Hi all, I am still looking for a alloy wheel set for my civic es5.

I was busy with office works and did not get time to run for having another try with somebody.Still my car is only 7km/litre.

Normally agents have the genuine spares and that's why they are expensive.But did you have troubles with genuine Brake pads? Worth to know? I know the cost you mentioned is correct at agents and upul.But I found that low quality pads gives some black powders around the wheel.

Yes..The Best Advice...!!

Thanks..Chris and RASERSEDGE

a nice post

They repaired my car after a major accident and no complains about their work including paintings.All the expenses were paid by the insurance agents and I did not even see the estimate.I sent one of my friend for a accident repair too and he also happy with them.

can you PM the details of rohan.Thanks.

I went to agents for a PGM test and they said o2 sensor is ok and there was nothing serious in the PGM test.

They have a 5S standard workshop with modern equipment as I see.Mainly they do accident repairs and agents for many insurance companies.

O2 sensor can be tested by an obd2 based scan tool and I hope that Scan tools are available with many experts in the trade including Agents. Actually if it is faulty MIL indicator should come up and there should be some fault code related to O2 sensor and scan tool won't be necessary. I have got my O2 sensor tested by a scan tool from a professional and he confirmed that my O2 sensor is operating within the parameters.But he wanted to compare the readings with another car (same model) with a good sensor to confirm the condition of the sensor.So I have understood that when the sensor is weak it is very tricky to identify because most of the scan tools cannot see the difference between a good one and a weak one.A weak O2 sensor can be the reason for low fuel consumption and some times you only have to replace the sensor to identify the fault and O2 sensors are expensive too. By monitoring the sine wave out put of O2 sensors using some scanners it is possible to see the difference of the sine wave ( distorted wave form)generate from a bad sensor when comparing with a another car with a known good sensor.So still I am not sure about the O2 sensor of my es5 and still waiting to know the reason for low fuel consumption.

If the agent knows the trouble I think they should have a definite solution.i cannot understand why they cannot change it.So do you have to replace injectors or reset Ecu?

No.. Actually with 7 studs alloy.

Did u have a PGM test by agents? I have same trouble with my ES5 and tried with several places.Scan test says car is normal.I replaced the MAP sensor too for a test and nothing.But did not try the PMG test by agents .I also think the primary O2 sensor may be weak.But scan tool says it is ok.Still I like to replace the O2 sensor with a good one to confirm.

NO...I did not find a suitable one yet.
