+cons...e

It is my understanding that one can obtain a copy of a neighbour`s deeds if their property changed hands within a certain time scale.If the purchase was before that cut-off date then obtaining that info wont be possible without involving due legal process.
I have some bigoted and awkward neighbours who are averse to certain groups of people(aren`t we all?).It will be my pleasure to sell this property to one of that group ....there`s even an adjoining field the new occupant/s can utilise:)...
I am looking buying a newish car - my short list is Honda Jazz, Toyota Yaris and Ford Fiesta 1.0T
I can't help thinking the Fiesta ticks more boxes, however my over-riding concern is log term reliability, and I'm unsure how good new 1.0T engines from Ford will be over the long term. Long term to me is 8-10 years with lots of short stop journies. When it comes to quality and Customer Service I have found that Ford are OK only when compared to Honda and Toyota... Read more

When I leave my car for two weeks it just won't start. Battery is fine but it takes about five minutes before the car splutters into life. This has happened twice. All the time the car is driven regularly I have no problems. Any ideas? Read more
Seconded.
Is there a rubber priming bulb? If there is, give it a few squeezes to bring the fuel up to the filter. If there isn't a priming bulb - fit one! It makes faulting fuel problems so much easier, and indispensible when changing a fuel filter.


Thank you very much for the link, I have music again yay! Very much appreciated :)
