I leased an Accord V6 coupe a little over a year ago and just went for my second oil change with 13,400 mi. on odometer. Besides the oil change notification on the dashboard "B1" also showed. I have no problem with having the oil change done but I was told that the "B1" maintenance had to be done also; which included rotating the tires for the second time, which I had done at the first oil change 6,500 mi. ago and a "Multi Point Vehicle Inspection" which cost me an additional $50.00 dollars. When I stated that I wasn't very happy about paying that amount for a vehicle inspection which with my other vehicle a Nissan is free everybody went silent. I'm afraid not to get the work done because it is a leased vehicle and when it comes time to turn it in they might come back and say that I didn't maintain it properly. Am I getting ripped off and what does anybody think about maitenance and when it gets time to turn in a lease? This second oil change and maintenance cost me a total of $95.00.

| I have a 2008 Honda Accord EX-L V6 - the XM radio sometimes loses signal (sometimes when it is really cloudy) - or sometimes when I change stations too fast. The display will still show the song that is playing - but no sound. It usually starts by skipping or sputtering. The ONLY way to clear this seems to be to turn the car off then back on - not exactly convienient. I have seen a few other posting's on the web with people who are having the same problem. See http://www.cardealercheck.com/forum/thread73893.html but I don't see any resolutions - I have taken the car in to the dealer - but they said they could not duplicate the problem - and there was nothing they could do ? Has anyone else experienced this issue ? I also called XM Radio - and they of course said to take my car to the dealer. | |

Replying to: ming2 (Feb 23, 2009 6:44 am) If you Google whether or not rotating tires is required, you'll get differing opinions. Some say they never rotate tires but will replace them 2 at a time, usually front ones first, and save the cost of rotattions. Over the life of the tires that can add up to couple hundred bucks. |

Hello. I have a 2009 Honda Accord and it has some kind of feature where whenever I press the button on the key to unlock the car, the horn honks twice. It's quite annoying. I don't mind the one "honk" when I lock it, but two to open is annoying. My 2006 Accord didn't have that. I looked in the manual and couldn't find much. Something mentioned a valet button, but I couldn't find that anywhere either. Any help would be appreciated by me and my neighbors who are trying to sleep in the morning when I leave for work  Thanks, BD
