New to the Accord World.. CG5.. Some general questions..
Hey guys,
Bought a 2000 Accord SE. 4 door, auto, AC, cruise, etc. etc. Pretty much loaded except for leather.
I have a few issues; going to take it in this week, but wondering if you can give me some pointers.
First, the SRS light is on. It was hooked up to a diagnostic computer, but didn't show any codes. In my civic I can jump the ECU to pull the codes via the diagnostic port - can I do this with my accord?
I also have a gas leak. After the car sits for a while (left it over the weekend and came back) I can't smell any gas. After I drive it for a bit, you can definitely smell gas.. I'm thinking probably a fuel line? Is there anything that normally goes on these?
Lastly, I'm guessing it doesn't handle cold well? I went out to start my car (I'm in Canada), and the car didn't start today (it's minus 25-C/-13F). I pulled my battery (I had tried boosting it), to put it in the garage to try warming it up. The car worked fine since I got it Thursday, with no problems starting. The only other thing that I'm wondering is the starter? Do they tend to go on these?
Thanks for your help.
