The plastic is coming off on the door window trims on my type-v (the trim at the bottom of the window, not the door frame). So I have obtained replacements but does anyone know how I can change them? Do I have to take the door apart or can I do it from outside? The replacements have a red...

Sorry for it seeming that way! What I'm trying to say is I'm happy with the autoboxes on my cars. In 2003 the autobox went on the 1990 Accord & the 2000 Accord was bought to replace it. My wife insisted as it failed when she was driving it. After I bought the 2000 2.0 I was worried that the...

I will check but from what I remember when I bought the v-type last year, there wasn't much difference in weight. The cars are identical except the 2.0 is 4-dr with satnav and the 2.3 is 5-dr without satnav but slightly more power. The Accord Manual isn't much help... just gives a range of...

Does anyone know why it is a lot heavier? Does anyone else have an auto type-v & can comment? I expected it to be slightly heavier than the 2.0 but not by 3-4mpg. Unlike the honda 2.3 fitted to the previous generation of Accord and Rover 623GSi, the engine isn't the DOHC version... (which I...

Depends on what you use it for. My 2.0 is the 4-dr 2000 year model exec se satnav AUTO ie the top of the range one without the rear parking sensors i.e it's heavy. I have mpg figures for it since 2003 at every fill up. I am not a slow driver but then I don't drive it for performance. I'd buy a...

I have 2 6th.Gen autos. I have a 2000 2.0i Exec SE Auto (bought 2003) and a 2001 Type-V 2.3i Auto (bought 2010). I would expect the latter to be slightly heavier on fuel than the 2.0 say 1-2mpg but it seems to be a lot heavier than that i.e. 3-4mpg heavier. Does anyone know if that's right? I...

I have 2 6th.Gen autos. The first one is a 2000 2.0 SE Exec which I bought in 2003 with 43K on the clock. I found out later it had a replacement gearbox fitted at 28K by Honda but I don't know what was wrong with the original. Anyway that car now has 83k on the clock & it is going fine. Once or...

What all 3? The 1990 Accord is due to visit a body shop soon.. needs some minor welding & paintwork sorting out.

Well I bought my first Honda accord in 1980 having been recommended one by a friend.... it was a blue 3 door hatchback.
