Replying to: kkay2 (Mar 23, 2009 6:07 pm) Read through this link. It should give you some idea what the problem is. Since the car has been sitting for 2 years, the tires are probably the cause of the shimmy (flat spotted or out of balance). http://techauto.awardspace.com/transmission.html Good luck Replies to this message: kkay2 (Mar 25, 2009 7:40 pm) elroy5 (Mar 25, 2009 8:10 pm) thegraduate (Mar 26, 2009 5:06 pm)
#1542 of 1756 Fuel supply system replacement by cybercool Mar 24, 2009 (11:36 am)
Hi all Sorry if this repeated question. My Honda 93 Accord EX seems to have the code 43 (engine light) which points to the ECU or fuel supply system. My car has a rough ride and jerks with D4 light blinking. This link http://techauto.awardspace.com/transmission.html is helpful but what else can I do to have a smooth ride again? Full Tune up? What does a fuel supply system fix entail? Thanks   Cybercool

my well maintained car has started to completely stop in mid drive. once doing 45mph and just recently doing 60mph. no brakes, power steering or gas. the service station has had it for three weeks and can't figure it out. the mechanic drove it for 300 miles with no problems for him.

Replying to: goodes (Mar 24, 2009 2:14 pm) Well you probably need to get a better Mechanic, one who specializes in only Honda's or Acura cars. Go to the Cartalk website and select a good independent Honda mechanic from the mechanix file. These are mechanics selected by Honda car owners from all over the country. Good Luck.

Replying to: elroy5 (Mar 23, 2009 6:27 pm) thank you elroy5- that is a good link. Full of lots of info. I just had one more question.... Do you think it's normal for the accord to continue to sound like it's running after it's been turned off? It sounds like a fan or something keeps running for 3-4 minutes. I'm really hoping this is a normal phenomenon. Do you know? Replies to this message: elroy5 (Mar 25, 2009 8:10 pm) thegraduate (Mar 26, 2009 5:06 pm)

Replying to: kkay2 (Mar 25, 2009 7:40 pm) The cooling fan can continue to run for a few minutes after the engine is shut off. This is normal. Reminds me of when we first bought our 92 Accord. The wife calls me from Mom-in-laws, and says "I turned the key off, but the car is still running" in a panic voice. It was funny to both of us, after she knew what it really was. Make sure the fan eventually turns off (give it 10 mins.). If it doesn't, the fan timer may be on the fritz. The link I gave you also mentions the fan timer. Happy Hondaing
#1547 of 1756 automatic seatbelt issue by granadapearl90 Mar 25, 2009 (8:32 pm)
Hello to all,I got a 90 Accord EX coupe with automatic seatbelts that dont retract when the ignition key is turned on and door is closed.I have pulled away the plug on the back interior panel to turn the motor to retract it manually but if i close the door and re-open it the seatbelt will go forward again.This has got me really irratated cause when i drive i only got a lap belt not to mention the constant beeping from the seatbelt warning control on the passengers side floor.I have disconnected the warning control just recently so that seatbelts just stay in the back posistion and can be clicked in before driving and no more beeping noise.Does anyone no what could be the cause of the problem?is it a switch?bad ground?contol unit?or could this be something Honda would warranty at no cost even though the car is 20+years old?.any help greatly appreciated.Thanks Replies to this message: AndyDubin (Mar 26, 2009 10:55 am) granadapearl90 (Mar 26, 2009 5:32 pm) acertijo (May 15, 2009 7:49 pm) acertijo (May 15, 2009 7:51 pm)

Replying to: granadapearl90 (Mar 25, 2009 8:32 pm) The seat belt on my '93 Accord stopped retracting last year. I brought it to my local Honda dealer and they fixed it for free. From what I understand, honda guarabtees their seatbelts on all cars, no matter how old, no matter who the original owner was. The only thing they won't guarantee is if the damage happened as a result of mistreatment. I would urge you to ask your local authorized Honda repair shop (not your local Honda specialist, but your local dealership repair shop) whether the seat belt problem can be fixed under warranty.

Replying to: kkay2 (Mar 25, 2009 7:40 pm) Hondas from the 80s and 90s are known for doing this, and it is considered normal. Our '93 Accord used to, and my '96 still does. Typically its after longer drives (when the engine is nice and hot, although not running hot). Even my granddad's '87 Civic wagon used to do this after a sizeable drive.   I know elroy told ya, but since you're relatively new here I thought a second opinion might make you feel a little bit better.   Best regards,   TheGraduate   P.S. - Elroy is really knowledgable, and won't ever lead you wrong knowingly!   Welcome to Edmunds!
