Good morning House,

What brand of 5w20 oil can I make use of in my Honda Accord? Maintenance light just came on at 15% plus I can't find milemaster engine oil which was the last one I used. Suggestions and advice please. I also need original coolant, the ones I saw around not good at all.
My location is Ojodu-Berger, Lagos.

Thanks .

You can use the Toyota 5w20. It is excellent for the Honda. I have it on promo sale at 2,500 per litre. You cannot get it anywhere in the country at that price

You can reach me on 09086679585

1. v6 Honda accord baby boi 2001 is consuming abnormally my fuel and its giving me concern. Pls what should I do cause my Mech has check it, and said he has corrected it but yet still persist.
2. The car will not start once but twice. If I want it start once, I will have to delay it for like 3 secs. What is the problem
3. Whenever am moving, the car will not change gear smoothly. It will look as if its sluggish or pulling back. I use Mobil atf
4. My dashboard and packing lights are not on. I ve try to adjust the dashboard light but it won't on.

Honda guru's in the house pls tell me what I should tell my Mr Kazeem and Mr Rewire to do. Thank u.

from my little experience, scan that car to see why it's taking so much fuel

For the dashboard and packing light, it's controlled by one fuse, check in case the fuse is cut.

1. Make sure 'a kaseem' has not removed the bulb for your check engine light.
b. If it's intact and no cel light, your fuel pressure is going down due to leak in your full system. That's why you have to turn your key 3 times to build back the pressure before it can start.
There's a return valve in your fuel pump compartment, it can allow fuel escape back to the fuel tank, thereby reducing fuel pressure. Check it.
Check around you fuel rail, and supply hose for slight leaks.
Or better still use a meter and check your fuel pressure, to tell if your pump is ok.

2. That's the reason you are having a bad fuel mileage. If still, no cel.

3. Don't try to use any other atf than honda dw-1, it will give you peace of mind.
b. If no CEL clean the screen filters in
* A/T clutch pressure control solenoid
* shift control solenoid A and B
* lockup control solenoid valve
* second clutch pressure switch
c. I will advice to flush your atf and replace with dw-1

4. You are suppose to get a CEL with all this malfunction, if you are not seeing light on your dash, like I said, make the haven't tampered with your dash bulbs. Iv seen those quacks done it before, so you won't have to be disturbing them about the cause of the light. They feel since the car runs and drive CEL is not needed.

Those are my quoter.

My mechanic suggested I change the automatic transmission but any more advice please, based on the codes above?

My ogas... Please my honda eod 2005's V6 engine rattles and drags at lower gears... It also rattles when stationary. At higher gears, the rattling and dragging is still present but reduced. What could be the cause?? If you were standing in front of the car, the noise seems to come from the left of the engine... Thanks in advance.
