2013 ex-l v6 noise while running slow
 

I recently bought honda accord 2013 EX-L V6 model. I amexperiencing an issue with it while driving slow. After driving 30-40 mph if Islow down and push the gas pedal again then it makes a noise as if it ispulling a heavy load. One I press it hard then the sound goes off.. It's quiteirritating. I have showed it in the workshop but failed to reproduce the issuewhen the mechanic was in the car. Also, he told me it is usual complaint in the2013 models and they are quite noisy at times. Is there anyone who is experiencingthis problem? Appreciate if you can guide me on how to address this.

Thanks.

Change your brand of gas.

Hi,Thanks for the reply..Do you want me to go for premium gas or do you suggest any brand like shell or bp?

I doubt the car would benefit from higher anti-knock rating; the ECU isn't mapped for that. (assuming it's still stock) Having said that, I really didn't have a clear understanding of what it's doing.

You might try a different brand of fuel, but I've never noticed any difference between any of the major brands in quite a few different cars. But I don't go to the no-name stations with brands I've never heard of before.
