from wet Southern England. Currently on my 4th Accord, 3 previous coupes but sadly now have 4 doors as needed a diesel as my weekend cars ( 58 Lincoln Continental & 58 Buick Limited aren't cheap to run here ! ). I do my own maintenance on classic cars and want to start doing more on my Accord ( 7th Gen 2006 ) and came here hoping to find some video clips on oil and filter changes and brakes etc, perhaps some of you could guide me in the right direction please? Thanks.

 

Welcome! Got really excited when Honda was going to bring the diesel stateside...and then they didnt. Doesnt it get almost 50mpg?

 

Welcome to the USA

Thank You for joining the HAF..

 

....for the welcome :-) Yes, to and from work in short runs and local driving it's good for around 44 but on a run it's nearer 50 Mpg, which considering my other two cars do 10 & 16 respectively, 50 is very welcome! Would anyone know of a good video for oil filter change on a 7th Gen diesel Accord and whether any special tools needed?

 

Hi, I have a 2004 ictdi, 197,000 miles, for the last few years, I do the oil and air filters, breaks etc but get a friend to do the fuel filter as its a pain in the ***... Located just under the windshield at the back of the engine... You can buy a socket to undo the oil filter cap if you like but that's it, standard enough if you've done oil changes before...Have had to spend quiet a bit on it over the years but I like it and it's economical
