Could be any one, or maybe even two of those things. I would guess either bushings or ball joints. But, unless you've been driving in death valley, I doubt they could all be bad. Maybe you need a second opinion.

another possibility: strut / strut tower interface (strut is loose because of weld burrs). it's happened on ODYs, MDXs, I presume it can happen on Accords too.

thanks. I'll keep an eye on it and do 2nd opinion. No unusual roads - fully paved. I was just wondering if there were any particular known issues in these areas. All my searches turned up negative so I suspect they were trying to pull a fast one.
 
thanks

Stalling when outdoor temp goes up... by bknibbs

I have a 98 Honda Accord LX that is having all sorts of electrical problems. Now as the temps are going up it has started to stall. It has been cool here in the northeast the past few days so it's been running ok, but today its hotter and it's stalling again. Any ideas?

2001 Accord dash lamps by thegodfather

I have a 2001 Accord LX, recently the battery, brake, and doors open lights all come on simultaneously, what on earth does this mean? The bulb in the rear window brake light is out, but I don't think that would cause all this to happen. Great car, 300k + and still runs like a champ!

99 V6 Accord -Catalytic converter by activex111

Hi,
On my 99 Accord (115K miles), the check engine light came on. Took it to a local Honda specialist and he checked teh code and told me that i need a new catalytic converter.
The quote he gave me seems pretty high
699.00 - Parts
20.00 - Gaskets
120.00 Labor
Total: 839 + Tax
 
Can someone please give me some idea regarding what is a reasonable cost for changing catalytic converter?
 
also, is there anything i can try before replacing the part?
 
Thanks,

I have a 2000 Honda Accord, automatic trans., 140k miles. It recently started having trouble shifting. The D4 light began blinking and the check engine light turned on. I borrowed a diagnostic meter from an autoparts store to connect to the car. The meter detected two problems, PO700 and PO780 (both transmission-related). Finally, this is my question: does anyone know of someone who has had the same trouble and was able have their transmission repaired under the transmission settlement even though it is over the 100k miles?

Can timing belt job cause catalytic converter to fail? by activex111
Jun 12, 2007 (1:58 pm)

Hi,
As i mentioned in my earlier post, catalytic converter on my 99 v6 accord failed. I had done a timing belt, water pump etc job few months ago. I read that improper engine tuning can cause the catalytic converter to fail.
Is it possible that the timing belt job has something to do with failure of my catalytic converter?
Thanks in advance...
