Re: 2005 Honda Accord 2.4L Timing Chain Replacement

Not true, timing chain is a replaceable part. Engines with timing chain will last much longer than timing belt and it does not break but it does stretch. When it stretches, the cam timing will be off...

Re: 2006 Accord timing belt

I would not go with the Aisin kit because it comes with a Chinese knock off belt rather than OEM. If you do, buy an OEM or Gates timing belt and the rest of the kit is fine. I actually got a Gates...

Re: tcs chek engine light on and d5 flashing !!!

How many times did you change the ATF fluid? When is the last time you did that? As a rule, I always change my ATF fluid every 30K to prevent premature wear on the AT. Most AT will go out after 150K...

Re: 2005 Honda Odyssey AC compressor not turning on

Agree with mc. You will want to borrow or rent a set AC manifold to check both low and high side pressures to make sure your freon level is full and no leak. If it is low, repair the leak first by...

Re: P0341 Error Code

Re: 2003 Accord Coupe AC Diagnostic

First replace all the filters if you have not done so in the last 15K. Second, check the freon pressures on both low and high sides with the AC manifold to determine if the level is good. If the...

Re: 04 Accord Coupe V6 - Check Engine

Sounds like a lemon car to me. However, your CEL is likely linked to the P0172 code, not the others. If the fuel mix is too rich, your mileage must be poor and it eventually will damage your catalyst...

Re: ECU Help - P0966 Error and have been troubleshooting pressure solenoid / wiring /

You are doing all the right things to diagnose the problem. I believe that it is the ECU problem not producing the voltage necessary to trigger the AT solenoid. Most of the electrical relay or...

Re: 06 accord SE blows warm air from driver side

I would agree to check the freon pressure first before attempt to charge it. Overcharging the AC system will guarantee compressor damage or leakage problems in the near future. First run the ODBII...

Re: 04 Accord dead HVAC controls and radiator fan

Hope you had it fixed by now. If you did not, I would check the voltage between the terminals of fuse #30. It is hot all the time so you should have a voltage. If you do, your fuse may be bad even if...

Re: 2006 Honda accord v6 smoke under hood

Your ATF fluid service is way overdued. You will loose your AT if you don't change it immediately. ATF fluid should be changed every 30K. It is weird that your car passed MA inspection with the...

Re: 07 Honda Accord V6 - Automatic Transmission Fluid Drain & Fill

Re: Trying to bring back a 97 RL that has been parked for 6 years - ADVICE/RECOMMENDA

Re: J30A Question

Why would you want to do that? The old 2002 V6 is lethargic even if it has 200HP. Your V6 develops 20% more (240HP) and is much smoother than the old one. Plus I doubt that the old heads will fit the...

Re: Temperature Gauge question for Honda Accord 2007

Outside temperature gauge is standard on the EX and EXL. For the other model, it could be added but you have to get a kit from Honda. If you don't have one, I don't think it is worthed it to spend...

Re: What do you think of the 2013 Accord?

Re: 8th Gen Sedan - V6 or I4

It depends on how you drive and how far you have to drive. If your daily traffic commute is mostly city roads and slower speed, the I4 is more than adequate. This DOHC engine is rated at 190HP so it...

Re: 2003 TL 177k miles Tranny Issue. Works 4 15 minutes then stops

Re: 2004 Honda Accord EX Sedan turn signal and hazard light problem
