@Spoilerx,

I bought 4 Packs of HCF CVT oils from a dealers from Tradefair market.

You can also get it from @Luvinghubby at Oyingbo market, search for @Luvinghubby here on Nairaland.

Be waring of were you get it from because of fake products.
My CVT has always been a so smooth ride back to back especially when you are going at constant speed, it drives so smooth, so smooth is the word.

Car TalkRe: How I Was Able To Stop "Belt Cutting" Wahala In My Honda Civic by idmoore(m): 9:32pm On May 31, 2025
Goodevening Everyone,

I have been following this thread base on my recent experience of timing belt on Honda Civic.

It is important say this that am an Honda fan, I Love their Honda cars, except for their few automobiles like the old Pilots SUV and the Ridgeline Picksup which I think they are not edge to edge with their other competitors.

I just bought a Toks Standard Honda Civic and just about after like 10days of driving the car, the timing belt snaps suddenly, a called a kazeem, he came and replaced the belt, moment, he started the car, the timing belt snaps immediately again.

We repeated this process 3 different time simultaneously within a space of 2 days, it still keeps cutting few seconds after starting the engine.

At this point the kazeem is getting frustrated, I was getting pained because of the costing of the timing belt.

When the 2 Senior mechanics came to examine the situation, they suggested I changed the 2 Gork pulley teeth., and also the bought tokunbo timing belt.

The kazeem guy, did the replacement, the he notice that the adjuster nut is not tight enough and the threading is weak and about to worn out.

He called, a turner to drill the adjuster thread and, and relighting the adjuster bolt.

After all these, he replaced the timing belt, and boom, everything seems perfect.

He reved, the car multiple times, and the timing belt seems to be perfect eventhough am still observing the situation.

All this processes took us 3 days, from Thursday to Saturday, Kazeem was already getting frustrated.
I was also getting pained of the costing and order of materials from Oyingbo to Ikorodu.

In the whole of this, what I learnt was the adjuster is a primary fulcrum in that process and the adjuster bolt must NOT be tight at all. If you tight the adjuster bolt or if it misaligned, it will cut the belt.

If the adjuster positioning is aligned, with the other pulleys and it loosen, a bit for it to adjust and undulating.

You are 100% good..

I decide to share my experience, inspite that, I love Honda Technology, it is just the technical know-how we suffer from, has a result of Bad Mechanics.

@Nurey
My 2014 Accord is a 2.4L engine with CVT.
Got is the car 2022 at 125,000 miles and it is 3years now, I have only change the CVT oil with HCF, 4pieces of 1litre bottles when I was experiencing jerking at between 20- 30 MPH.

I take my maintenance so religiously, the engine oil has Mobil 0w-20 from Mobil dealership.

No issues, at all..

I think most people that had issues, with CVT must have either used non-recommended oil or has totally neglected maintaiance.

Am fine with CVT, the starting can be slow but at optimum speed, Don't Dare it or under estimate it.
No issues, at all... CVT has been seamless..


@Chingyyyy878
I will recommend and rate the Honda Accord 2013 - 2017 over the Camry of same generation.

I own the Accord 2013 and my Elder bro own the Camry, 2013, i4 engines.
The only difference is that the camry has a good pickup.

Every other thing the Accord dusts the Camry.

Hence, my choice for the 1.5t engine or Hybrid for the Accord 2020.

I prioritise fuel economy, it is a Rule of Thumb for me.
Car TalkRe: Turbo Failure In My 2022 Honda Accord,sport Trim. by idmoore(m): 3:51pm On May 02, 2025
Thank you @Nurey.

I appreciates your feedback.

@Trymeee, Thanks
The 2014, Honda Accord is superb and great emotional attachment to it.

I think the @seatrade accord na N1.5T, truly my reviews as has correctly shows that most issues are from the 1.5t engines.

But I just wanted a fuel economy car, I DON'T drive like Formular 1 or Michael Schumacher.

I don't do all those James Bond Driving, maybe, just maybe once in a very very long while, I can do not certainly not.

Infact, I don't even rev. my cars, I just start the engine and engage to drive after like a minute or 2mins.

Am thinking of getting this car very soon, Honda Accord 2020, infact, I have watched a lot of reviews and comments but i think the 2019 upward has been modified better than 2018 the entry level.

@Kingreign, @Nurey @Heavenlybang,
What should I watch out in buying this car.

Is it true that Turbo engines are problematic to Direct injection engines.

I currently use a 2014 Honda Accord and want to upgrade to a 2020 Honda Accord.

Car TalkRe: Changing Transmission Fluid On 2013 Honda Accord by idmoore(m): 9:55pm On Jan 31, 2023
tsiriman:
I got a 2013 honda accord some months ago. Nice car, i thought it drives ok but it has this shift hesitation sometimes's on low rpm but I thought it was normal because it was CVT and I've never driven a CVT before this car. I heard with CVTs you don't feel the gears changing but with this car I could sometimes slightly feel the gear change at low rpm, just a slight feeling.

I did little research and discovered that the slight hesitation and vibration at low rpm is not normal and happens to some people and they solved it with a CVT fluid drain and refill.

So i decided to buy 4quarts of Honda 08200-HCF2 Fluid which is the recommended CVT fluid. I watched how the change is done on YouTube and then headed to a filling station. I practically walked them through the fluid drain and refill just like I had seen on YouTube, I refused any suggestion or advice from them, I just instructed them to do as I tell them if they don't want to spoil my gear. I even refused to use their funnel to put in the new fluid as I didn't want contamination so I bought a new funnel.
They drained the fluid, removed the old washer from the drain bolt and used the new washer i bought, then filled the car with the new fluid. We put in almost 4 quarts then started the car shifted through the gears as specified in the manual. After that opened the check bolt so as to gauge fluid. When the fluid gauged and started dripping from the check bolt hole as expected of guaged, they tightened and cleaned up everywhere.
But I had to tell them every step just like I had seen in several YouTube videos, these guys go mess your car up if you no dey careful o, I was in the pit with the 2 of them most of the time.
Most people who did it on YouTube just jacked the car up but I went to a filling station so as to access the drain bolt on level ground. The reason I didn't do a DIY all by myself was Because I didn't have a pit and I didn't want tho use a jack.

After the change I drove the car and It drove like a dream, no low rpm vibrations, no hesitation, the best part is that it now drives like a real CVT as you don't feel the gears changing. The car is super smooth now.
Its just incredible how a CVT fluid change could bring a huge change in the way a car drives.
I will recommend people who have 2013-2017 accords or civics to change the fluid atleast every 20k to 30k miles, you'll be glad.


The most important part is don't leave the job to the mechies alone as they will mess up your car. Very important.
Nice update man.
Thanks.

Do you still use the car, tell now.

Car TalkRe: Drive A Honda From Lagos To Abuja Or Use A Car Carrier? by idmoore(m): 10:06am On Apr 23, 2022
Infact, driving the car that long distance will make you attest to what you have bought.
I think most Nigerian likes short distance drives which makes our car engine unhealthy most sometimes, unlike the Americans that can drive cross country with their families.

Do you think Americans don't also that have insecurity issues along their border lines.
Enough, enough of insecurity issues along their border lines, but some of them still drives the cross country distances.

For me, I will prefer to witness a professional long drive on that 2020 Honda Accord having purchase a full cover insurance here in Lagos.
A long distance drive like that will make your car engine healthier and blast out your carbons.

Cars engines are not necessarily built for short or city driving all the time.
Long distance drives makes your engine healthier and in top shape.

Do you think, your HONDA ACCORD 30,000miles is only achieved through city driving in the USA, that's a lie if you believe so.
I can tell you that 30,000miles has cross the country like 2 twice if not more.

72hours to transport my 2020 Honda from Lagos to Abuja, I no sure say I go sleep for that 3days.

I prefer to buy full cover insurance in Lagos, get a well experience and patient driver and drive with with him, in less than 8hours broad daylight me and my car is already in my house at Abuja.

I love to handle such precious values myself, so I can account for it, I hate stories.

Kingdemu:
Trash as usual
Everyone as spoken well, as for me the cost to get the car to Abuja is not important but the safety of the Abuja should be the top priority.
I think I will get a well experienced and patient driver that knows the road terrain well and I will drive with him.
72hours is too long a time to commit my car to a logistics company at the middle of no where.

A well experienced and patient driver that knows the road terrain very well will avoid major potholes, more so your Accord 2020 shock absorber and brake disc obviously will still be at top notch.
Even my 2013 Accord absorbers are still gallant to the teeth.

InvestmentRe: What Kind Of Business Can I Start Up In Nigeria With 4million? by idmoore(m): 11:47pm On Mar 03, 2022
@OP
To the best of my knowledge building materials is a good type of business with good return on investment I won't advise you to go into cement, reason being that that profit margin on cement sales in small and at the same time it ties down your money because of the vaule on the cost of cement.
The profit margins on cement is just like 100 - 200 Naira but of you don't mind the profit margin, it is a cool business.
N4million might be small to begin a cement business on a large or supply scale.

Car TalkRe: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by idmoore(m):
accelion:
Hello guys, can I please get your sentiments about the 2014 honda accord? I plan to purchase the car week, and I am contemplating the Nigerian used to save cost. Is this a wise decision, or should I just opt for the tokunbo?

My budget for the Nigerian used (upgraded is 3.8m - 4m), while the price for the tokunbo (not upgraded) starts from 5m+. I don't have 5m now, but I can match it up. I am of the thought that if I get a well-maintained Nigerian used one, it'd be great as I hear the car hardly gives issues. Am I being Pounds foolish, Pennywise? I know you guys would say I should go for the tokunbo obviously, does that mean I can't get a good Nigerian used one?

I also think the car is for people in the middle class who can afford to maintain it. So the risk of buying an ill-treated, not-maintain Nigerian used one will be less. Is that a wrong assumption?


Now for the mechanical aspect,


Is the car an overall good one? (Yes, I will properly maintain it when I get it). If it is prone to issues, I'd instead save myself the stress. I am coming from the German and American car manufacturers' side - BMW X5 and Ford Edge 08.

What should I be prepared for in terms of expenses, minor and major issues, etc., if I buy the Nigerian used (most likely)?

Lastly, is anything wrong with getting the V6 version compared to the V4? Thanks a lot for your response and forget my questions. I can't be too careful.


Thanks, guys.
Please go ahead to purchase the Car.
It is mostly fault free if well maintained with required oils and fluid.
It hardly give you issues, and a good driving experience is assured.
It is a car I so much love, and I went for it.
It is hard for you to abuse the car because, it is very temperamental.
Any wrong oil into the car, it will show you it bad side immediately but if you keep up with the required oils.
You will just only put fuel and zooooom off

Thank you @Bagger

I saw registered Evil Spirit at good deals within the range of N2m but I prefer the 2013/15 model because there is alot of improvement in the 2013/15 and it is worth all the patient required.

You are correct.
I actually meant a Registered Toks Standard 2013/14 Honda Accord with a budget of N3m

I actually I saw a fantastic deal for N2.5m at Ejigbo, but I wasn't fast enough while I was still making a few research.
Am optimistic that with being faithfully patient.
Someone can get a good deal within that budget range, it is just a matter of time.
