2004 Honda Accord Ex Sedan 4-door 3.0l - Needs Some Work on 2040-cars
Hopewell Junction, New York, United States
|
PLEASE READ ALL DISCLOSURES BELOW BEFORE BIDDING. (ADDITIONAL PICTURES BELOW SCROLL DOWN) I am an honest Ebay seller and up for auction is my personal one owner 2004 Honda Accord EX-L V6. THE CAR HAS SOME ISSUES that may or may not need to be addressed. There is no reserve and highest bid takes the car home along with decision to address any existing issues or drive it as is. DO NOT BID if you do not have the CASH or BANK CERTIFIED CHECK to complete the transaction. Any other form of payment will need to clear my bank account before I give up the title. $300 Paypal deposit due within 24 hours auction end and you must pick up the vehicle with full remaining payment within 7 days of auction end. Title is Clear NYS with one recorded lien and I have the letter from the bank showing the lien bing satisfied quite a few years back. THE BAD: 1) The car has 167,000 miles on it (still being driven around town so mileage may be +/- 200 miles of that number). It's USED with expected parking lot dents and dings scratches. I also tried to repaint the front end 2 yrs ago with DUPLI-color Nighthawk black pearl spay paint a few years ago as the car had front end stone chips and cracking from exposure to sun. It looks like crap now and could use a nice front end paint job as the existing front end paint does not match rest of the vehicle. AND ther is spot on front of hood with minor rust starting to show. SEE Pictures. 2) The engine's #5 cylinder had a spark plug come loose. This is a common problem on Honda v6's. We had to re-tap the spark plug threads and re-threaded with a TIME-SERT copper sleeve. Also replaced the #5 ignition coil. Car runs and idles fine...I have video of the car idling. (google timesert and honda v6 to read about common issue yourself) 3) When starting the car and on occasion while driving, there is a drone type noise present. It feels like a engine mount going bad or some other type of hum. I AM NOT SURE WHAT THE CAUSE IS and as such, this will be up to the winning bidder to decide whether to address (fix) or not. This may be a MAJOR issue or not, however, the car drives fine as is. 4) The ABS system light is on (Pictured). I brought it in to Friendly Honda in Poughkeepsie, NY when the car recently had it's power steering hose recall service performed and they diagnosed it as a bad drivers side seat belt harness. The car still passes NYS inspection, however the cost for the wiring harness, per the service manager is $185 and the seat belt buckle replacement is covered by Honda warranty. I would advise the new owner to have this addressed, however as I stated, the car will pass NYS inspection, as is. 5) The door on the storage cubby, in front of the shifter is broken and does not stay closed. It is stuck in the open position and that's fine by me, but you may want to fix this 6) The pasenger side sunvisor mirror has a broken cover. No need to replace, but want to disclose. 7) The car could use a good interior detail, the driver side seat has cracks in the leather and is understandably worn with 167K miles of use. The carpets and truck could use a good shampoo. I have vacuumed the interior. 8) Car has aftermarket Ipod adapter connector installed, but stopped working a few months ago. no time to fix it. The Good I have religiously maintained the engine and transmission of this car. Outside of the spark plug issue on the #5 cylinder, this car has been the best car I have ever owned and all minor maintenance was done by me. 1) Engine oil and filter changed every 5K miles with Mobil-1 fill synthetic 5W-20 in it since it had 10k miles on odometer 2) Transmission fluid has been drained and filled every 15K miles with OEM Honda ATF Fluid 3) Timing Belt and Spark plugs replaced at 105K miles, as recommended by Honda. The shop owner showed me the belt and it looked new at 105K, but it was replaced along with a new water pump installed. 4) Brake rotors and pads were replaced about 10K miles ago. I only drive highway and my brakes usually last 70-80K miles, so assume at least 50% life left. 5) NO ACCIDENTS - the car looks rough up front, but it is collision free. I have owned it since it had 7 miles on it and it's about 90% highway use... NY roads and salt did in the front end paint job. 6) Includes rear wing and fog lamp options installed by dealer. Spare tire was never used. 7) INCLUDES extra set of matching HONDA rims and tires. The spare set has the all seasons on it right now. I can help you swap it over from the winter that are on the car now. - The all seasons may have another 10k miles of thread left on them and the winter set is about 50% worn 8) Includes WORN but still useable beige weathertech floor mats for front driver and passenger side floor. THAT's it. What you see pictured is what you are bidding on. Please do not bid unless you are sure you are going to buy it. If you have any questions, please contact me via ebay or at 845-243-0060 BEFORE bidding. This is a great car for a mechanic or someone that is handy around cars to fix any existing issues. I am selling it as I have bought a new commuter car with better gas mileage to replace it Good luck...no reserve, and if you have less than 10 feedback, please contact me first with your name and number, before bidding. Otherwise your bid will be cancelled. Thanks |

Honda issues second Fit window recall, this time for 143k units
Mon, 01 Jul 2013Honda has announced it is recalling certain 2007-2008 Fit models in the US to fix what could have been faulty repairs made in a previous round of recalls. The vehicles may have been manufactured with a master driver's window switch that could allow rain water or spilled liquids into the switch. If that happens, the liquids could cause the switch to overheat, melt and potentially damage the vehicle's wiring or cause a fire. Honda says no accidents or injuries have been reported due to the problem, but warns owners to park their Fit hatchbacks outside until a dealer can inspect the switch.
All told, the recall covers 143,083 Fit units. Back in 2010, Honda recalled the 2002-2008 model-year Fit for the same issue. That recall covered some 646,000 units worldwide after a two-year-old child in Cape Town, South Africa burnt to death while sleeping in a Fit. Honda says the repair made during that round of recalls may not have been sufficient, and the latest fix should take care of the problem for good.

Consumer Reports says Toyota, Ford, Honda and Chevy are big winners in brand perception survey
Wed, 05 Feb 2014According to Consumer Reports, the automotive brands that stand out in the minds of car buyers are, in order: Toyota, Ford, Honda and Chevrolet. This news comes after the magazine polled its readers, asking them to take into account vehicle quality, safety, performance, value, fuel economy, design/style, and technology/innovation - which are the factors that car shoppers are most influenced by.
It's important to note that this award is only about perception. In other words, it's perceived quality, not actual quality. "Often, perception can be a trailing indicator, reflecting years of good or bad performance in a category, and it can also be influenced by headlines in the media," said Jeff Bartlett, Consumer Reports deputy automotive editor.
The brand that made the biggest jump in perception amongst Consumer Reports readers is Tesla, which posted an impressive 47-point gain to finish in fifth place. Subaru is also notable for finishing in the top 10, despite being one of the smaller manufacturers doing business in the US. Scroll down below for all the details from Consumer Reports, if you're so inclined.
Honda Civic Tourer reminds us why we love wagons
Tue, 10 Sep 2013It was the early 1990s when the last Honda Civic Wagon graced our shores, looking more like a squat five-door hatchback with an extra dose of charm. Well, Honda debuted the newest Civic Wagon Tourer at the Frankfurt Motor Show today, but, as we reported last month, it's a European model that will go on sale there early next year. There's still no word of it coming to the US.
The Civic Tourer was designed by Honda's European studio, and its overall look comes across as more muscular, sporty and stylish than both the sedan and two-door coupe, with bulging fenders and revised windows. Adrian Killham, large project leader for the Civic Tourer, has commented on the styling, saying, "Recently launched cars have tended to follow a similar style. The Civic Tourer has a different balance and appeal." We appreciate the sentiment, and the Tourer's shape is a big reason why we like it.
But we also like the 22 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats up, which grows to a gargantuan 59 cubic feet with the rear seats folded down. The big Civic will be powered by either a 1.8-liter four-cylinder petrol engine with i-VTEC or a 1.6-liter Earth Dreams i-DTEC diesel engine. Manual and automatic transmissions will be offered.
