Just talking about toyota and honda nothing serious just curious about the market. Seeing that alot of people are tired of american which i can understand why they are peace out.Did you do a buy or lease on your 07?? im in a lease until 2010 i think i might lease again i just do not like 5yr loans i guess honda might make me change my mind i don't know.

New 07 Accort SE V6: A few odd little things by yury

Hi All
 
I got me 07 SE V6 a couple of weeks ago and there's a couple of ... strange things I notice.
 
1. The V6 has 2 tailpipes. Upon closer examination that they are not quite in the same position relative to the cutouts in the bumper plastic. Asked a service guy about it, he said the exaust is fine, but have me no explanation as to why the pipes are placed differently.
 
2. I noticed that when the left (I think) back door is closed it's not quite level with the body. the door surface sticks out just a little relative to the body behind it. the difference is very small...1 mm maybe or even less.
The right door is completely flush. Never seen this before.
 
3. The driver's seat developed a creak within a few days. Went to the dealer, they spend 5 minutes trying to lube it, said, nope, let's book an appt. Instead, I got me a can of WD40 and in 15 minutes got it fixed myself.
 
4. The centre concole storage door rattle. Didn't have a chance to talk to the dealer, instead used a few bits of felt pad as a temp. measure. I was rattling a little after that, bit now i can't hear it anymore.
 
Overall the car is great...but what's the deal with all the small things, after all it's a Honda, not a Chevrolet? Was it build on Monday or something?

You are right. I've noticed on some SE's with the ivory (tan) interior seats the dashboard middle section where radio is, you can see what looks to be rectangular boxed lines in the leather or plastic (it feels like leather)and steering wheel column too. On one SE the airbag was bunchy looking, like a pillow squished too far short in a pillowcase. What is up with that? Also, driver right door on an LX i drove felt like it wasn't connected right. I am wondering if I should go Toyota or fly to Japan to get a car made more precisely with better quality control.

i doubt that toyota will be better...worse probably. for starters you may have to have a number of tsbs applied just for the tranny to work ok. also when I was checking it out i noticed that the plastic panels on the dash are not as good a fit as on accords.

I'm really not trying to sound like a smart$$, but your manual will answer all your questions like that.
 
I'd tell you, but I could be mistaken without going and looking my own manual myself. Look under the "Maintenance Minder" section or something similar.

Thanks for the suggestion. the procedure was in the manual.
I assumed it was some secret to be done only by the dealer.

Most people would be surprised what is included in the owner's manual. Minor maintenance, including oil change, coolant change, and spark plug replacement are in the manual. Read your owner's manuals people! You can learn a lot about how your car works. 380 pages of (mostly ) useful information.

Its no problem!
 
Last time I told someone to check their manual they got offended, so I wanted to make sure you weren't!
 
Have a good one buddy...
