    How can we get 6thgen more activity?

    Might as well call this mission accomplished, lol. Been almost 5 years since we sold the old CG5 for a pos Nissan. Emails did work, as other forums such as driveaccord.net, mdxers.org, acurazine.com, etc., do send mass emails, and I normally get those.

    My next daily and my CG news

    So I went to the Honda dealer that I serviced the CG and will be servicing dad's MDX at, and just felt that I go more towards the Odyssey, Accord 6MT 2.0T and the Civic Si. Looked at the CRV falls into the same CUV category that I am trying to get out of, the HRV is just too small and slow, the...

    My next daily and my CG news

    Dam! My goal is to get over 800 just like my dad. Also, happened to find out that my dad might be able to let me trade in the Rogue to lower my loan cost. So by the time I'll be getting a new car, the Rogue will be worth roughly anywhere between $6k-$8k, due to the high mileage. I'm trying to...

    My next daily and my CG news

    I looked at credit karma and they suggested Citi secured card, and I am familiar with Citi bank since the parents have them from Costco. I was thinking about $10k downpayment regardless of the total car price. The Accord is still on the back of my mind, but I am really not sure how reliable...

    In search of a new ride

    First off, how much are you willing to spend on repairing the CG? And how much are you willing to spend if you are going to buy a "new" car ("" to emphasize a new to you)? The 3rd gen TL and 1st gen TLX are both really great vehicles. Just make sure you don't get a one that isn't a clean...

    My next daily and my CG news

    How should I start my line of credit? My personal banker said I am not able to get a credit card until I'm 21 with the bank that I have my checking and savings at. So far as of right now, I have a monthly phone bill that costs me $80 with Verizon. With the Acura MDX, I am on the forum with...

    My next daily and my CG news

    I never said my parents are going to buy me a car. They already are paying my college fees, which I guess you forgot about that, and they told me clearly they cannot afford to buy a new one for a long time, since they got 2 car payments (both car payments happened to be their vehicles, not my...

    My next daily and my CG news

    My parents love Nissan, but I don't since I see most of the issues on a daily basis. They love it because of the value of more bang for the buck (the Kicks was $20k out the door), and had similar options to my current daily, and how they can't tell that I am driving (clearly I use cruise control...

    My next daily and my CG news

    Well, its been almost three months, and I forgot to update this forum, that we have traded our CG5 after owning it for about 20 years for a 2018 Nissan Kicks SR. The Kicks has given us problems, granted its a first model year car, but in typical Nissan fashion, everything has issues regardless...

    New gauge cluster?

    Alright... Also, stupid question, but how do I solder? I never done that at all before. Plus, I'm probably going to do this task over winter break, as I got a little project for my daily that I want to do.

    New gauge cluster?

    Hola amigos, Its been ages since I was last on here, but I haven't been driving my CG since August. So recently, since August, the Speedo decided to take a nice s*** and now it won't completely display the mileage and the trips. So what should I do? And out of nowhere last weekend, it showed...

    White smoke from under hood

    Right after my oil change, I went to AAP to get my battery tested. Unfortunately, I saw light color smoke coming from the F23A1 motor. Friends were split between coolant leak or the head gasket going bad.

    I didnt had the dealer do the bearings at all, since they were expensive. I am having my mech redo the bearing for safety reasons. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk

    Rubbing sound

    Visually inspect isnt the correct way for this mess... dealer found few things after test drive with me. The mech didn't install the axle properly and the wheel bearing is **** again (front passenger side), and bunch of other stuff.. (also i am not sure how part of my brake pads is missing)...
