When should I replace the brakes?

Written by: ams5 on Jul 17, 2008 00:59 PM

I have an 2002 Honda Accord V6. A little bit more than 70,000 miles. I went to Honda dealer service this morning. I told the advisor there that when I press the brake, the sterling wheel shakes. He called and said it is because the brakes are worn out. It is impossible. I had the brake replaced (front - last year and rear - two years ago) by Midas. He said they are not Honda ...

Hi. Did you ever find out what the stalling problem was on your Honda? I am having the same problem with a 2002 V6 and have about 150K miles. It only happens sporatically but it's happened 3 times now. I have it in to be checked today and they were suggesting it could be my exhaust system needed to be cleaned. Read More...

2007 V6 5AT

Written by: th83 on Jul 02, 2008 03:23 AM

Over the last 4 tanks, my V6 has averaged 26.2 MPG in city driving. Needless to say, I'm very light on the throttle. The transmission usually upshifts somewhere in the 2000-2600 rpm range and I hardly ever let the engine rev past 3000. I coast as much as I can and I always manipulate the throttle slowly and smoothly when accelerating. In fact, I'm so careful with the ... Read More...

Other than what the press tells us is the case, the 03 Accord ("7th gen") seems like a totally new platform as indicated by wheelbase and track dimensions: 1) Wheelbase: 107.9 in. for 2003 vs 106.9 in. for 6th gen Accord (1998-2002) 2) Track: 61.1/61.2 for 2003 vs 61.2/60.4 for 6th gen The 03's drivetrain, which ultimately sold me on the car, is also practically ...

I test drove two yesterday, the 4 then the 6 at Boch Honda in Norwood, MA, the largest Honda dealer on the planet as they say. I then bought the black EXL V-6 with leather to get the "ivory" beige interior with the wood trim. The other colors do not come with the trim and the lighter interior color with the trim improves the appearance in my opinion. They had no V-6 white ... Read More...

I wanted to wait for a response from my last post before contributing this but darnit the forum just doesn't move fast enough. Most likely because this is one of the few forums where the naysayers outweigh those with actual experience. Btw, TY sparkland for your real world story regarding your camry alternator.So naysayers, please respond with your actual length ... Read More...

duke, what business is it of yours what my age is? I have never leased a Honda before. My first Honda was a 1979 Accord. Purchased new for $6,100. I owned that car for 9 years and the only thing I had to replace was tires, a water pump ($60 part I installed myself) and the battery - which is not covered by an EW. The car did have carburator problems after 100k miles. I don't ... Read More...
