Danthemariner: I’m not an engineer, I only work on my own vehicles. You need a scan to know for sure what’s up with your vehicle |

Jamie1000: So the v6 has a lower resale value sir? |

Conner44: Can the scan pick a faulty gear box?? My mechanic test drive the car and said the D light is blinking and the car is removing from gear while driving it...... He showed me two sensors attached to the gear box and said those are bad.. But advice me to get a complete gear box... It really expensive to get a new gear box.. Wat your advice thanks for your time |
Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by Conner44: 8:42am On Nov 15, 2022 |
Danthemariner: It might be that those two sensors are bad OR you’d need a new gearbox but no matter how you look at it a scan is far cheaper than both the replacement sensors or the gearbox itself, and yes a scan will show any possible faults with the gearbox |
Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by Jamie1000: 9:35am On Nov 15, 2022 |
Sportwin: Yes, offcourse. Less ppl are willing to buy V6. |

Jamie1000:how less powerful is the 4 plug compared to the v6 merits and demerits sir |
Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by Danthemariner: 10:25am On Nov 15, 2022 |
Conner44: Thanks alot i will scan the car this week anw paste the code here |
Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by Conner44: 10:39am On Nov 15, 2022 |
Danthemariner: It’s best you do that. It might be that you’d not need to change the gearbox at all. Even a tiny solenoid in the gearbox that is misbehaving will throw a code and you can replace it and have rest of mind. 1 Like |

PresEmeka: The V6 is quieter The V6 is smoother in acceleration The V6 does not vibrate at all even when ac is on If the 4cyl will take you to abuja with N10k fuel the V6 will do it with N11.5k (the price difference gets smaller if the distance is shorter) The V6 has a timing belt that needs replacement at least once every 5 years (along with its water pump too) meanwhile the 4cyl doesn’t need any timing chain maintenance as long as you keep your engine oil properly gauges and clean The 4 cyl is easier to work on In my opinion the V6 is far better than the 4cyl, it’s just the fueling and ease of maintenance that makes people rush the 4cyl |

PresEmeka: V6 gives out 271 hp @ 600rmp While I4 gives out 177 hp The Accord It's a large Car. The differenc is very much clear when you approach a stop.... from rest, the V6 with lower rpm picks very fast to attain maximum speed even with AC and full loaded car. While the I4 is yet to pick. It shorts off the the 3 plugs on high speed for fuel efficiency and when you slow down, the 6 plugs ignites for the compression to start. So, if you travel alot, V6 is better. If you drive mainly within the city I4 is better. If you're buying car for fun, the V6 is much better. If the engine is sound. It's pretty fast and zippy. 1 Like |

Good afternoon, Please i noticed that the temperature of my car rises after a while when am using the AC. The hot temperature sensor just starts blinking. But once I put of the AC the light goes of and all is normal. There is water in the radiator and all of the fans are are working appropriately cos my rewire just changed the fans. Please can any how tell me what could be wrong? |

temi4fash:Water inside radiator as per na diesel generator you dey use. Nigerians no dey ever amaze me Anyway, my advice will be to change to recommended coolant, check if the fan is working at normal speed and check if thermostat is bad. |

Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by Asquare84(m): 5:00pm On Nov 15, 2022 |
i just like the way guys that have good knowledge about v4 vs v6 is breaking it down here. with this knowledge i will surely buy v6. how much is even the difference in fueling. but our local mechanics will make it look as if v6 is a very complicated car that give a lot of problem and keep advising intended people that want to buy a car to never buy v6 |

hoyinmide: It’s not bad until you’re on high speed on a wet road and another useless driver tries to dodge porthole in front of you thereby swerving into your lane. Any quick maneuvering of your steering wheel will likely send you directly to either heaven or hell depending on how your life is being lived. Get your vehicle scanned to know the exact module that’s triggering the VsA light. |

Good afternoon Please I am having an issue with my Acura TL The vsa check light keeps coming on!!! Is it safe to drive that way and what may be the cause?? |
Re: Maintenance Tips For Honda Cars by Conner44: 5:30pm On Nov 15, 2022 |
temi4fash: If your fans are good then you need to check your radiator for blocked/rusted water passages (due to using water for a long time) or if you have a thermostat in the vehicle maybe it’s getting weaker and needs to be changed. 1. Take out your radiator for a flush and then use the recommended coolant instead of water 2. Change your thermostat But if you’ve been running your fans directly and without thermostat then I’d say the fans are not the right type (low rpm), your water pump is on its last legs or you have a head gasket issue. |
