Hello guys,
I have a 2005 Honda Accord (EOD) that is shorting oil. Sometimes around may, I noticed water had dried in the radiator (overheating), so I put water and have been observing if it drys again until I started noticing heavy vibration a couple of days later. So I did some routine check and I discovered the engine oil has really gone down below guage.

I was surprised as I had only serviced the car not more than a month before this issue started, so I called the mechanic who told me the oil was leaking somewhere (he showed me some part of the engine block where it was coming out from) and he suggested we replace the gasket and refill the oil.

After the mechanic had worked on it, I noticed this morning that the oil has gone down below guage again and I'm curios to know what could be wrong with the car.

Good Afternoon House. I have Honda Accord 2004. Recently I noticed some vibrations from the front wheel when I’m accelerating and this vibrations will start from 40km/h up till 80km/h and vehicle starts running smoothly from that point until I’m starting over again.

I visited a mechanic to help me check the from wheel shaft and all. He complained about the skeleton/bearing in the shaft cup for the right shaft (the long one) and said the other shaft bearing I.e the driver side is manageable but this vibration still persist after changing the passenger side shaft bearing bearings. The vibration is more prevalent on the driver side recently. All engine mounts are intact.

What could be the problem? I’m considering changing the brake disc for the driver side cos I kinda notice friction and also try and replace the bearing for the driver side too. I need expert advise from the house before making my decision.

Thank you all.

I need help regarding the picture you posted earlier.

The only code my Honda accord 2004 threw up was this and I replaced this stuff and the code is still showing up. The wiring is intact. What could be the issue, rewire dey suggest I replace ECU (brainbox)

What’s the solution please.

Conner44:


Either your VTEC solenoid is bad (picture below) or it’s wiring is faulty. Check the wiring first

Or worse

Your timing chain might have jumped a tooth, you should buy another timing chain and tensioner rod and take your vehicle to a mechanic that knows how to set the timing chain of your engine very well to do it before the chain breaks and scatters your cylinder head.

Did you clear the code after fix?

The check engine light is still on and it’s still the only code that’s up. If it’s cleared, it comes back on almost immediately u drive a minute.

Did you test the part you bought before installation?

Have you done your wheel balance and alignment? Are you tyres good?

What about scanning the car?

Brake disc only affect applying brakes

Change your transmission fluid. You can do a research on Google with the search parameter "transmission shudder". It is caused by contaminated gear oil making the car vibrate from 40km/h however the moment you stop throttling the vibration stops.

You need to immediately change your timing chain and it’s tensioner (rod) too. Take your vehicle to someone who can reset your engines timing sequence very well for this fix.

Don’t mind your mech telling you to touch your brainbox

showietee:


Good evening, please my 06 civic is not firing properly, whenever I slow down or climb a bump, it does not pick up back immediately and sometimes, I will have to turn off the ignition and turn it back on before it speeds normally.

Scan your vehicle and post its codes here. Also try to change your transmission fluid too

Have you resolved your issue?

Show a picture of the area where your leakage is coming from. Maybe it is a simple fix

Burchester:
My Honda Accord is showing P0011 Timing Advance ?

I thought I advised you before to either change that switch or change your timing chain and tensioner rod.

Good afternoon.
I have a 2009 honda accord. The car stalls at will , if I stop and try to move immediately it never picks fast. Also if I am accelerating the car hiccups. To climb into my compound I have to accelerate down. The gear is not blinking.
I did a scan it just gave me a p0301,p0302, p0303,p0304.
Changed the plugs and coils and serviced the nozzles but still same.
Please what next can be the fault.

If you’ve changed your plugs and coils then you’d have to check your nozzles next or the wires connected to the four of them. There might be a partial contact or wiring issue somewhere along that line.

Last issue would be your brainbox.

I have changed that. I learn it has to do with camshaft replacement.

Tires were recently changed, no contours or any defects. I did wheel balancing and alignment same day tires were changed at Enyo Fueling station.

I scanned the car and the only code that came up was the one I mentioned earlier in my previous post.

Namzy:

Yes. The range were very good compared to the former one but it was still the same issue when it was fixed.

Before tire change, where you experiencing that vibration?

Did you do any work before vibration started?

Shaft cup

Senior man,

Mine is Honda Accord 2007.

It idles well.

Fires well, but when it is cold and between 80 to 90 km/hr, the engine vibrates slightly and there is loss of power...

Any suggestions?

Namzy:

Yes, it was clicking.

There was no vibrations before tyre change. What I observed was my ATF was very short, I went to where I buy parts to meet with the Honda Technician to confirm what I found out, they recommended Honda Genuine and we added 3 liters of Honda Genuine ATF. I complained I had Oando Dextron 2 initially, why not drain everything then he mentioned something about the pressure reducing if we drain it all. At the spot I noticed droplets of oil where I parked and it was confirmed it was the gear oil, we cleaned the sump and all the gear base with petrol but didn’t notice where the leak was coming from so I took additional 1 litre of Honda Genuine ATF home in case there’s shortage and I can always top it up in the morning before running the engine. I have noticed shortage and continuous leakage of the ATF since then. Could this be the cause of the Shuddering Transmission?

Chief, I'm not a mechanic. My response to the other post was because I had same issue with my accord 09 and I took it to ebute Metta where a Honda specialist diagnosed and fixed it.

If you can, try and take your vehicle there. I'll give you the contact of the mechanic that helped me

I am not in Lagos.

Since you are sure the wires are good and part working. Also check that your engine oil has been recently changed and not low in any way, lemme have the exact code to check the honda service manual

After Scanning, the only code is P2646

This is quite easy just clean the filter of the vtec solenoid behind the engine for starters. If problem persists (symptoms like your car in limp mode and can't rev past rpm 3000) then you might need to change the sensor of the vtec solenoid. But I've had this code multiple times and cleaning the screen helps

Better still, replace the gasket/filter on the mouth of the rocker arm

I have done all that sir. It still coming up.

Honda is for starters.....Apart from Cross Tour, I dont see any Honda worth driving...

Honda is a very good car and more executive than toyota
