    How can we get 6thgen more activity?

    I unfortunately had to get rid of my EX-V6 with 308,388 miles. I loved that car, but it sprung a terminal oil leak that would’ve cost way more than I was willing to spend on the car last year, so it just sat in the back yard unused and went further down hill from there. I say all that to say...

    02 Bank 1- Sensor 2 - Oxygen Sensor Voltage Low

    I just wanted to add some closure to this issue in case anyone comes across this thread in the future: It appears that my hot start issue was attributed to a faulty idle air control valve. I started up my car to go home from work and the RPMs were fluctuating like crazy. It was almost like a...

    02 Bank 1- Sensor 2 - Oxygen Sensor Voltage Low

    I've replaced the main relay, as a faulty one appears to be attributed to a lot of "hot start" problems. So far, knock on wood, no issues through various states of operation. xci.ed6 - If I have a chance this weekend, I'll get that data for you. Thank you all for your help!

    02 Bank 1- Sensor 2 - Oxygen Sensor Voltage Low

    Hey all, So a while back my 2002 Accord EX V6 began having trouble starting when hot, and didn't give any trouble when cold. It was throwing code P0116, saying that the engine coolant temperature sensor was bad, so I replaced it and all appeared to be well. Things were fine for about two...

    Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor - Located Where?

    For what it's worth, I avoided putting any extraneous tape, etc on the new sensor, as the old sensor I removed didn't have any. The old sensor simply had an O-ring [as spacemonkee23 stated] and the replacement sensor had an O-ring as well. I installed the new sensor with new O-ring in place...

    Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor - Located Where?

    Just wanted to let everyone know that I successfully swapped out the sensor last night, thanks to everyone's help. The car is now running like a top, and no more trouble codes! Thank you all!!!

    Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor - Located Where?

    CarbedUp, is this easy enough to replace on one's own, or does it require special tools? The dealer quoted me $116 (parts + labor) to replace, so I figure this has to be a pretty simple swap. If so, could I ask you to explain the process? Thank you in advance.

    Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor - Located Where?

    Hey all, So my 2002 Honda Accord EX V6 Coupe (230k miles) has thrown code P0116, which indicates the engine coolant temperature sensor giving trouble. This makes sense, because my car has begun having trouble starting when hot, and doesn't give as much of an issue when cold. From what I've...

    EX V6 won't turn over in hot weather w/ cold start

    Thank y'all so much. I replaced the main relay, but something still doesn't seem "all" there. I'm still trying to figure out what it could be. I'll see if I can listen for this.

    EX V6 won't turn over in hot weather w/ cold start

    Hey everyone, I have a strange problem. In the hot summer months, I have encountered an issue where my car will not turn over when I turn the key. It just clicks. I know what you're thinking, right- battery? Ignition? Not as far as I can tell. Battery is strong. Ignition is good. And of...

    Radar Detector Test

    I own the Escort Passport 8500 x50 and it is amazing. It has the best radar detecting range I've ever seen. The Valentine 1, Escort 8500 x50, and the Escort 9500i are at the top of the radar heap in my opinion. So which radar should you get? Its a matter of personal opinion. For me...

    Waxed Hood, Wax stuck deep in Washer Nozzle?

    Thank you all for the informative replies! I finally decided to go the route of washer nozzle removal. I disconnected the lines and pulled the nozzles off the hood. I then proceeded to take a water hose, switch the setting to "jet", and blast the dickens through it, haha. I did it until I...

    Waxed Hood, Wax stuck deep in Washer Nozzle?

    Hey all, its my first post to the 6GA community! I have a question. I waxed my 2002 Accord EX-V6 coupe a few days ago and apparently got wax stuck in my washer nozzles, b/c I'm not getting any fluid when I pull the release. What is the best way to do a thorough cleaning of my nozzles? Are...
