    Check your oil level, but other than that, the k20z is a solid motor. Is your car standard or any mods done?

    KB1 Honda Legend 3.5 V6

    It's also awd! I'd love to run one, but the road tax kills it for me over the pond.

    Safety recall

    Yep, needs doing twice apparently, the first one was an interim measure and this is a final one.

    question about transmission oil for my old accord?

    Use the MTF 3, Honda doesn't forget about their legacy builds.

    Clutch pedal

    The car had a 3 year guarantee, it's up to you to maintain it for as long has you want to own it. Brake pedals have been known to be broken in major accidents just from sheer force of occupant pressures at point of impact. Determining if it broke before an accident would see a weakening or...

    8th gen new owner with extremely serious issue

    Personally, I'd run 5w-40 in the higher revving engines, I've been using the 0w20 for years, yes some of it is consumed but nothing major. As I said I'm no mechanic but would that be chain slap moreso than big end bearings??

    8th gen new owner with extremely serious issue

    If the noise is bad enough, then you'd know not to drive it and get it seen to. If it got so bad that it fails it could send a big end out through the block. I'm not trying to alarm you either. The k series is extremely reliable and doesn't suffer the same issues as the diesels above, but every...

    8th gen new owner with extremely serious issue

    Fair dues on running the k24 man, it used to be easier to find another engine with Honda's but the 2.4 is a rare beast, especially on our shores. The crank would need inspection and if the crank isn't scored, you could absolutely change out the bearings. A good engineering shop could repair the...

    CU2 Brake Upgrade

    See the last post on this page as the DC5 rim spokes are curved it might give more clearnace than the straight spokes on the Pentas. http://typeaccord.co.uk/forum/topic/23064-accord-7th-gen-brakes-update-all-oem-solutions/page-2?hl=brakes

    CU2 Brake Upgrade

    I thought Pentas only came in one size, offset should be 55. The bigger calipers may be an issue for the Penta's anyway as the discs are much bigger too

    Missing a speakers in rear doors in Honda Accord 07 S-type

    Welcome along, I think most folk just upgrade the speakers on the back shelf, I don't recall anyone wiring new speakers into the rear door, but if you do you must modify the inner door panel or find some thin speakers to fit there.

    Problems with honda accord CL7 K20Z2 engine

    The 6th gen Accord had issues with ignition just switching off and it was down to an electrical contact switch on the back of the ignition, I wonder if it could be something similar?

    5 speed to 6 speed conversion

    The facelift 7th gen Accord got a 6 speed box so that should cover it, same clutch etc. I was always wondering about how the gearing then aligns with the mapping of the ecu?? Does that come into play at all??

    Reverse and 1st gear clutch shudder

    Well look at that, Honda even calls them torque mounts.... https://www.lingshondaparts.com/partscatalog/catalog/listing/catalog/hondacars/modelid/3380/block/17TL1901/blockref/B__4704/

    Reverse and 1st gear clutch shudder

    Is it on the original clutch still?? check the condition of the gearbox mount. There's a lot of torque in that 2.2l especially if it's the 180bhp model.

    Radiator replacement compatibility

    Not sure if they're interchangeable between facelift and non-fl. Honda improved the cooling in the FL, therefore it didn't need a deeper bumper grille. I'm not certain if a facelift rad will do a pre-fl...
