Fitted EBC green stuff pads n discs to my tubby made an improvement in bite and stopping distance.

As you originaly used your car as an example to dispute my first post which related to an early 406 (1996). I therefore had assumed you to have an early 406. :? ....You must have a later model with a transponder, poss with the plip that must be pressed before the engine will start. In 1997 there is ...

when the keypad is in auto keypad mode the imobilzing and demobilizing is operated by the activation and deactivation of the remote locking.(anti-start system) If the system allowed you to operate the remote locking while the key is in ignition position one you would in effect be trying to imobilise...

Had a drive recently, the engine in the honda is great, its got a smooth progresive power band and is fairly quiet fore an oil burner, it was well equiped, has a nice dash layout and looked pretty good finished in black and wearing 17" shadow rims and sport suspension. Ride was good too!

How about a Honda Accord dci- revs like a petrol, good mpg, goes and handles well and like all hondas rerry reliable of course
As for what not to buy- DO NOT contemplate current Saab 93 tdi!

The fuel presure regulator isn't adjustable, its factory set. (unless you have an after market one fitted like i.e FSE valve) Its located just before the fuel rail. ( Pipe going into it pipe coming out of it) on the drivers side.

D8 2.0 turbo petrol exec. Serviced every 9k, semi-syn oil, Shell v-power or B.P. Ultimate fuel every fill up, or at worst 97 ron super plus...Purrs like a pussy cat!!

Guys with moded 406t's- would be nice to see some under bonnet pics, i.e. uprated intercoolers and pipe work etc...thought about replacing the standard intercooler with something better, don't think factory one does a particulary good job, but it looks a bit tight at the front for anything bigger?

Just tried the ten second sequence thingy and it worked Great!!
Cheers fibr!
