    Any Honda gurus can shed some light on the pop up system light and how to get around it ? It would be appreciated 🙏🏼

      Had a similar issue with a newer civic, and I had to get the Srs ecu reset to erase the pop-up hood codes codes. It can not be done with regular odb scanner, the module needs to be removed and flashed.

    Hi Shak , love the videos. I would recommend getting a couple of small car ramps for working underneath the car, relatively inexpensive (especially second hand), take up no space and are much safer than leaving on jacks.

      Hi Daniel, I appreciate your input and I’m currently looking into getting a unit and maybe a proper ramp. We will see but I will probably get temporary ramps until then.

    Another great and honest video. Really enjoying your content and going to give this ago in jan25. Just one thing if you need a hammer to instal brake pads there is an issue. Much easier to take off, clean with wire brush and grease up. They will last longer for the new owner.

      The Honda Legends were always fully loaded! They were a step up from the Accord, an alternative to the BMW 5 series & Mercedes E class..

    That car for the US Market was called the Acura RL, and the adaptive cruise control was fairly rear option, and the only option for that car at the time. Acura referred to that option as the PAX/system, which also included run flat tires.

      True! Don’t know why they named it different for the UK which ultimately failed to sell.

    Remove the radiator and check the part numbers, it might be used across the honda range, might even find the same rad on an accord

      Luckily the part number is placed on top by the coolant tank.

      Maybe even find a local welder that knows how to braze and can repair the rad for not-a-lot.

    You definitely need your own work shop with a ramp. Not too sure who would buy this kind of car as there are so many others that offer luxury for similar price point jag, Mercedes, bmw etc
    Probably only lexus or Infiniti buyers could be drawn in. Good luck
