One day, I ran over a large pothole and I had the same clunking sound on the front right that drove me crazy for a couple of days. Then, with my fist, I hit on the right tire's sidewall all around and heard the rattle. Did the other side and no noise. I figured it had something to do with...

Great idea to change when I get back. Makes sense. I really do not want to take the SI on this trip as I baby it and keep it showroom all the time, but it is a last minute trip to see a dying musician friend I haven't seen in over 35 years. I couldn't find him unitl now and he is dying. I want...

Thank you and Lagos for the replies. I spoke to Honda and they said since the minder comes on at 15%, it is better to replace the oil now than later. So, made an appointment for Tuesday.

So, going from L.A. to Seattle this Wednesday. 19 hour drive, 1300 miles one-way. With 30% oil life left, should I get my oil changed now, or wait till I get back?

Which color seems to keep it's luster and appearance better than others? I plan on buying an "R" in the next few days, maybe weeks. The dealership I always buy from just received a red one today just off the truck when I was visiting. The longevity of the red's finish concerns me. I own a...

Wow! I was hoping and waiting for a few responses to your question, but here is my take: You did not pay alot for PSC Autoshield. I would not buy it again though. Look up Consumer Affairs and see the complaints. Your scheduled services can be done elsewhere with no harm to your warranty...

My take on this meet: The other clubs had the worst group of people I have ever seen. Granted, there were very nice cars there like Lambos, Mercs, Vettes, Beemers, Camaros, Mustangs, custom rods, etc., but some of the owners of those cars were dicks. The flyer said not to make too much noise...

You did not miss anything. Other car clubs there, so a wide variety of vehicles showed up, making noise cruising around the huge parking lot. I got there at 8p, and the parking area was packed. Met 3 Si owners, all very nice people. But unfortunately, there were haters there. While away...

Yeah, that is an Android thing. The operating system is an older version (Kitkat version 4.x) that is well documented to be problematic. I did a lot of research about this and am very disappointed in Honda's decision to use this. The only option is to buy an aftermarket unit as there will be no...

Our radios are using an older Android operating system. That version is notorious for random booting, freezing, bluetooth and wifi fails. Why Honda is using the Android Kitkat verson is beyond me. Unless it was cheaper to do so. I have posted before about checking your system refresh time. Made...

After 4 months and 2K miles, have the same issues, except the rear window and driver's seat. These things ruin an otherwise fun driving experience. In addition, when I play the radio, the bass rattles the same areas even at low volume (10 - 12). The dealer cannot locate and fix (so they say)...

Nope, did not test drive my Si. I traded in a Civic LX-P. For those that do not know, the LX-P is a great find with slightly updated sway bars, remote start, keyless entry, sunroof, etc. for about a grand or so more than a regular coupe. It also drives and handles a little better than a...

The answer to your question is available online. It depends on what equipment your car has. Also, is your car new with driver aids? If so, then you need OEM glass. If not, a generic is fine. Read this: https://info.glass.com/oem-vs-aftermarket-glass/

Oh, okay.

Okay Rick, I am going to woodshed on yours. I will access my radio system software again and see what else I can find. I had corrupted the preset file on purpose and that is how I figured out the preset problem. The O.S. version 4 is not a good one and I cannot understand why Honda went there...

Don't give up. Like I told Rick, check your system refresh time. Set it for a time you will not be driving or having the car on. Each day, the radio does a system refresh to clear out junk files, clear caches, and restore files that got lost somehow. It is an Android thing. You could do a...

Rick, check your system refresh time. Make sure it is not when you drive the car. This is an Android system. A bad one that over time (short and long), will have corrupt files from use. That is why Honda put that system refresh feature in there. They knew it needed it to ensure each day, the...

Wow!! It would have been cool if Honda gave me credit for figuring it out as they and Sirius could not. Oh well. At least we know that this forum is noticed by Honda people. Remember, I also posted about the automatic system refresh our radios do at a set time everyday (even when the car is...

Agreed, that's what bothers me about the Accord, unfinished. Plus to me, the screen looks like an afterthought. Anyway, just announced today, Honda will cease production of the Accord for awhile due to unsold inventory and slow sales...

That is what I do too. Keeping a car very clean makes a real difference. People notice.
