Having changed the atf recently after discovered that it was low with the 1999 CR-V not moving as it used to. 4 quarts of mobil atf was used when Dw-1 atf couldn't be found. The car drives and select gears well now but sometimes when put at the reverse gear it makes one 'conk' noise.

Please, is it the gear that has problem or sordid or something else? The atf pan also seems overfilled.

Every can bearing ATF-Z1 label is FAKE, absolutely fake.

Z1 was fazed out by Honda since 2011, ever can you see around is a low quality clone from China.

Please avoid at all cost.

I'v noticed on a few drives now that after driving for a while my temperature is still stuck on 0 even when the vehicle is already warm. Although after a while it later goes up. I did a routine scan just now and this came up. How do I fix?

Without more details it seems the wiring to the ECT has been disturbed, or the connector/switch is not tight.

Partial contact.

Seen such an instance in which sometimes it rises to the middle at other times it falls once the switch was properly pressed in it stopped.

The car has recently been worked on it would seem.

Kindly check the car nozzles.... I had same issues recently and i had to check buy pulling out my spark plugs... I changed all four but it persists so i had to change all 4 nozzles tho it was confied just one of d nozzels got bad but i changed all four and its working fine nw.

Hello all,

i drive a. 2k5 honda accord, ii αve a problem.

While i'm driving i notice dat after i slow down or wen i want ϯo re-accelerate sometimes, the engine vibrates (shakes) until i lift my foot off the throttle completely, bt wen i put my foot back on the throttle it moves normally.


i thought it was the spark plugs causing this, but i've changed the 4 plugs with new ones but it still does same.

a mechanic said it's probably from the fuel pump.

Any ideas wat it is

Pls what seems to be the issue cos i had to even change my tyrod ends but still same

2, When i change gear frm pack to to reverse or drive, i hear a small cranks sound frm d left leg. I was told by a mech that its d 3 Boris n d inner shaft cup, and i should replace dem all. Pls is he correct abt the solution?

3, My powered steering oil dries up fast like i ve to top it every 2day, was told d steering rack is bad, my mech said i should get a new steering(26k) anoda mech said d old rack can be taken to wer it can be worked on perfectly n d leakage will stop(9k). Pls what do u advice house?

4,My AC cools very well before but wen its on it almost dtags d engine off or its so hard to trottle easily, all of a sudden it stopped cooling so i tool it to an ac man, he did all he could like changed d magnet, d pulley a supposed leaking hose n re gased.... Nw d ac sweats and chills on d engine but just little cool inside at mornings but at noon its rubbish, was told to change d valve, someone said d compressor is kinda weak. Still wen i turn it on the engine viberates heal on idle (on D4 and nt moving as i am on break), but it moves smoothly with d ac.

5, Lastly, i notice some engine oil leackage ard my distributor, and my engine oil shorts already... Like reduces daily, i just did servicing ending of April.

My fellow Honda owners I greet you!
My car - (Honda accord 2005 4 cylinder) doesn't accelerate fast from stop & sometimes loses power on climbing hill especially when the a/c is on. I noticed some improvements after cleaning the fuel pump & I regularly wash my engine. I don't have errors lights on my dashboard, except airbag light. Which is why I'm wondering what could be causing this. Cc: Gazzuzz, luvinhubby, nurey, adanny01. Please help me.

Thanks boss. My nozzles have been cleaned, the gear oil was changed about 2 years ago, then the color was pink but now it's a little brownish. I haven't changed the spark plugs yet.
