Hey. The CV joints in my 97 Civic are toast and I need new brake pads.
My questions are;
How hard are the CV joints to replace by myself? As in, is it necessary to coax
someone else into helping with the promise of beer and cookies, or can I save

I replaced the stock dampers and springs on my '91 Civic Si w/ 134k this
past weekend with an aftermarket 'performance' kit (small amount of
lowering, forgot to measure). Luckily I had a bushing kit on hand that I
am going to slowly install over time, because one of the rear ...

Car just passed 50K and I'd like to switch to
Mobil 1 SuperSyn. Should I go with the new 0W-20
or 5W-30?

Anyone heard of any particular, endemic problem with a 1992 Honda
Accord LX in terms of the car not starting well? Most of the time, it
starts fine but sometimes it really struggles - and starts - and other
times it starts but halts right away. Other times, it doesn't start at

could somebody point me to a place online where i can find a cheap ball
joint puller for my 87 accord. if it can also remove tie rods that would be
great too. i have tried using a seperator fork and i feel that they cause
too much damage with the ball joint. i have the honda shop ...

I just recently had my timing belt changed, on a 98 Accord with 118k.  The
mechanic was not a dealer, but specializes in Hondas.  They also replaced
the balance, P/S, and A/C belts.  Supposedly they use genuine Honda parts,
but I noticed the P/S belt was clearly made by Mitsubishi.

I replaced my cap, rotor, and PCV valve with Honda parts about 4
weeks ago on my 98 civic 5spd (205000kms).  I noticed a big difference in
acceleration.  So I gave myself a week to enjoy the newfound peppiness,
and then started driving normally again.

is it possible to reset new ECU's by disconnecting the battery?

Do cold air intakes work?
Does size, make or brand name matter?
Will I notice a difference in power, sound? or is that a myth?
Does this save gas, or is that another myth?

There was sometime back when a link was posted for a service bulletin
about the 03 accord brake issue where the pads and I think rotors get
replaced b/c of a recall. The 03 accord I own was not subject to that
recall. So the honda's owner page does not show me this recall, only

I have 99 Accord 2.0 EXi , during morning when the car is not very well
warmed up  , say the temprature gause is not at half, when I accelerate
the car some how shakes but not misses, is that normal.

I don't know that I'm experiencing an actual problem with the climate
control system in my 1999 EX V6, but it is behaving a little
differently than it has before, so I figured I'd ask.  I've never had
any problem with it before; heat and AC have always worked flawless

Mind windshield wipers won't turn off, even when I turn the switch to the
off position.  I thought there could be a short in the harness to the
wiper motor, maybe some water got in their but that didn't work.  I don't
know how to fix it. Do I need a new wiper motor? HELP!

I've been having great difficulty correctly installing a reman.
driveshaft (Cardone #60-4003) on the driver's side of my '91 Civic Si.
When I install the driveshaft in the transmission it locks into place,
but it is not all the way in. It leaks oil. I replaced the passenger's

I've got a 1996 Accord LX (5 speed manual trans) that's been a great car
but the past couple months it's had some intermittent starting problems.
It happens when the car has been sitting for a while, overnight or 9 hours
during work, I don't think it's happened when the engine is ...
