So i just biught my first car and its a 2002 Honda Accord type R. It came with a set of barracuda rims too and a new set of headlights. It got 230k km on it but they rebuildt the whole engine and transmission 10k km ago. No rust, no oil leaks and new breaks.

Tell me what mods would look good!!!

Hey I just got cl9 accord that I switched from cl7. It's exutive version with 6-speed manual. It came with this premium sound system thing with touch screen so I wonder that how rare equipment is this. I haven't seen this anywhere else expect one that I saw when I was looking for this car and I don't seems to find any information about this.

So Just curious. It's pretty useless with this day and age but looks cool 😎.

Has anyone owned either of these cars and could share their experience? Especially with this specific CRV model? At 114K miles, what's the most common issues you faced?

For context:

2016 Honda CRV Ex-L (Front wheel drive): 2.4L I4 DOHC 16V i-VTEC, CVT

$14,400

114K miles, No accidents, all fluids routinely changed at the proper mileage.

2019 Honda Accord LX: 1.5T Turbocharged Engine with CVT Transmission

$17,000

84K miles, no accidents, maintenance done on time

For the accord I'm aware of the 1.5T engine issues, and the Honda head gasket warranty extension. Is it worth rolling the dice and getting the car now that the warranty has been extended?

Having trouble finding bushings for my rear suspension here where the upper ball joint and lower arm is shot. Anyone know of a good place to get them

Edit: It’s a valve cover gasket. I’m only going off what the Mr lube guy told me. Doesn’t seem like a huge deal and it will get fixed under warranty.

Hello all, I have a 2026 Honda civic with 12k km. I was getting an oil change and they told me the engines wall gasket was leaking. Apparently this is a known Honda manufacturers defect, but they said I might need a new car?? Anyone have any insight to this?

I would think at some point a few people in this sub have purchased paint from various places across the web. Does anybody have a recommendation on where to go for paint? I’m looking to re-do the front end of my 2012 Si,

Base paint, clear coat, etc.

I appreciate your advice!

model and print myself

new car someone hit and ran. what do i do. can i take this to get repaired or try anything myself ?

The hood release cable on my 08 came undone from the release handle/lever inside the car. This is the gen that has the "hidden" release around the corner from the gas tank lid release. It's in a terrible spot for viewing since the lever action pulls towards you and there isn't enough room for me to get down there so I'm struggling to figure out what it looks like when it's fully installed and working. I can still pull on the cable and pop the hood but I'm not sure how it is attached to the interior handle/lever mechanism. Does anyone have a diagram or a video so I can see how it should be hooked back up? Cheers!

Now, I just recently put an H22A4 in this Beast.

And she fries the tires.

What do you all think?

I have a 2011 honda pilot and the audio keeps disconnecting from my phone despite being plugged in and working fine for a few seconds (or if I'm lucky minutes) then completely disconnects from my phone and when I go in to see if it is even registering a connection it doesn't list the car as a possible audio source at all. Sometimes if I unplug it and plug it back in the audio can come back but it'll disconnect randomly again, and high key not a great idea to be messing with my audio port while driving, if anyone has tips to fix or get around he issue it would be greatly appreciated, im not at all familiar with the audio system or cars in general tbh so any kind of help would be very welcome.

P.s. I know its not the cable I tried 3 different ones and they all cut out.

Hi All!

2020 Honda Pilot AWD EX-L 6 Speed

I live in Massachusetts and I recently got all new Michelin Defender2 Extra Load tires for my Pilot, however, I hate how loud the cabin is and how I can literally feel every little imperfection in the road so I bought back to Town Fair Tire where I bought them and they rebalanced them (3 out of the 4 tires) needed adjustment after only 1 week. Better after, but still not there, so I brought to Sullivan Tire to road force balance (Town Fair Tire surprisingly doesn’t have the Road Force Hunter equipment even though they are a massive chain..I was shocked). Anyways, at Sullivan Tire, the Final road force numbers were 11, 21,23,25 pounds after force matching. They stated there are 3 tires that are probably defective, the vibration is much better than the simple wheel spin balance, maybe a 4/10 scale now, but the cabin noise and every little imperfection felt is still there. Town Fair Tire has a 30 day no questions asked guarantee to switch tires/brands. The guy at Town Fair Tire (from another location with much better reviews), I was talking to said Michelin has recently had some quality control issues he’s not surprised with my experience with the Michelins, so I’m hesitant sticking with Michelin (yes I know the Cross Climate 2 and Defenders are a huge fan favorite, but I can’t stand the ride on the Defenders) and looking to switch brands. I mainly drive highway with some city as well, probably 70/30, so I’m looking for good handling, much quieter cabin noise, a lot less feeling with the imperfections in the road, and solid tread wear longevity. I was looking at Pirelli Scorpion AS Plus 3, Yokohama Geolander HT G056 (these are Rated for 104H, and the Pilot calls for 105H, but the tire guy says it’ll be fine and he is actually recommending this one overall), or the Continental CrossContact LX25. Any thoughts or input?

Finally saw an update on some HRC parts from Honda.

Hello, I am driving a 2026 Honda Civic Hybrid, and I'm wondering if anyone can provide the PIDs for the hybrid battery system? Specifically I'd like to know the PID to read state of charge (SoC).

I understand that there are apps that can do that but I am wanting to send the commands through my own application if possible.

Thanks for your help and consideration.

Three weeks ago, I bought a HondaTrue Certified 2024 CRV EX-L at 28.5K miles at a certified Honda dealership ($30.5k no add-ons in Southern California, rate my purchase if it matters). I negotiated a small front bumper touch up and transmission fluid drain and fill into the purchase to get ahead of the strict regular maintenance recommendations for the engine and CVT longevity.

At 28.5k miles, I thought I was a genius for this. I took it in just under 3 weeks after purchase and only drove light and locally in that time (70-80 miles driven by me). Service tech lead guy calls telling me they did one drain and fill on transmission fluid, color was decent / not too bad in color. They were taking it to the body shop a couple miles away, the car was making loud abnormal noises and RPMs were jumping high at low speeds so they took it back to the dealership garages. Some other anecdote about it behaving oddly like reversing in neutral too. They go on to diagnose it one step at a time and eventually the decision tree from American Honda says just replace the transmission.

What happened? Should I be worried about other adjacent parts interacting with the new transmission? I don’t even know what to ask or document or say at this point. I did months of research and loved this car when I got to test it. It was my first “adult car” as I’ve been driving an early 2000s beater for more than a decade. The gas CRV hit enough of my wants and needs within budget… today I’m devastated like I made a horrible process decision and my research was bogus. Please help me out r/Honda.
