Car Forum / Honda Cars / August 20062006 Accord EX-V6 6-spd idle problem
The dealer is working on it, but I thought I'd ask if anyone has had this issue. This car was purchased new in the spring. At idle, it vibrates. You can see the steering wheel shake, and feel it in the shifter. It's very anoying at stop lights, etc. I have a 2006 EX V6 NAV that does not idle like this. The dealer says yes, there is a problem, but cannot figure it out. Almost seems like something is out of balance in the engine. Car is smooth off idle. Anyone ever heard of this? No codes are being thrown. They checked valve adjustment and changed some Map sensor. No change in the problem.

Look through all these TSB's if you like, especially at the WEBSCO link: http://www.tegger.com/hondafaq/online-manuals.html And these ones too: http://www.tegger.com/hondafaq/tsb/accord/index.html#accord Your PDI sheets are very interesting . . . .

The dealer needs to get Honda in the act. You didn't mention which state you reside in , I would check the lemon laws where you live . You may be entilited to a refund or a new vehicle if the dealer cannot correct the problem . -Dana > The dealer is working on it, but I thought I'd ask if anyone has had this > issue.

Here's an update; The replaced the motor mounts, no change. Now they are replacing the flywheel. This sounds more like the problem, since I stated it seems like an imbalance, not a miss in firing. I will post results when done! PS, If this doesn't fix it, we will be discussing replacement of the car! G-Man > The dealer is working on it, but I thought I'd ask if anyone has had this > issue.
