Default New to the site! Lots of questions for everyone

Hey guys my names Mike Iv owned about 4 diff Hondas now and just traded in my 2010 Accord sedan for a 2012 Accord couple! Got it a few days ago and I like it so far.

Its a 2.4L EX-L 5 speed manual.

So here is a few questions for you experts out there who know the car pretty well...

1) After purchasing I noticed a slight wheel vibration at certain speeds (felt like a balance issue). I have not said anything to the dealer about this yet because I read alot online about this being a big problem in the newer accord models. Question is, how serious is this problem and is it going to get worse? Right now its very slight and really doesnt bother me but if its going to get worse then im going to get worried..

2) A big deal about the uncomforable seats iv seen people making. Anyone know anything about this and if it applys to my car? They are nothing nice but not as bad as i read.

and 3) What are the best quick bolt on mods. Including what have people found to be the best intake for the money and HP? Exhaust, suspension (which I like compared to the sedan thats for sure) ect...

All comments are appreciated and Im happy to be a member!

Hello and Welcome to the HAF..
Glad to have you with us...

Take it back to the store you bought it from and tell them to fix that problem #1 before you do anything to it...

Thank you! The reason I have not taken it back is because all I read about this issue everyone says honda refuses to do anything about it. Kinda why I was hoping someone might have some info on the issue? I suppose I should just bring it back im just scared it will be a waste of time

Seems like they would be less likely to do anything for someone who's had the car for a year or 2. In that case they can easily blame driving habits or other stuff. Shouldn't be that way for a car just purchased.
