Replying to: alnero (Sep 10, 2005 7:49 pm) I was wondering if you resolved the problem, as I had a similar experience with my son's '91 Accord today, and found your post on this forum. We adjusted the valves, replaced the cap, rotor, and plugs. Now, there is no spark. We have 12V to the coil. Earlier symptom he described was that when he hit the brakes, all the lights went dim. Also, the car has been hard starting, or only firing while the starter is engaged. I'm wondering if bringing the car into a warm shop amplified a short somewhere...? Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated. Funked out in SD, Hondan |

Dear All: What should I use to lub the weather stripping and window run channel? They're kind of hardened now in the cold weather. The plastic and rubber Honda used is getting cheaper and cheaper. I'm hoping lubricating these plus foam tape in the run channel will ease the rattling. Thanks. TTB

The title of this forum Honda Accord Owners: Problems & Solutions really needs revision. With over thirteen thousand posts, there are too many generations of Accords being discussed here now. There are probably not too many seventh generation (2003-2006) Accord owners who want to read about problems and solutions for Hondas built in the 70's, 80's or early 90's and vice versa. Since most members want to read posts related to their own generations of vehicles, and since the eighth generation Accords are scheduled to be the 2008's, I suggest that this be split into two forums, namely: Honda Accord: 1976 though 1997: Owner Problems & Solutions and Honda Accord: 1998 through 2007: Owner Problems & Solutions |

I think there's something wrong with this car -- a strange gas pedal vibration, and engine sound not smooth while gas pedal vibration is felt. It happened on my way home from a Christmas party last night. Odometer reading is only 420! I didn't feel the gas pedal vibration today. I did some search on this forum and found similar occurences! I wonder if this is a defect that needs to be addressed by Honda. Frustrated, ramida P.S. In a previous post, I mentioned that I had problem merging in a short-ramp fast freeway with this automatic transmission. After reading the manual, I found out that with the D3, 2 and 1 gears, I can drive this car as if I have a stick shift! Now I have no problem merging when I start with the D3 gear and then at the right moment shift to D. Awesome! On slow sharp turn with uphill drive, the "2" gear is my friend! I don't feel any lugging anymore, even if I carry a full load (family of 5!).

Replying to: ramida (Dec 12, 2005 6:28 am) A week back he asked me test drive his car to see if it really pulls to the left and I did notice the left pull, I also noticed the vibration in the gas pedal. I brought this to his attention but he did not notice it. I own a Mazda6 (V6), Xterra and a ranger, I don't feel that kind of vibration in my car/trucks. This was the first time I was driving the accord, the only thing that impressed me was the supportive driver's seat. I noticed the gas pedal vibration immediately and felt as if I was driving a diesel truck. |

Usually the digital display panel that includes the clock, HVAC, radio/CD changer lights up with the instrument panel the moment the key enters the ignition. Not any longer. It suddenly went dark, or didn't come on. Does anyone have any thoughts re the problem? Is it a bulb and if so is it something I can replace myself? I doubt it is a fuse because I doubt Honda would have a fuse for just one display. The radio, etc. seem to work fine, and the instrument panel and other lights, too. Many thanks for your thoughts.
