Merry Xmas People,

I have a problem with my honda accord 2008 V6. Wondering if you guys have experienced such, and any advice or solution.

The drive D indicator keeps blinking, VSA and caution indicators are on.

The car really jerks on entering/changing gears(AFT automatic transmission) I have changed the fluid, but the problem still remains.

My mechanic suggested I change the gear switch, but is really the cause? please what could be the problem here, and Advice/solution please?

Also, the car drinks fuel like a b****, Ajah to mainland just once takes more than a 1/4 of my fuel tank, i.e 3k naira. Please advice as this is absurd.

I also hear a faint rattling noise on the highway any time the accelerator is pressed. What could be the cause?

Thanks in advance for the comments

Easy fix, brake switch at the brake pedal is out of place. Place your back on your foot mat, and look up at the brake pedal you will see it.

Most times superglue and soft bathroom silpers cures that madness forever

Please I need help with my Honda accord fuel gauage. The gauage is stuck on empty even when I have a full thank. Took the car to the car electrician, after much testing he said I had to get a gauage cluster as the sender unit and other wiring are correct. I bought a new guage cluster from onitsha but was surprised that it didn't work. When connected to my car, the dashboard lights, speedometer and other meters worked but d fuel guage was still stuck on empty. My electrician said the cluster I bought wasn't for my car. He showed me the numbers on mine and the one I bought the difference was just in alphabet. Mine had AF before alphabet but one I bought had a different alphabet which I can't recall. He also said mine was a 2013 while I bought a 2014, but my car is a 2003 model

Please gurus in d house kindly advise, is it possible that a car of d same yr model would have certain different electrical components? Also if it was different like d electrician stated, how come other meters on the car worked except the fuel guage. Please I need ur thoughts so I don't spend more money returning something that isn't faulty cos am already suspecting that I didn't need a new cluster in the first place.

Morning oga gazzuzz, luvinhubby and the other gurus in the house. Pls my honda baby boy won't start in the morning or when I leave the engine cold for long. It started a while ago... Just changed engine and its still doing the same. The first attempt won't start at all, the second attempt would start but jerks then go off, the third attempt will start, jerks and go off. I will have to keep accelerating till it starts and keep my foot on the accelerator for like 2mins before it start acting normal. If I switch the engine off and turn it on immediately, it starts after then. Some thing like a cold start issue. Also, the fumes coming from the silencer is watering the eyes.

Car runs pretty well! Just this issues! I experienced it before changing the engine, still experiencing same now. Please help!!!

I got this Honda Accord 2004 last year and I serviced it with MILEMASTER 5w-20. Right now its due for another service and I cant get the Milemaster 5w-20 around, even the dealer on Konga I got the last one through said its presently not in the market, he then suggested I use LIQUI MOLY 5W-20.

Please, your advice is highly needed.

1st,The air from passenger side vents is colder than that of the driver side vents.
2ndly, the vents on the far left and right for both driver and passenger hardly blows any air out unless I increase the fan speed to the 4th or 5th speed.
Any resolutions
