Replying to: dpmeersman (Jun 23, 2008 1:24 am) I've wished for preset equalizer settings since I bought my 08 EXL-V6, something that used to be quite common but Honda chose not to include this time around.   I have never seen this technology in a Honda; it was quite a commonality on the old GM Theftlock stereos.

Replying to: matador51 (Jun 22, 2008 12:21 pm) Ive used Turtle Wax ICE liquid clay bar, paste wax, liquid wax, and ICE exterior detailer- and can truthfully say they all work excellent (although would say the paste wax is better than the liquid.   As for the interior detailer, I can't say as I haven't used it thus far, but would give it a try considering how good the rest of the product line is.

Replying to: accordguy0325 (Jun 23, 2008 3:41 pm) The ICE wax is easy to apply and remove, but it doesn't last very long. Nu-Finish lasts much longer, but it's not easy, considering all the white dust (especially on a Black car). So it depends, do you want it to be easy, and have to wax more often? Or hard, and less often? I also tried the ICE liquid clay bar, and was not really impressed. I'm thinking about trying the Mother's clay bar next time.

Replying to: dpmeersman (Jun 23, 2008 1:24 am) My XM radio does not show the entire name of the long songs or albums. Does yours? I thought it was supposed to scroll to show the entire name. Also, it just shows only one info (name, singer, etc.) until I press the button to alternate manually. I also thought it was supposed to alternate between the singer's name, song name, etc.?

Replying to: parviz (Jun 23, 2008 10:26 pm) Mine like yours shows incomplete title if they are long, but your question made me seek my manual and I found this: The display shows up to about 14 characters of selected text data (the folder name, file name, etc.). If the text data has more than 14 characters, you will see the first 14 characters and the indicator in the display. Press and hold the TITLE button until the next 14 characters are shown. I've never tried holding the title button, just a quick push to cycle thru it's functions. I'll give it a try when I go out for lunch today and put to use what I've learned. As far as alternating, I've noticed that when a song first comes on from an XM source it does briefly display the artist then remains on the song title. If you switch to a CD it does display the name of the disc before it shows song titles. I try not to get to fixated on the display as I'm usually in considerable traffic. I listened to my first Red Sox game on XM recently and found it very convenient that the display shows innings-outs and other pertinent info that you are usually looking for when you first put a game on, but usually have to wait what seems forever for the announcers to get around to informing you.

#497 of 1114 Daytime Running Lights by dlongod Jun 26, 2008 (10:17 am)
Just got my 08 Accord EX-L 4 cyl Sedan a couple of weeks ago. Is there an easy way to turn the daytime running lights off? I haven't really messed around with anything yet but if somebody knows exactly what to do, I would greatly appreciate it!

Replying to: dlongod (Jun 26, 2008 10:17 am) I think you can remove the proper fuse for this. There is no switch to turn them off, or any "cheat" to do by pressing a series of buttons or anything. They aren't meant to be turned off since they're a safety feature.   Why do you want them off, may I ask? Replies to this message: dlongod (Jun 28, 2008 5:39 am) thegraduate (Jun 28, 2008 8:11 am)
#499 of 1114 daytime running lights.. by rkirchoff Jun 26, 2008 (3:04 pm)
According to my dealership's service manager, if you disable the daytime running lights then problems with the air bag may occur. I don't like them as well but I'm stuck with'em. I've already decided my next car will not be a Honda...too many morons making drastic changes that many of us don't want, need, or care to have.
