Re: Door Handles

Spoke too soon on a previous post. Passenger handle now not retracting at all. Now that quite a few of us are approaching if not already out of warranty has anyone had any success in Honda honouring the cost of repairs beyond 3 years? It is obviously a design weakness as so many of us are finding. M...

Re: DIY Fix: Door Handle not retracting

Reading peoples issues with the handles, I thought maybe a preventative solution would be spraying with silicon from the outside on a regular basis. My handles seem fine at the moment, but worry about water freezing during Winter and frosty mornings and putting extra strain on what appears to be a f...

Re: Accident

Sorry to hear of your woes. Had a customer recently reverse into front left bumper. No real damage, but bumper had to be removed and refitted as it became unclipped on top edge. I did have this showing in the dash so I’ve booked in to a dealer to get it looked at tomorrow. Also entering a roundabout...

Re: Wheel alignment

I needed a full four wheel geometry adjustment following unusual tyre wear. Could’ve left Japan with things out of alignment but more likely occurred due to hitting humps at the same pace of its predecessor …a Range Rover.

Re: Reasons to get the Honda E

My memories turned back to the hot hatch era when I first bought my e. Not one to normally carry out mods on my cars but after 2 years of deliberation I widened the track and the turn in has improved no end. Looks bad ass. I know spacers have been talked about before on here and hope I’m not repeati...

Re: Masking headlights for a meaner look

I considered it by using black duck tape. The concept car had ‘eyelids’

Extended Range

I might be being a dafty but I took my e back to the dealer to get a replacement 12v batt under warranty as it has let me down so many times with the possibility of damage to the plates. However while I was there a second update was made with the car. And charging 100% it shows a range of 140 miles....
