If the OP could confess as to a Honda, what would he confess when he drives a 2005 Altima not to even talk of a 2008 altima? And I'm not talking about even the 3.5L V6 SE models.


truth is Japmobiles aren't designed to do a particular task, they're designed to do set of varying tasks satisfactorily.

lomomike:
Shitshappen and refreshrate, don't start that German vs Japan automobile rivalry if you don't appreciate this the vehicle in question pls stay clear from this thread.

Thanks for your cooperation.

Don't worry the first step is to believe.
God will see you through my brother

Hello Oga, I am looking for ECU (brain-box) for this car, do u know where I can source it from (year 2003)

benzmatic:
EOD Euro spec (my personal preference).

dubsy20:
Thanks for reviews guys, but seriously no one said anything about the shaft issues that dissapoints many EOD owners on the road and leaves one of the front tyres facing Lagos and the other facing Abuja.

elshanAutos:

I’ve personally used the 2003 EOD i4 (manual) 2004 EOD i4 (auto) 2005 EOD V6 (auto) & 2007 DC V6 (auto) and I can authoritatively tell you if that ever happens to you, it’s only as a result of fake parts and nothing else. It’s not a Honda problem.

dubsy20:


I really appreciate this feedback, but please does it mean fake parts are responsible for the high count of EODs that had this issues on the road.

lonelydora:
I'm blushing. Proud owner of V6 2003 Accord. I will buy it over and over again.

igbsam:
I've been driving my EOD for 5yrs now and it sometimes give me serious problems. Maybe the winshes in my former homezone, but since i moved away from my former house to a new apartment, it just feels like i just got a new car without doing major repairs. Though some minor fixes needed like the cranking shaft, non working AC and blinking D light when driven for like 30mins. The car seems okay. Infact, i do drive it to ghana and it has never dissappointed on the way before.

SAVEDBABA:
The transmission something, how true is it

lonelydora:


Lies Lies Lies.

As long as you use DW-1t transmission oil, you are fine

benzmatic:


true talk I guess, many owners of the 4 cyl spec would swear by their cars, they are usually completely satisfied by it. Even some enthusiasts recommend driving the 4 cyl first before making a decision. I guess one has to drive both cars to really know. I haven't driven the 4 cyl before though, but the 6cyl has disc brakes front and rear, while the other has rear drum brakes, 240hp against 160hp also seems quite much when driving at extreme speeds, my bet is the 4cyl engine would be wailing by then. Both are excellent cars still.

abatically:


The LX and EX trims of the 4 cylinder have disc brakes, only the base dx comes with drum.

micklplus:


Truth but, the engines are still the same, no?

obekediamondfuto:


my broda, it is not! so is it original parts that is being used on a Camry that will prevent the kleg? not at all my broda...

sienna Odyssey, hilux ridge line, Camry accord, hiace...... I don't even wanna know the Honda counterpart..... ask urself the simple and seemingly obvious question,

adanny01:


No

2.4L: K24A4 vs K24A8
3.0L: J30A4 vs J30A5

Conner44:


Please have you come across the 2.4L K24A6 range of Honda engines before? I purchased a new engine for my eod but later found out it’s not the regular K24A4 and if I go on google there’s never any mention of the K24A6 series.

nurey:


pix of the engine.

Also are you sure it is not KA20A6?

Conner44:


I had to buy a new engine as the former one lost much compression and was shorting oil. The car had no check engine lights at all and everything else works fine. Then came the change.

After mounting and fixing, the new engine started but was going off once you took your foot off the throttle so someone checked the timing and it seemed to be working fine.

After I started using it I noticed that if I switch on the ac and the car is idling it vibrates so badly that the whole car is shaking. The only way to stop the vibration is by increasing the idle speed (which isn’t proper). My usual idle is 700-800rpm but when I switch on ac it drops dangerously first and almost stalls the engine before rising to 600rpm steady but vibrating. I put in another iaac valve but the symptoms still persisted.

I also noticed that once the engine is properly warmed up after driving a distance and I come to a stop and switch to neutral the tachometer first settles at about 800rpm then if I don’t use the throttle after about 10seconds it settles down further to around 600rpm. My old engine never behaved this way. If I should switch on the ac at this point the engine usually stalls 90% of the time.


All the engine and transmission mounts are good because they were checked. I scanned and got two codes. P0341 (camshaft position sensor A), P0747 (Pressure control solenoid A stuck on)

I went online to find out the exact vehicle this engine was for but can’t seem to pinpoint it. Then if I go on Honda site they don’t even show specifications for this K24A6 range of engines.

When the Mech was Installing the engine he swapped the portion housing the water pump with my old engine because he said the new engine’s own wasn’t compatible. So I took out the water pump from the new engine and put it in my old housing to use (I’m talking about a unit on the K24 engine block which houses the water pump)

I just wish I could know what exact car used this engine so I can understand it better and know how to sort it’s codes. The only issue I’m having with it is that it vibrates with the ac and the idle speed not adjusting as it should.

Please do you know the symptoms of the balance shaft not functional on these K24 engines?

From Googling around.. It seems the k24A6 is from the 3rd gen honda odyssey(JDM)

Are you sure the engine mounts were not "worked"..

Some years back a friend unknownly bought a 2004 accord with CRV engine installed.. He never enjoyed the car till he replaced the engine & tranny with the correct one

GAZZUZZ:


can't even find the engine on Wikipedia sef
