#738 of 1122 Re: Auto Function [sirgilligan] by gyusher Nov 22, 2008 (5:40 pm)
Replying to: sirgilligan (Nov 05, 2008 5:09 pm) When the car is in park you can actually notice the engine lag and then rev a bit at the same time the lights dim. If   Mine does exactly the same thing but only at idle never while actual driving. I just think the little 4 banger has a pretty big load to handle especially at idle.   I'm surprised at how well they actually do when you consider everything asked of them. Since I've had this 'problem' I've looked for it in a few of my friends new cars costing about twice as much as mine and under the same conditions theirs do exactly the same thing.   Now I hardly notice it except when something reminds me of it.
#739 of 1122 TPMS 2008 Accord EX L with 4 steel rims by cdavidc1 Nov 23, 2008 (7:54 am)
I installed 4 steel rims on this car without the TPMS sensors installed and to my surprise the TPMS does not stay lit all the time. I was under the impression that without the sensors the light would stay on. The light comes on at engine start but goes out in a few seconds. The snow tires I bought were Bridgestone Blizak WS 60 225/50/17 they seem very good in snow and are very quiet on the highway. If anyone wants good snow tires I think they should have at look at these.

Replying to: kw_da (Oct 15, 2008 8:05 am) Does anyone know where I can find more info and instructions on claying the car? Will that get rid of the rain spots too? Thanks.

Replying to: elroy5 (Nov 09, 2008 8:27 am) Are these Honda pads that you get for less than $50? And where do you get them from? Thanks. Replies to this message: elroy5 (Nov 24, 2008 5:36 pm)
#742 of 1122 Navi Screen Problem on 08 EXL V6 by parviz Nov 24, 2008 (5:25 pm)
My navigation screen has lately started not to come on every time when I start the car. It usually comes on after I play around with the manual day/light/off switch for the navi screen. Has anyone experienced this problem?
#743 of 1122 Leather cracking open - 08 EXL by parviz Nov 24, 2008 (5:27 pm)
The driver side leather is showing some tiny gashes on the front side. I am not sure if it will get worse and not sure why it is happening. May be from using the seat heat? Any ideas?

Replying to: parviz (Nov 24, 2008 5:14 pm) I get all of my maintenance stuff from this site. I will usually buy a six-pack of oil filters, air filters (cabin, engine) wiper refills, etc. to last for a while, to cut down on shipping costs. Even when the shipping is added, it's less than the dealership, and I don't have to leave home. My parts come to me.  http://www.handa-accessories.com/accord.html

Replying to: gyusher (Nov 24, 2008 6:02 pm) A claybar will improve the finish, but it's not a miracle worker. If the spots have been there for a couple of years, clay will not take it all out. That would probably require sanding. That is a very wimpy claybar. The Mother's claybar is much thicker. Replies to this message: gyusher (Nov 25, 2008 12:45 am)

Replying to: elroy5 (Nov 24, 2008 6:58 pm) A claybar will improve the finish, but it's not a miracle worker.   Just part of the process. . . Actually there is a lot to be said for rubbing on that finish with power tools. Don't expect miracles with whatever you use. You can only shine up whats there.
