This is my first post so hello all. This site rocks...
 
Anyways.... I am new to driving and i hope to finallyget my license soon and my first car i would like to buy is a 2003+ accord (i love the redesign+i cant afford a 2008 )
 
Anyways.... I am a big dude.... 5'7 and about 280 pounds (im working on that)
 
Is this car very roomy for a big person? If possible anyone have first hand experience? I have not gotten a chance to try one but if anyone out there has, pls let me know? I would highly appreciate it.
 
I am really thinking hard at the Accord2003+ or a CRV
 
Ive also been eynf the Honda Fit.. but i guess that car is probably too small and its better for a thin person

I am getting a knocking noise in the middle of the front end of my car. When I turn to the left the noise gets worse. I have replaced both drive axles and I am still getting the noise. Would bad bearings in the wheel where the drive axle connects cause this noise? Would the bearings in the intermediate shaft between the drive axle and where it connects to the manual transmission cause this noise?

Maybetie rod ends? At that age and mileage, could be a lot of things.
 
Best bet is to have it all checked out by a good suspension guy.

two questions
- What is a SE? How it is different from EX and LX? Is it difficult/expensive to get parts for this Special Edition ?
- How much should I pay extra for accord that has honda certification?

SE stands for special edition. It is very similar to the EX in that it has a sunroof, auto door locks/windows ect. The LX however does not have a sunroof but still does have auto door locks/windows. DX model is the one that has no auto door locks nor auto windows ect. Basically an SE model shouldnt be harder to get parts for. A lot of parts can be used for the EX,SE and LX. When you get into electronic parts ie ECU, or SRS unit then you get a little more specific. Other than that it isnt a big deal.

I don't know which year you're talking about; for the 2003-2007 that's incorrect.
 
In the 2003-2007 models, the Accord SE adds to the LX model a 6-CD changer, carbon-look interior trim, alloy wheels, 4-wheel discs with EBD. There is no moonroof on the SE. The EX adds a moonroof, aluminum-look trim, heated exterior mirrors, and a couple of other doo-dads for the interior.
 
Hope this helps.

1997 honda accord by stephnee

I have a 1997 Honda Accord. About a week and a half ago my battery died. My friend jumped it and all was fine. Except before it died my doors would automatically lock when I started the car, and automatically unlock when I turned off the car. Now it won't do that anymore.
Is there anyway to get it back to it's normal routine?
Thanks!

I've never heard of any pre-2008 Honda having auto-door locks. My 2006 EX doesn't have them, and neither does my 1996 Accord (which would be the same as a 1997).
 
Is yours a US/Canadian Accord?

It's US. We bought it from someone like 2 and half years ago and it was like that when we bought it!

I've never heard of automatic door locks on an older Accord either. They really locked on their own when you started driving?? Perhaps someone could have added them aftermarket, although I've never heard of that either. I suppose anything is possible.
