sandammy: Modern cars uses injectors so I see no reason why it should have a hard time starting when parked for 3 weeks maybe unless your battery was flat but I'm guessing your battery had some charge. If your check engine light is on , probably scan it incase it has a code related to that issue. Hard starting can be caused by alot of things example dirty throttle body, faulty or dirty mass airflow sensor, plugs, etc. For the humming sound when you turn your steering. It's causd by the power steering pump. Check if your steering fluid is guaged. If the sound doesn't go in a few days of driving, then u have two options. One is to fix or replace the pump and two is to use it like that so long as the steering is soft as before |

Timblogga: Go ahead and get the v6. I personally drive a 2007 accord v6 and I love it. It's quick , solid on the ground and silent. The 2013 upward will be even better |

nickyosas: P2184: Coolant temperature sensor issues. Get a rewire to check it out or replace it. P0533: AC refrigerant pressure sensor issues. P0133: Bank 1 Oxygen sensor slow response. Check for exhaust leaks , vaccume leaks , a broken oxygen sensor wire else replace if your checks seems ok P0010: check oil control solenoid usually found at the left side of the engine |

Timblogga: I don't know much about this year but what I do know is that all honda v6 engines are interference engines and they use timing belts. So long as you follow the maintenance schedule and replace with OEM parts on the due date you are good to go. As for speed it's pretty quick and reliable. Just try not to wait till your timing belt snaps. Oh and I think they use electric power steering so not sure how that works too I'm still in the hydraulic era lol |

baba4thegehs: No doubt, that's the security light. It will keep flashing so long as your door is locked. There is also security light on the radio for higher trims of that model. For my accord security light flashes both on the instrument cluster and the radio 2 Likes |

bobkezel: Oh yeah it's a DIY device. All you need is the Odb2 device and your android phone. Then you download torque lite app or infocar or any other vehicle diagnostic app from playstore. Insert the scan tool in your cars OBD2 port, turn on your Bluetooth and location service, open your app and that's all. |

Burchester: P0970: your transmission shift solenoid is bad. Image as shown below. This can cause poor shifting or delayed engagement. P0171: System too lean. Cars use air and fuel to a certain ratio. If too much air enters more than fuel then it causes problems same with too much fuel than air. In this case too much air. Check for a crack or leak in your intake hose the one attached to the throttle body. Also use electronic cleaner to clean your maf or map sensor, clean or replace your air filter and clean your throttle body. If your hose is indeed broken please replace it and don't fix it unless the fixer is a pro P0420: your catalytic converter is bar. Doesn't lose much of a problem just a slight decline in fuel economy. Fix or replace P0128: something is wrong with your coolant thermostat. Let a rewire check it out 1 Like

dayjeee: Whenever I hear conversion here in Nigeria I become uncomfortable because I don't know the level of expertise that went into it. Are you ready for the wahala that may happen in the future if something goes wrong? I'd say avoid it 3 Likes |

iamlarry99: What's your rpm when it's idle and also when the gear is engaged and AC is on. If you are in Lagos I can recommend a mechanic that can help diagnose it. If your engine mounts are good but the car vibrates it could be anything ranging from the throttle body, maf sensor, nozzles etc. You need a pro to check it out |

sylvez: This may need physical checks. If your in Lagos I have a mechanic who can take a look |
Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by Collione: 11:50am On Dec 29, 2021 |
emadamysy: Check your engine and transmission mounts. Also scan the car Incase you have codes relating to sensors that may cause vibrations |
Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by Collione: 10:24am On Dec 29, 2021 |
iamlarry99: If you have the check engine light on, kindly scan your car. Anything including the nozzles can make it vibrate excessively but I'd start with a scan . |
Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by Collione: 10:22am On Dec 29, 2021 |
sylvez: Can you describe the vibration noise a bit. Is it that the transmission makes a noise when you switch to drive or reverse or you feel heavy vibrations when the gear is engaged |

temi4fash: Honda isn't just synthetic blend but also fully synthetic. Fully synthetic is able to withstand high engine temperature better and it doesn't break down easily compared to synthetic blend. In as much as synthetic blend isn't bad fully synthetic is better |

tolajay: So long as you are using the original dw1 it will last however if the transmission fluid is pink then you are good but brown means it's oxidizing and needs replacement soon 2 Likes |

temi4fash: Any world renowned fully synthetic brand will do. But in reality most are expensive. Avoid name brands that are unheard of . And please only buy from a reliable source. 1 Like |

tolajay: What I do know is that the oil minder is fairly accurate/reliable. It uses sensors to determine if the oil is still in top shape based on trips, temperature, speed and other variables. Short trips and stop and go traffic wears oil faster. I'd suggest you change your oil soon since you have done 2k miles anyway you can push it to 2500 or 3k so long as the oil is fully synthetic but my real advice is to service your car to avoid stories that touch. Engine cost my guy |
Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by Collione: 9:51am On Dec 22, 2021 |
tolajay: So when you serviced it initially, did you rest the oil life monitor back to 100 percent because it doesn't do so automatically. And what engine oil are you using. |

yak: Lol now I understand your Train of thought. Sometimes it can be annoying but I don't even bother again. Everyone has a right to think like that. Nigerians definition of reliability is drive it till you hear noises everywhere and even if you hear noises drive it some more we forget that all these parts have replacement intervals. |
