    2001 Accord 6th Gen Five Door - Various Water Leaks

    Always the case, these cars never fail mechanically but rust takes over on them, it may be worth cutting your losses and buying another cleaner Accord and then take care of it from the start, or fix this one if you like it :)

    2001 Accord 6th Gen Five Door - Various Water Leaks

    That looks quite bad, and I wouldn't even want to see the chassis legs behind the wings. I think it may have had its day unfortunately mate unless you are willing to put money and time into repairing it all but from the pictures, looks like its a long road. Issue is it seemed to never have been...

    Would you buy this Type R?

    I wouldn't for that price, I always find ATR's for under £2500 have alot of issues and they are priced cheap for a reason. As said above, the MOT history says it all and I would avoid it if it were me. As I said, cheap ATR's are priced cheap for a reason, if you want an ATR you have to spend the...

    2001 Accord 6th Gen Five Door - Various Water Leaks

    Have you checked the bulkhead for rot? if your floorpan is gone, I suspect your bulkhead is to and that can let in water, shine a torch above the footwells and see.

    Best Wax to use?

    I use chemical guys paste wax 3X in a tub, costly but amazing stuff. You will find the proffesional detailers use Chemical guys and originates from the USA who we all know are obsessed with the OCD clean of their cars. Been using it for years.

    Accord Sport, water in foot area

    Check the bulkhead by sticking your head up the footwell and check for any rust.

    Rust repair needed

    Depending how bad it is, it will be much cheaper to get a replacement door, in the same colour if possible. A good garage will charge easily about £200 minimum.

    Disappointing Dash Lights

    May be a silly question but have you adjusted the dimmer to the top? its located between the rev and speedo counters. May be a connection issue regards to why that bit isn't lighting up, maybe test another speedo and see if it does the same

    For Sale - 1.8 VTEC Sport with only 31000 miles

    Nice and a rare thing to see, though I have seen many normal Accords with low miles going for high prices, whether they sell or not is different. Great cars, them Sports :)

    Heated mirrors

    ATR's never came with heated mirrors, unless it was an optional extra fitted.

    Car stalls randomly?

    I also wiggled the key whilst the engine is running, and nothing so I don't think its the switch, I am led to believe its Dizzy related or fuel related.

    Car stalls randomly?

    Always use V power,at first, felt slight hesistation on the motorway and got worse by stalling now. Yeah reading up, its common but the lights come up on the dash which if I am correct, if it was the ignition switch, no lights will come up?

    Car stalls randomly?

    I had it cleaned last year, last time I had EGR issue, EML light came on and I ***umed it was the same case here.

    Car stalls randomly?

    Hi guys, I seem to have a slight issue with my ATR, after driving for some time, my car hesistates/jerks and then engine cuts out and stalls, with the lights on the speedo, as you would see when the key is turned to the second click. It then won't start up again till I press on the accelerator...

    Car struggles with air con on.

    ^ Probably due to the pump retrieving energy to run and hence drop in revs slightly.

    Car struggles with air con on.

    It saps power when the A/C is on, its like Power steering, it uses a bit of power to make it work, the 2L Accords doesn't have the power plus the weight of the car to compensate for the power taken but it shouldn't be soo much, you will notice a HUGE difference. My ATR is fine with A/C but it...

    Buying advice on 6th gen accord 1.8 vtec

    That is a bargain for the miles, I bought a 1.8 Sport with 120K for £750 so snap it up, just make sure you do a full service on it when you buy it, regardless of what the owner says, and just check for the usual rust and wear and tear bits and bobs, but for that price, I would buy it if I were...
