My beloved 2005 Honda Accord Diesel is to be a victim of Mr Khan's ULEZ in October. And it has suddenly developed a horrid electrical fault that has disabled the central locking, given a 'glow plug' fault code, put the car into limp mode, and done this to the dashboard. youtu.be/S9V0oMWVC9o - this happens even when the car is locked. Probably not worth even taking to the garage, is it.
I've had it - having searched this forum for my posts - almost ten years, and it cost me £2,850 and I should think I've spent £1,000 on it, outside normal servicing. The only time it let me down the AA recovered it for a 'gear box whine' that turned out to be an unbalanced wheel. Oh and when the garage had fitted a non OEM fuel filter - another long AA recovery. Can't blame the car for either of those. That's got to be some of the cheapest motoring ever.
So, what next? Suggestions please.
