#1713 of 1936 Re: 2002 Accord Timing Belt [mwoods1] by Mr_Shiftright HOST May 10, 2009 (9:22 am)
Replying to: mwoods1 (May 10, 2009 6:26 am) It doesn't require a lot of labor but you do have to take off the valve cover on the 4 cylinder and the throttle body cover and intake cover on the V-6. It's not a big deal to check it. You'd better have it checked because if it is cracked you have to have it replaced ASAP. I agree, that would be quite unusual.   If your mechanic checks it and finds it okay, I would never go back to the dealer again for out of pocket repairs. In fact, I might report them to your local DAs office. This could be regarded as out and out fraud, if in fact the belt is fine.   I have to say though I am equally troubled by your mechanic's response.

Replying to: mwoods1 (May 10, 2009 6:26 am) While your mileage is low for a 2002 vehicle, timing belt replacement is NOT solely based on miles. Honda recommends to replace the TB at 105000 miles or 7 years whichever comes first. Whether your dealer had actually taken off the valve cover to inspect the belt or not is another discussion.

Replying to: synai (May 12, 2009 9:07 am) My first guess would be the ignition switch. If you can get the car to die, just by wiggling the key switch (still turned on), it would be confirmed. It could be other things too, like igniter, distributor, coil, etc. Good luck solving the problem.

Replying to: lt0521 (May 22, 2009 3:20 pm) Can't you push the un-lock button on the remote, to turn it off?
#1720 of 1936 Re: Engine just Dies without warning: [freddie2] by antoinet May 26, 2009 (8:43 pm)
Replying to: freddie2 (Dec 17, 2005 12:20 am) freddie, I also have a 1998 accord, it is a 4cyl LX. Over the past year i too have had the same problem, the engine just dies even when driving along at a constant speed. My mechanic is hesitant to replace anything he is not sure of being the problem. So far he has replaced the fuel injectors because the pressure was low and has replaced the distributer cap which had a hole in it. Unfortunately it died again this week. Have you found the cause to this problem? If you have i would appreciate some advice. Thanks, Tom Replies to this message: elroy5 (May 27, 2009 7:35 pm) marhar (Jun 02, 2009 8:30 am) mitchflorida (Jun 02, 2009 10:13 am) sl156 (Jun 05, 2009 7:13 pm) awt1 (Jun 29, 2009 10:13 am) rlse (Jun 02, 2009 4:17 pm)
#1721 of 1936 '01 ACCORD ALARM PROBLEMS by bradmaz May 27, 2009 (4:08 pm)
'01 ACCORD COUPE EX. The alarm randomly goes on and can be turned off with the keyless remote. If I try to lock the doors with the keyless remote the car won't honk and the lights won't turn on like normal. I try to lock the doors manually but the alarm still goes off when it wants. The dealership said there is a relay that resets when you turn the car on, this works sometimes. What should I do? Thanks!

Replying to: antoinet (May 26, 2009 8:43 pm) Tom, Try giggling the key, while the engine is running. If you can get the engine to shut off, without changing the switch position, you've found your problem. Do the dash lights go out when this happens (another indication of ignition switch)?
