Hello everyone.

Tracy Baker here.

I recently puchased a 2015 CR-V for my wife. It's our first Honda, and she loves it. Since I'm new to these vehicles, I have no knowledge to offer, but plenty of questions. (Haynes doesn't even have a manual out for it.) So I hope I will not be too much of a burden on the forum until I get my legs under me.

We purchased it to replace our 2006 Nissan Repairshopfinder which finally had the grace to die.




Every one of these things I've seen, save one, has been this color.

Hey guys,
My names chris and I'm from NJ.
Currently driving a 2004 ep3. I'm also on ephatch.com. just thought I'd broaden my horizon a bit. It always helps to have a little extra know how on projects from someone who's been there and done it before.

Hello everyone. I have a 4 Cyl, 4 Door, 1998 Honda Accord. Runs great with 252K but a few things starting to go and I have been dealing with them OK. Here is my current problem:
I switched the manual door lock button inside the door, (small white button inside the door) and then shut the door. I know now that was a bonehead move but the door will not open at all. 2 questions:
1. Do I have to take the door off to access the white button?
2. What is the best way to take the door off and get to the white switch?
Any help will be appreciated.

Hello! I am so glad I have found this forum! I am on my second Honda Accord. My first was a 1995 and now I have a 99 Accord Lx with the Vtech engine and is going strong with 312k miles on it. We just had to do about $300 worth of work to have it pass our state inspection but it nothing major, mostly wear items. I love how dependable it is and feel comfortable hoping in it and driving 300 or 400 miles away and back with out batting and eye.

Hi everyone, my name is J, I work and live in New Jersey. I have a few "Honda" vehicles, listed below, and I found this forum looking for information on how to convert a manual mirror set to a Power mirror set on the #1 vehicle below:
1. 2009 Civic DX - Kids drive it (50K miles)
2. Acura MDX - Grown ups drive it (210K miles)
3. Acura TL - Kids and Grown ups drive it (250K miles)
4. Hyundai Tucson - Everyone drives it (60k miles)

I have done some research already in this forum, and have seen a couple of older threads on converting manual mirrors to Power mirrors, but haven't found an specific one for a 2009 civic.

We like the Civic and would like to keep it for a while, adding this power option will make it easier for all of us to enjoy.

thanks in advance for any help.
J.

New Member. I have a 2001 Honda Civic and my two son's have both recently acquired Honda Preludes, a 98 and a 99. Both are base models. I am sure I will be needing help so I will be appreciating the answers to my questions. If I can help someone I will post but I am sure others will have better answers. I hope I will be able to contribute.

Hi, all.

I have been scouring the internet for a Honda del Sol with Ultra low miles and stumbled upon this site. Glad to be here and meet you all.

I owned a '93 del Sol back in the day. I am looking to get one as my Ridgeline is lonely.
