    RIP Accord. My '99 Accord is dead.

    Seems like it's not that rare a story, but the auto transmission in my '99 Accord is completely and utterly done. There are a few electrical gremlins to the car, but I've gotten used to them. Sometimes the climate control doesn't turn on, so I can't change the temperature or vent selection...

    Ignition key cylinder

    I can't remove the key from the ignition. I believe that it is a problem either with the switching, or the key interlock solenoid itself, looking for possible solutions. Preferably cheap, A while back, sometimes it would be difficult to turn the key all the way to the "ACC" position. This...

    Transmission woes. (DD)

    My transmission seems like it's not long for this world. Yesterday, after driving home without incident, speeds up to 120km/h (75mph) I got back in the car, and when accelerating from a stop, the jar started to judder. If I kept the acceleration to an absolute bare minimum, I could keep it...

    Crappy electrical connections in the dash

    I've got some weird electrical gremlins that I'd like to know if other people have had. My temp gauge, and seatbelt warning light on the dashboard will sometimes not work. Most times they're fine. (Well, hard to know with the seatbelt light, but sometimes it's not on when I put the keys in...

    Odd wiper electrical symptom

    So this has been sort of a thing with my Accord. With the current weather it's been more of a thing. My wiper switch is acting strange. If I turn on the wipers to intermittent, they will sometimes not come on at all, until I hit the washer pump. I usually need only hit that for a moment, and...

    SupraGuy's... Supra.

    My first Supra I bought on Leap day, 1996. It was 7 years old, and had really low mileage. The car was a normally aspirated 5 speed, and I drove it daily for many years. Those years weren't particularly kind to it, and the local winters were even less kind. After a decade, and nearly half a...

    Lighting pet peeve.

    So I've been going over all of the lights on my Accord, and am having trouble with headlights. Sure, 9005/9006 lamps aren't exactly rare, but it seems that ones that aren't "high colour temperature" are. I don't want anything with much higher a colour temperature than maybe 3800K. It seems...

    Climate Control questions

    Okay, I've searched. Maybe this information exists, and if so, I'd appreciate a link. Lots of the lights on my climate control are out. This is just kind of annoying, but in the process of searching for a concise shopping list for what lamps to buy I find mostly references to the automatic...

    New Honda owner.

    Hey there. Just purchased my '99 Accord EX sedan, 2.3L Auto. Probably not going to do much in the mods department, since my other car is a Supra Turbo, and is probably already much faster than this Accord is likely to ever be for any reason. The Accord is a nice all-round vehicle, seems to...

    99 Accord EX 2.3 sedan questions

    First off, I was kind of surprised that the FAQ covered such generic stuff, and not things specific to this generation Accord. I just picked up this car as a DD, and will be winter driving it, since my other car is definitely a "Summer only" car. Anyway, questions: 1. Head unit. I see...
