Nice page about 'bedding' brake pads by
Chopface
http://www.kitcarbooks.com/brakepads.html
I am doing the rotors and pads on my car soon and found this. Does
anyone know what kind of material Honda or other manufacturers use in
their pads? I bought standard Nissin replacement pads for my 91 Civic
and I think I might try the 40mph->0mph method...

2004 Accord EXL - Auto door lock feature? by
computernewby
Sorry. I don't know if it can be enabled. It is quite annoying though.
Especially since I have it on my 96 although it is from the aftermarket
alarm. It really is annoying to find the unlock button at night when it
isn't lit. I like the unlock button right next to the handle so that you
can use...

I have a 96 I4 Accord LX. It has never had anything go wrong
and has run perfectly until this morning when I attempted to start
it. When I first turned the key I heard a "pop" and it cranked but

I tried it a few more times, and seeing that...

*Quality* radio kit for 94 accord? by
Slipnfall
Hi,
My sister has a '94 accord LX, and I recently installed a cheap cd
player(old pioneer IIRC). The bezel kit I bought was from CircuitCity,
and cost quite a bit! Well long story short, it seemed *very*
universal. There was no sort of support to keep the radio from moving
around. It included a...

a stop, I couldn't get it into first without jamming it. Only change

Ever buy tires from Pep Boys? by
Longagotoday2343
I had a horrible experience buying tires from Pep Boys. They are liars and
cheaters. I purchased four tires at $50 each and the salesman proceeds to tell
me the total will be close to $400! Obviously, I was flabbergasted and asked
why so high. Then he breaks down the price, quickly glossing over...

'88 Honda Accord LX rough idle problem by
Chris Hayden
The car starts fine. Once it warms up, if the transmission is put into gear
with brake on, the idle will drop to ~250 RPM and the engine makes a bunch
of metallic pings before it picks back up and runs at a rough ~750-900 RPM,
still idling. I also get a rougher idle if I turn the heater fan up to...
