#818 of 1142 XM Radio problems - 2008 Accord EX-L V6 by atl08accord Feb 23, 2009 (12:29 pm)
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) I would not worry about the leasing company coming back and saying you didn't maintain the vehicle properly. How can they prove that? You are free to have maintenance done at any shop, including doing it yourself. So unless your lease specifically says proof of maintenance is required, I wouldn't worry about it. I never do those "Multi point inspections", but that's just me.   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.
#820 of 1142 Honda Accord Alarm and horn when opening doors by bobbyd Feb 24, 2009 (5:40 am)
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 Replies to this message: hondaowner10 (Feb 24, 2009 7:03 pm)

Replying to: bobbyd (Feb 24, 2009 5:40 am) My 2009 Accord doesn't do that. The lights blink when I unlock the doors using the remote but that's all. I would have it checked. It might just be the way your locks are programmed. My dealer asked me before I picked up the car how I wanted the locks programmed. Check with your dealer.

Replying to: 7435 (Mar 03, 2009 4:09 pm) Why not just take it to your dealer and let them handle it?

Replying to: 7435 (Mar 03, 2009 4:09 pm) I had/have this same issue. The issue is with the rear brake light. I also have the 2008 Honda Accord and I took my car back 4 times to get this fixed. They packed the rear brake light with foam tape and each time it worked for about 1 week then the rattling came back. I told the service manager that I will keep coming back until they fix it. On my last oil change I advised of the rattle and they seriously packed the rear brake light with Foam tape and I have not had a rattle since and that has been about 3 months. What they will do is in the Trunk of the car where the bulb goes into the rear break light they will put foam tape all in the spaces.
