Hello My fellow Honda Enthusiast please I recently got a Honda Accord 2012 last month but yesterday I noticed something that got my attention. The D light blinking on it's own even when not engaged. Please what can be the problem and solution to this.

Scan the car and share codes

I need advise people. Have never own a car. Wish to buy Honda civic as my first car. I saw one nigeria used civic 2008. Seller said it was bought brand new in 2009, is it advisable to buy a nigeria used car bought new in 2009?

That's too long ago for a car used in Nigeria. You will need a good mechanic to inspect if it's really what you wish to buy

Doesn't matter, if the owners maintains it well!

I bought my 09 civic bought New in Nigeria in 2009, and it was well maintained, and am still using it till date with zero issues!!! Milleage was 89k when I bought it and now at 96k and still counting.

Just take a good mechanic along (be sure they will not cajole him with money coz mechanics can be something else)

Wow distant. You need a good rewire to fix it
Thanks for replying but the issue is getting a good rewire to fix it. What do you think the rewire should check as in probable causes to the problem? Thank you

thank you, I also share you opinion. But the question is, those nigeria used cars that we buy, do we know how long the owners have used them? I dont have money for tokunbo, so its still Nigeria used i will buy even if i decide not to go for this

Hello,
Pls why does my gear delay in shifting? If I don't rev hard and take my foot off the gas, the gear does t shift, and I believe that's not good for my engine.
This is my first automatic car as I've always used manual gears...
Pls what do I do?

I remember when my 98 CRV was giving me the same problem, then it was hard to shift from first gear to second gear I had to rev hard then remove my leg from the throttle before it will change to gear 2. I tried a couple of things I changed the oil, I serviced the solenoid but at the end of the day I had to buy a new gearbox.

Just like the civic, it doesnt pull legs

leg pull is synonymous with accord 1994 to 2007 they corrected it on the 2008 model.

every cars pull legs, my younger brothers corolla 06 had its front leg flying out some months back, it solely depends on how your mentenance skills speaks.

How long have you owned the vehicle? Seems your car radiator fans run on the thermostat, which is normal.

The sluggish movement seems to be nozzles or plug coils related

Some wires are touching where they are not supposed to. Take it to an electrician to check where the fault is from.
