This is a beast of a problem; and one of the first car problems I've ever had that my dad doesn't know how to fix. The story starts last summer, when the last factory speaker in my 92 Accord went out. I got a CD player and 2 speakers for Christmas, and had the CD player installed in January by...

Hi, I have been to several websites that provide the honda parts catalog online and still have a problem finding out what parts i need becasue they are providing 2 part numbers for the same part. I have called one part desk(southbay honda) and they were guessing which part i needed. even with the...

Looking to buy a used Accord (175k miles) and looks to be in nice shape, however during my test drive I did notice sometimes going from 4th to 5th caused a slight grind noise. Is this a syncro problem? Is this a progressive problem? Only way to fix is a rebuild?

Hello, I just had a good Honda buying experience, so I figured I'd share with you. In essence, I think the reason that I had a good buy was a combined result of the internet shopping tactic and happening to getting in touch online with a salesperson with a particular personal sales policy. First,...

Hi all! I'm still having an ABS problem with my '96 Accord EX-R. It's been acting up intermittently since late fall with no discernable pattern. The problem began when the ABS would consistently kick in under normal - light braking moments before reaching a full stop. IOW, every time I come to...

Hi, Folks. I've got a 97 Civic LX, 4 Dr, Stick/Air/ABS, in Toronto, ON, Canada. It's got 160KKms on it. (about 100,00 miles) I'd like to hear your opinions - about keep it for a couple more years and maintain it vs. trade it in.. (probbably for an accord).. I purchased it new, in 97, because I...

92 Accord with 200K miles, runs great, want to drive forever. Problem is it ocassionally will not idle worth a darn, drops off and stalls. Will go away for months then return. Have factory m. and the idle woes all should generate a trouble code- none present. Any advice fellas-suspect a vacuum...

Hi again all. Wonder if someone could point me in the right direction here. My former brother in law had this neon tape kit he bought. I don't know what it is officially called but it sticks on like auto pinstriping and hooks into the electrical system. When activated, it lights up, like...

The return elbow on my '83 Civic has a large crack in it thus preventing coolant from being returned to the radiator following shut down. Somewhere, I came across this item (coolant recovery tank) at a source that was quite inexpensive but at the time did not realize I had a problem with my...

I am thinking about a '98-99 Civic or Accord. What are their pros/cons Civic appears to be easier to service with more room in the engine bay. That is important. Is the VTEC technology reliable long term? What years did not have it? Accord is bigger and more expensive but is it more refined and...

Just took home a new CR-V LX. Need a roof rack. Dealer wanted almost $400 installed. I know the retail is $262 for the genuine item (08L02-S9A-102), and they go for a little over $200 online, with shipping. I see a Canadian outfit selling compatible racks on eBay for $136 delivered. Says they...

'sup all, I've got a 1993 Honda Accord and I'm going to change my master cylinder, as well as replace the brake fluid that's in there. I was thinking about letting gravity drain the fluid from the reservoir and replace the fluid as it drains. Is that a good idea? I wonder if I don't get it all...

The SRS light on my dash comes on and turns off at various intervals as I drive. I tried the two-wire reset trick, but that did not work. It seems to turn on/off whenever I accelerate or decelerate quickly. Any clues? Wiring, or sensors a little loose? Thanks, -- "To be sure of hitting the...

Hello, I have a 2001 Civic with an SRS light that comes on as soon as I start rolling. It stays on until I hit the brakes and come to a stop, and goes off again. No heavy packages on passenger side. Any ideas with this one? Is there a momentum sensor involved? Thanks.

Hi, I have a 1995 Honda Accord LX with 140k miles on it. The vehicle is smooth and good except for the AC, which failed twice. I took it to the reapir shop twice once last year and once the year before, but both the times it seemed to work for sometime (6 months) - before it failed again. Im not a...

While I was changing the alternator, I turned the crankshaft pulley (while the distributor was out), and I think the timing btw the cranshaft and the distributor is out off. The distributor rotor turns when I try and start the car, but nothing else happens. Does anyone have a clue as to what I can...

Got my 06 Accord V6 EX on March-14, it refused to start right after we drove 25miles back from dealer lot. Someone recommended the "flood" way described in manual, and it worked. At end of April, the car did the same thing again. We tried the same solution but it did not work that time. So, the...

I own a 98' Accord 4dr automatic. I love the car and have had it for some time now. Other than the typical "drivers side door lock switch not working" issue, my only problem is with the shifter. There are times after I put the car into "Park", I am not able to press the button on the shifter knob...
