on acceleration i feel a light stutter while at low speeds in my wifes 08 accord ex v6. it has 89k
spark plugs are new, and check engine light is not on. i did some searching and am thinking maybe i need to clean the egr ports but ive only see this done on older accords from the results that have came up on here & on google.

also i've noticed it doesnt seem as quick as my mothers 05 accord which is also a ex v6 and accelerating from lets say 45 to 55 it doesnt stutter or anything but it just doesnt seem right somehow.

is this the way to go? or could it be something else?

if so is there a diy link somewhere for the 08 accord?

thankyou

 

Just by looking at the intake manifold gasket in the picture below, the EGR port hole is in a similar location compared to the 98-02 V6 accords. The EGR hole is on the opposite end of the #1 label for the intake manifold gasket.

I would expect that a plugged EGR port would give you a check engine error code. My guess is that the procedure would be similar to the 98-02 V6.

Take a look in your owner's manual and see what the maintenance interval is for the spark plugs. Change them if they are due.
