Parts for 2007 Honda Stream

blueandgreen · 10-06-2023 2:22pm #1

Hello,

My 2007 Honda Stream failed the NCT. It's a Japanese import. Apparently, I need to replace the rear shock absorbers. I have searched online and been in touch with suppliers in Ireland, the UK and Japan, but have been unable to locate new parts- the mechanic is reluctant to install second hand parts (he believes it will fail again). It's getting to the point where I think I will have to get rid of the car, which would be a shame because it's been dependable and low-maintenance up until now.

Does anyone know of any other options I might have. For what it's worth, these are the parts I'm looking for:

Rear shock absorber parts (left and right):

Have you tried motor factors as i got Rear brake shoes and cylinders for a 1989 chariot.

Autocare.

thanks @greasepalm

Yes, I tried motor factors. However, the mechanic says he doesn't want to install second hand parts in this case, so I'm looking for new parts

Autocare are a local motor factors doing new parts and all they need is your reg , some motor factors do other makes and can source them as i would keep on checking .

Not all factors get parts from same place and source from different companies.

Also Jap Parts.

Motor factors don’t sell used parts.

I found both parts on Ebay within a few seconds. I’d be fairly amazed if your local motor factors can’t source them for you. I’ve never had an issue getting parts for Jap imports. Only problem is they can be expensive sometimes.

If you can’t find new parts then buy used parts and find a new mechanic
