Replying to: marvin6 (Oct 27, 2009 8:09 am) For what it's worth I have an 03, 4-cyl, and I've been getting 25-26 in mixed driving with more city than freeway and I'm fairly rough. Since I got my tires in February I haven't been able to crack 29 like I did last year and I've never known a time in MN without 10% ethanol so I can't comment on the relative efficiencies.

| My mom's prior Accord- a 99 LX 4 cylinder which she kept until last year never had any transmission problems, but did shift abruptly from 1st to 2nd gear- which was characteristic of the 98-02 generation. | |

Replying to: blane (May 23, 2005 4:00 pm) I have 97K miles on my Accord. I currently have Falken Zieks on stock EX rims. I keep the pressure in the front at 42 lbs and 39 or 40 in the back. I tend to drive aggressively (not with other drivers) and am pretty hard on the car. I consistently get 30 mpg 50/50 city/hwy. That's with 2.4L-4 and 5-spd manual.

Replying to: lbirunner (Nov 02, 2009 6:37 am) This statement is incorrect. The tire manufacturer only dictates the maximum tire pressure, NOT the correct tire pressure for the vehicle it's installed on. I personally tend to keep my tires inflated 2 - 4 lbs higher than the auto manufacturer recommendation for longer tread life and higher mpg.
