vibration by rcc8179
Dec 14, 2003 (4:03 pm)
In fairness, I should say that the vibration is not too bad with temperatures above 40-deg F with the A/C (or defrost) off. I live near Indianapolis, and temperatures drop well below freezing in the winter and it is usually hot and humid in the summer. So I do notice the vibration about half the year.

Seeing that this is my first Accord---having bought it on the assumption that I would have zero 'problems' right from the start---on account of the acknowledged 'quality' ratings on record over the years---and the positive experience with our '95 Civic----I am rather disappointed! My Rabbit, Mazda 323, and '90 Jetta all had 'start-up' problems; I certainly did not anticipate any problems with the Accord---even though it was an early '03 production model---! What am I suppose to think? Will Honda eventually 'come clean' on this condition?
What exactly is their 'track record' on matters such as this? I am willing to learn.
Looking forward to any and all for 'answers'.

What would happen if I removed the A/C filters and did not replace them?

2003 accord by nacho2271
Dec 15, 2003 (3:55 pm)
I bought a new 2003 accord 3 months ago. Since day one I'd noticed a fog on the inside of the back glass. Now, with the cold temperatures, isntead of a fog, is ice inside the glass!!!!. I can not clean this properly, especially with freezing weather. What can I do about this? I called the dealer were I bought it and they were not that much of a help. Any similar situation? Thankyou for your response

the rear window defroster doesn't work? by ral2167
Dec 15, 2003 (3:58 pm)
do you keep this car garaged overnight? or outside? have you used your rear window defrost?
 
seems to me you shouldn't have ice inside on the glass. sounds like some broken seal. but i'm not an expert.
 
sounds like a simple warranty item to me... am i nuts? talk to your salesperson.

When I changed mine at 24,000 miles they were very dirty (grass, dust and grime). I live in a low dust area and I only drive on paved roads. I was surprised that much crap made it to the filters. If you leave them out that means you will get to breath all that crap, plus it will gather around your condenser, which will impact your air conditioners efficiency.

Crank seal by scout2003
Dec 15, 2003 (5:41 pm)
I have a 2000 Honda Accord with 75,000. It's a five-speed manual LX. I just had to replace the rear crank seal. I find this unacceptable for a Honda or Toyota. I'm concerned that this is a sign of things to come for this car. Anybody else hear of any problems with rear crank seals on 2000 Accords?

Same here. The car was foggy for a few months.
But after driving the car more often, the problem went away.

This isn't something I've heard of before but, anything can happen I suppose.
 
You find this "unacceptable"?
 
Well, things can and do happen to the best of cars. 75,000 is a lot of miles too.
 
I think people expect perfection from Honda and Toyota these days and when a mishap occurs it's unacceptable.
 
I guess that says a lot for the expected quality of these cars compared to others.
 
Still, sorry to hear of your problem. I have no idea of what's involved to change this seal.
