Honda baby boy The story Before I changed the engine, I discovered that the car shaked violently when the ac was turned on and gets worse when the reverse gear is engaged. That I think started when I changed the AC compressor. This continued with the new engine. Each time this happens, I noticed that the RPM goes close to 0. Mechanics have tried to raise the RPM but the sound continued. One morning, I noticed that the sound and vibration was on even when the Ac was not on. NB, this sound disppears on top speed One mechanic removed the rear sensor on the throttle body (what the mechanics called the injector mouth) and the vibration stopped for while stationary but the rpm was always high and driving was unplesant. I was advised to change the throttle body which i did. Vibration stopped momentarily and started all over again. I changed the throttle body again apparently because they had broken the knob that is used to rregulate the RPM. Still no soilution. I also changed the inner shaft cup that fits into the gearbox at one point. Anyone has an idea what is going on? Any suggestions please? I discovered that my two fans were connected directly so that both fans work on turning on the ignition. This has been rectified |

Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by luvinhubby(m): 1:24am On Feb 13, 2013 |
@drumme Tell your rewire to switch the wires or alter the sockets of your fan, it's blowing in the wrong direction. |

edoyad: This una 5w-30 no easy to find o. I have been using Total 5w-40 for my civic since that's the only thing I can find that's close to the recommended. I also use a Civic 2002 Ex. I've been using a multigrade SAE 20w - 50 which burns slightly in my engine. And I always do my oil change every 2months as I do not get to hit recommended 3000k miles. Edoyad the 5w - 40 is close to whats recommended how does it perform in your Civic? |
Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by edoyad(m): 2:18am On Mar 08, 2013 |
MrMexs007: So far I think it's been a excellent. It's Total 9000 which ironically sells for about 5k for 5 liters. The guys at total said I could drive for 9k kilometers or 9 months before another service but I only go for 5 months then I will change. |
Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by cardoctor(m): 4:19am On Mar 08, 2013 |
edoyad: My mechanic wants me to change the Condenser of my A C, he said a bigger one would be better than the one it came with. Is this sound advice? The condenser is like a small radiator, usually mounted at the front of the car right in front of your big radiator. Sometimes the condenser will have its own electric cooling fan, too. The hot, compressed a/c gas passes through the condenser and gets cooled. As it cools, it becomes a liquid again and continues the cooling cycle that makes cool air blow into your car's cabin. Though you havent really stated the problem that you are having with your car ac, I would only advice you to use the condenser size as the same fitted by the car's manufacturer. |
