    Front Caliper Not Retracting

    2000 Accord LX 154k miles The front passenger caliper on this car won't retract. I'm stumped what might be the cause. We've relegated this Accord to "seldom-used" status, so every month or so I drive it around the neighborhood for a mile run. During my most recent circuit, I noticed after...

    2000 Honda Accord LX V6 150k miles My stalwart 2000 Accord is an LX model, which means no keyless entry.

    Fast Blink Right Turn Signal

    2000 Accord LX 131k The right turn signal is suddenly fast-flashing relative to the left turn signal. All ride-side bulbs light; and neither the dash indicator nor the corner bulbs were changed. Presumably, just one relay device drives both sides so given the fact that the left turn signal...

    Engine Surging After Timing Belt Job w/No Codes

    2000 Honda Accord ~119k miles I completed a timing belt replacement job (all three belts & both pulleys, TB auto-tensioner, water pump & front eng. mount--all OEM Honda parts).
