eBay Links? by
Preston
Is it OK to post a link to an on-topic eBay auction in this group? I
don't want to upset the locals if that kind of thing is frowned upon.

2003 Accord Radio Display Problem by
Mike
I love my 2003 Accord EX. But I have a problem that the dealer says
will only cost me about $1000 to fix. Last week my radio display just
went dark - couldn't see anything - no climate information, time, radio
stations, etc. Nothing. The unit continued to work OK - I can still
play the radio...

Redline MTL in Honda tranny. by
Randolph
My transmission is getting a little harsh when shifting into 2nd,
particularly when cold. A friend with a VW says that his old tranny
(180k miles) shift a lot better after he put Redline MTL in it.
Somewhere I believe I have heard or read that people have experienced
premature failure of the...

Poor gas mileage (2005 Honda Civic LX AT) ~25 MPG by
Jerzy
According to spec the gas consumption is 29 in the city and 38 on the
highway. However, I can drive about 300 MI before the "low fuel" light
comes up (which according to the manual would allow me to drive
additional 25/30 miles). Most of the time (90%) I drive on a highway.
According to the spec...

performance, but this had been changed by replacing the condenser on the

change made, so when i revisited this situation again last weekend, i

'05 Accord Battery by
Dave L
I have an '05 Accord LX manual purchased in August '05, with almost 34k
miles on it. When I checked the battery today the status indicator was
clear and not green. I've never had the battery drain and need a jump start
before. I called the dealer to inquire today and was told if it went bad,...

OEM Online Honda Parts Sites by
Elle
My 91 Civic is due for some new ignition wires. I started
checking OEM online Honda parts places that I have used in
the past. Shipping seems to have shot through the roof. From
reports here and some other shopping, I have become vaguely
aware that dealerships increasingly offer parts online at...

1988 Honda Accord won't idle when warmed up by
[email protected]
On the way to work last week, my Accord died on me when I took it out
of gear (manual trans) as I approached a stop. It restarted but, would
not idle unless I held my foot on the accelerator and kept it at about
1000 rpms. When it's cold, it idles fine but as soon as it warms up
you can watch the...

08 civic warm up issues by
loewent
-35C here this morning.
My daily commute is about 35kms, mostly highway. I started the car
and allowed it to run for about 5 minutes. The block heater was
plugged in, so no excuses for being too cold. After the brief warmup,
its about 100ft to the highway, then highway speeds.
The temp gauge...

Majiin Will
I have 91 Accord with JVC Kameleon and Speakers. No alarm or no
keyless entry. I live in an Apartment complex. My radio has been
stolen once, the glass was just smashed in.
Any tricks you've used?
The two tips I've seen are also be a red flag at the same time. Rather
paradoxical:

Pszemol
One of the item on the dealer's 60k maintenance list is:
Adjust Intake/Exhaust Valves, Replace Valve Cover Gasket
My question to the group is: how involved is this procedure? How do you
adjust valves on this engine? Are they really adjustable? I am not a
mechanic, but I have heard about...

Influence of window opening vs. A/C use on fuel economy by
Gordon McGrew[_1_]
It has become popular lately to claim that turning on A/C uses less
fuel than opening windows. On a recent round trip to Kansas I used my
handy Scan Gauge to check milage under different operating conditions.
(What else is there to do driving across Missouri and Kansas?)
I checked the calculated...

No charge, no speedo by

Hi, I'm new to the group, but my daughter has a Honda now so I'll be
lurking.
I didn't find anything on this exact problem in a search so:
Vehicle is a 1998 Civic DX 5spd.
Dead battery prompted a test of the alternator, which wasn't charging at
all.

weeks ago or so) they are all 10% ethanol. besides form what I've been

keeps going up steadly, and then one day I notice a 10% ethanol sticker,...

Experience at Honda dealer by
pichula
I went last week to a Honda dealer to trade in my car for a new Accord
Value Pack (VP, base model). I was surprised by all their tactics to
get the most out of my money. I don't blame the salesperson because he
was nice and helpful, but I think the sales manager went a little too
far in his...

Why do vents default to outside air? by
Jeff
Just wondering--whenever I use the AC, my Accord keeps defaulting to
outside air (as do most newer vehicles, I've noticed). I drive mostly
in traffic and don't like to breathe exhaust fumes filling the car, so
I'm continually resetting it to recirc. But I'm curious as to why
outside air is the...
