Hey guys. I recently bought a 2003 Honda Accord (EOD) and would love to change the fluids starting from the engine oil. Can anybody advise on where I can get a good Honda 5w20 engine oil in Abuja? Thank you.

Chat me up 07034581213.
I stock genuine car oils and fluids.

No sir... Autocorrect

Please I noticed the Battery light of my Car take a long time before going off and when it does the sound of my car engine changes. More like its taking time to come up. Happens sometimes not all the time. What could be wrong?

Also, there is been a lot of noise when am driving my car. I have changed the bearing for the hub and still same. What could be wrong?

Please how much is original leakage and shock absorber for Honda City 2007.

Thanks

This suggests your alternator is not charging your battery as it should. Like it's been suggested already, I agree you should replace the alternator to avoid getting stranded one day.

You must first listen for where the noise is coming from (front right/left or rear right/left, engine bay etc) and when the noise occurs (e.g. when climbing a speed breaker, when turning steering etc). The information will be useful in determining the most likely cause.

Personally, I like the smart look of Civic.
I may consider a Nigerian used 05 Civic when I'm ready.

Go for 06
Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by ak22(m): 9:30pm On Jul 28, 2021
My 06 Civic is doing 470km for full tank.
Is it normal ?

Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by berbs112(m): 1:49am On Aug 01, 2021
I have 03 Accord. Recently I noticed some noise from the driver side front wheel, I checked in with my mechanic and he advised I changed the Hob, I did that, two days later I same noise was coming from the owner side front wheel, I checked with the mechanic, he drove the car himself and went to check the alignment, when he got back, he told me I have to change the lower arm which I did also but the noise still persists. I decided the vehicle won't kill me lol. The next day I was leaving the house when my vehicle started struggling to move with some cracking and grinding sound from the owner side front wheel, but moved normal after a while, I went to the mechanic immediately which is not far from where I live. He confirmed to me that the shaft head (cup) needs to be replaced, I did that too lol. Once completed and paid him, I was about to move same thing still happened, he said the only thing that could still be causing that will be the hob for the owner side which was fixed and the noise and movement was normal.

My point :

I am having this grinding and cracking kind of noise from the back wheel gradually just yesterday evening. What could be the cause. I need advise before deciding to visit this mechanic again. I don't joke with my vehicle wheels.

Pls I need help on my honda pilot 2004 model.
Sometimes the pedal does not respond to acceleration while driving. But throttle again or thrice it will respond. Then I have to throttle continuously for about 5 to 10km before the acceleration will normalize. I have changed transmission oil (using original honda Atf), engine oil, plugs, cleaned nozzles; yet the problem still persist( though doesn't happen all the time). I've really spent gud money but the prob still persists. Any suggestions/soln will be highly appreciated.

Carry the vehicle to an experienced auto electrician and scan the vehicle. The codes that pops up will indicate the likely cause

What type of brake system does your car use? Disk or drums?
Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by berbs112(m): 8:05pm On Aug 01, 2021
I really don't know the difference oo lol. I know there is this shiny silver plate and there's this stuff that looks like piston inside as well.

I understand, is it the same thing you see when you look in the front wheel that is also at the back ones or does the back wheels own look different?

70-80amps battery is okay and any 5w30 weight oil would be great
