looking to get the vss speed sensor for my baby, got one from the guy that was braking just like mine, but its different and doesn't fit . i cant find them on ebay or anywhere else. Phoned LingsHonda and they offering me wrong part, worst is that i cant find it in the pictures in LingsHonda parts catalogue. Anybody knows the part number or where i should be looking...

Are auto and manual ones different?

Good question...

What model is yours/that pic from?

this pic is from the net, but mine is the same and it is auto.
i have bought one from the same reg auto lude with the same engine, that was braking in scotland and it doesn't fit... looks like triangle, that one you can find in ebay.

If it's from the same year/model lude but it doesn't fit, that sounds a bit odd!
So, facelift auto... There's a white 3g breaking in Leicester at the mo (think it's listed as being in brum

). That's the one that Phil and I ravaged for bits on Sunday. They're taking the engine out of it either today or tomorrow I think (and probably not in a delicate way) so if you want the vss off it, give them a call tomorrow morning asap and ask for it!

Wurly/ phil, can you grab the passengers side windscreen arm for me please. let me know how much. Where's the vss situated that 91p is looking for? I can have a gander at mine tomorrow, if necessary, to compare, mines facelift. I may also be in need of the FITV or IACV, not sure of its proper name, as mine is hunting badly in neutral and park when the engine is running, but not under load.

that's why they didn't chop the front lower panel off for us last week!

Please tell me in the process of removing the vss you didn't damage the front lower cross member or the upright that holds the bonnet release latch?
