Thanks very much

Now, about my baby. Could anyone take a stab in the dark as to what could have all been damaged by this kind of impact. The car drove onto the flatbed, just with two flat tires up front and the front rims damaged. Car was still running when I came to a stop. I was wondering if the curb could have caused frame damage? Anyone think it might have? And do you all think the the suspension could be jacked up? Anyways... today sucks... I lost my baby, hopefully not permanently. Be in the end she kept me safe. GO HONDA!!! :sick:
It could work fine for a lot of miles while whining.
It seems as though it is not getting the proper air/fuel mixture. It seems to be burning excessive fuel. We thought maybe we screwed up on the placement of the timing belt so we went BACK in and double checked. No problems with the timing but after we put it all back the same fuel mixture problem was still occuring. We THEN took the head off and checked all valves at the machine shop and head OK. Then we put the head back. Same problem!?! THEN we changed the throttle posi sensor (TPS) thinking it may be that. Still the SAME PROBLEM!?! The snap-on scanner is saying "Map Sensor" but we never touched the MS (as it is on the intake).
We are str8 dumbfounded? My car has been on the lift for 5 days.Any suggestion/recommendations? Help! (PLEASE)??????
Thanks!!
I have a 2000 Accord with 185,000 Km's on it. Honda Canada sent out a letter in February of this year telling owners that if there car has less than 175,000 km, then tey should go to a dealer and have the transmission replaced and it will be covered under warranty. I took my car to a dealership last October when I had 172,000 Km on it and complained about my transmission being faulty and they said it would cost me $4,000 and at that time, Honda Canada had not sent out this letter. Well, I recently spoke to Honda Canada and they have asked me to send in the report from last October and also proof of the fact that I had my transmission serviced every 50,000 Km as per service guidelines and if I haven't had that done every 50,000 Km then the warranty is VOID? I have found the receipts for transmission servicing for 100,000 km and 156,000 km, but I can't find my receipt for the service between 0 and 100,000 km..................anyone have any experience dealing with Honda Canada or Honda USA in this type of matter?
thanks for your help.
Don't know how to remove the plastic screws to remove the plastic case. Might also have to remove battery and air filter casing?
Replacing passenger side bulbs is easy enough, also replacing drivers side high beam is also easy (but not the low beam)
Thanks
Thanks
I am having the exact same problem... and just got my 98 Accord used last Feb.2006.
Thanks for any help.
Please help me know what is my problem? Key? Ignition?Main Relay? and how can I determine which it is?
Thanks for the Help!!
I have recently purchased a 1998 accord ex-v6 with 39,000 miles on it. I'm not a previous Honda owner but this seems like a nice enough car. However I have a vibration that seems to be suspension related (maybe), or at least not engine related. I feel it through the steering wheel as well as the ride itself and it seems to come and go. It occurs while coasting or driving at a steady speed, especially around 60mph, but at lower speeds as well. The car idles perfectly and the acceleration seems smooth. I had the tires aligned, balanced, and rotated which alleviated the problem but did not eliminate it. Sorry for being so vague but I'm hoping that someone more technical than me can maybe at least ask me the right questions to get me going in the right direction. The tires appear to be relatively new as a final tidbit of info. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Sincerely,

I had an interesting conversation with a Customer Relations person from Honda Canada's Customer Relations Department. Unbelievable conversation it was. I was asked to send in copies of my transmission fluid changes since I purchased the car so that they could review my case for a new Transmission as I had crossed the km limit for the warranty extension that Honda came out with for all 2000 Accords. So, I had my wife fax them the stuff requested but my wife forgot to send them the transmission change receipts and only sent them the receipt that shows that I was complaining to Parkway Honda (a dealership in Toronto)about my trnasmission when I was within the km limit but Honda had not put out the warranty extension at that time and when they put out the warranty extension I was already about 4,000 km over the limit. PArkaway Honda advised that I need a new transmission but I didn't have the money to change it so I didn't get it done. And when I received the warranty extension notice I proceeded to speak to Honda Canada to see what they could do. So anyway, this guy Mark was the poster boy for BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE. He treated me like some criminal. He was patronising, and made me feel like I was trying to pull some sort of scam on Honda. I was shocked. He kept repeating himself like I was some 6 year old. He seemed to be a very angry individual. Granted, I disagreed with some of the logic that he was presenting and that's fair as I was trying to logically get my point across. Anyway, finally I laughed and he continued to talk down to me and so I couldn't just let him get away with being so rude so I started raising my voice and telling him to talk to me with some respect and then I said goodbye and hung up the phone. The kicker was when he called back from his direct line and said "We will not be serving you, good bye."
SHOCKING, FUNNY, AND VERY TACTFUL !!!!!
SOMEONE PLEASE ADVISE ME ON THIS. WHAT SHOULD I DO ABOUT THIS GUY? AT THIS POINT EVEN IF THEY APPROVE THE TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT UNDER WARRANTY, I WOULD STILL WANT TO REVIEW THE TAPED CONVERSATION AND FIND OUT WHO WAS SMOKING THE CHEAP STUFF - ME OR THE HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE REP. YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK - I THINK THIS GUY THOUGHT FOR A SECOND THAT HE WAS THE 100% OWNER OF HONDA CANADA AND THAT HE COULD REFUSE TO SERVICE ANYONE HE WANTS. THAT'S RIGHT - THAT'S WHAT HE THOUGHT. WHAT WAS I THINKING? OF COURSE HE CAN REFUSE TO SERVICE PEOPLE AT WILL !!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOOKING FORWARD TO FEEDBACK. AND IF THE CUSTOMER SERVICE GUY IS READING THIS - THEN YOU KNOW IT'S YOU I'M TALKING ABOUT AND YOU MIGHT WANT TO PURGE THE TAPED CONVERSATION IF I WERE YOU BECAUSE YOU COULD GET PROMOTED TO CEO OF HONDA IF THIS TAPE GETS OUT.
I'd recommend writing a letter, briefly stating what happened, what Honda needs to do to resolve the situation, and give them a deadline (2 weeks is plenty). Does Canada have anything like the US Better Business Bureau that you can report them to? When I do that here it usually speeds up the resolution process.
It sounds like your transmission hasn't been replaced yet, so if you need them to approve the transmission replacement asap I'd call Honda back and ask to speak to a supervisor. The customer service agent will probably try to resolve your problem but just tell them you will only talk to a supervisor.
I hope Honda gets their act together. Good luck.
As a matter of fact, I was told by a previous agent that I would have to provide records of transmission oil changes to them and that everyone has to provide it even if they are within the warranty km limit but this guy today told me that that was not the case. So mixed information was given, Anyhow, I can only find 2 tranny oil change records - one at 100,000 Km and one at 152,000 km. I cannot find my first tranny oil change as I moved often since then. So anyway, I spoke to the first person again and told her that my wife forgot to send the records that I had collected and that I only have 2 records. So I'll be speaking to the Manager tomorrow and maybe even asking him to pull up the taped conversation and make a case out of this.
I wil definitely keep you posted.

Total quaote was 1400. I am getting a second opinion, but I think I am getting.....I drive this car on paved roads, commuting - nothing out of ordinary
Any thoughts. The clunking is definitely from the front end
not sure where you are located but i am sure there is a way to get honda to fix this for you free of charge.
I took it back to them yesterday and now they're telling me I need a new exhaust pipe, which with labor will cost around $390. My suspicion is that they didn't do the timing belt right and ar trying to cover it up by finding something else wrong with the car.
Any opinions or experiences?
Always ask around, and even dealer price is negotiable.
I drove the car back, they checked the code which indicated the O2 sensor. Cleaned the sensor, and erased the code. Did you come back on. Three weeks later, the CEL came up again and this time, the dealer said the code is solid and they have to replace the front sensor.
My questions is if it is possible that somehow during the major service and timing belt/water pump/driving belt changes that they broke the O2 sensor. The dealer said it's more of a coincidence and based on my knowledge of where the sensor is, that sounds right since the sensor is not any close to any replaced parts, but would like confirm with you folks.
What's your thoughts?
Thanks.
HELP! Thanks emmye
is there a disconnect in the wiring harness for the bulb socket? seems like you should check for voltage there (i.e. maybe the socket assembly is partially unplugged).
but you could have a bad socket.
Thanks,
Brian
