D I don't know what's wrong you know can you help me out and tell me what I need what parts and then I'll go buy them and not make you put them into me
I seriously love my honda. I have over 200k miles on it and I can't be any happier. Im hoping that my Honda lasts me my whole life because I don't want to change cars.
I was the 1st owner of my 02 Honda Accord and had all the problems she mention except the windshield and paint one But she is spot on with all the problems...mines has 230 000km and still running... it’s been passed down threw 4 family members 💯🙏

@@Fyourfeelingz 2 years ago i brought a like new yr 2000 Accord SE with 90,000 miles for a good price but it had a slipping tranny, the interior, engine, and seats are flawless, i couldn't say no, but the owners did nothing but oil changes, but the tranny was slipping and possibly could of lost on the deal if i had to buy a rebuilt tranny, so i drained out the black and dirty 3.7 quarts from the bottom plug, then went to autozone and brought a 5ft hose or you can cut an old water hose, took off the top clamp holding the tranny line to the bottom of the radiator, its right above the 2 headed tranny solenoid right in front of the engine, put the hose over the silver metal line and have someone with a funnel ready to start pouring original honda tranny fluid when you start the engine and run the dirty remaining radiator tranny fluid into a flat 5 gallon container from Walmart waiting to catch the dirty fluid, replace the tranny bottom plug and pour in 2 quarts then start engine and have assistant immediately pour more tranny fluid in fast to keep up with the fluid busting out the hose into the container, once you see the clearer fluid after only 10 seconds immediately stop engine, remove hose and reclamp tranny hose and top off with fluid but the secret is make sure you add 8oz of original Lubegurd fluid as part of the top off refill line on dipstick, only 8 ounces, after 50 miles the slipping went away and i got 17,000 miles with no tranny issues since, i feel like i got another 100,000 in that tranny, but you gotta learn how to give those cars enough time to shift gears, ya gotta push the gas pedal slightly to work with the gears shifting on that model, dont gun it from a dead start and take off too fast the tranny cant keep up and you strain it, you gotta feel and listen to the gears shifting, you will piss off some A holes who tailgate you but your trying to avoid a new tranny, and remember those 98-2002 4 cyl hondas only want original dealer tranny fluid at $ 9 a quart, do not put any other fluid from autozone or O Reilly's that says its just as good in that Honda.
Have a 2000 Accord V6 Coupe bought new with 7 miles on the clock. Have had none of these issues. I can remember the repairs needed off the top of my head... one wheel bearing, one set of brakes, one set of tires, prophylactic replacement of timing belt at 100K, hoses & drive belts once. Four batteries. One fuel pump. One fuel pump relay. Recently had to clean the driver's seat belt latch to fix an SRS code. Regular maintenance. As to the trans, at 30K miles, I installed a cooler line filter (Magnefine) and for many years did the trans fluid (full change) at 30K but now do just a D&F at 30K. Still has the original exhaust. No, we are not out west... Ohio... but the car gets regular washes (underside too) over the course of the winter. I was once an ASE Certified tech, so I do everything but alignments. I am not an excessive maintainer, either. Car is just ultra reliable, easy to care for and has been a joy to own. We keep saying that we will be buried in the car.
I have a 2002 Honda Accord EX V6 coupe with 215k miles, never replaced the transmission yet knock on wood. Never had any problems. Grandma was the first owner now I own it (her grandson). That Accord I have still smooth the day she bought it new. Keeping mine till she breaks.
I have a 1999 accord and just hit 102,800 miles on it today! I watched this video and learned some good facts about this model that I didn’t know about before. Thank you!
I just bought a 1999 Honda accord with a 4 cylinder with 362,000 miles on it yesterday for my son. My Neace and her husband bought it new and when they were thru with it they gave it to their grand daughter. I know the car has been maintained properly. She got a newer car and i purchased it from them. Thanks for the video with the problems listed. I will check it out for these problems. Keep up the good work.
Yeah great cars man mine runs great but I fucked it up recently kinda touched a guard rail on the highway “tire blew” but it’s clean af I’m trying to sell it some idiot wanted to give me 150 I want 800
Rusty gas tank seams/brake lines, 4cyl auto trans, worn ball joints, radiator end tanks and rusted subframes seem like common issues I’ve seen on these. Still see a lot of these on the road today for being 20 years old
I must have gotten lucky. Bought a 2001 Accord V-6 brand new. Never had a problem at all with it. Kept it for 368,000. Bought 4 more Accords since and currently own 2 now. Hard to trust another brand.
Me too, I am a Honda Owner Since I was 12 yrs old . ( Honda Trail 70 ) still have it . My current Honda is A 98’ Accord. V6 -268,335 miles Transmission slips but doing ok .
Thank-you for this information! My 2000 EX6 has 317,000 miles and the transmission is just now hanging between shifts when cold. Yes and everything else you mentioned has happened, but the windshield leaks. My sunroof drains disconnected and leaked on the floor. With some help from other Honda owners and UA-cam I was able to remedy that 🙂
I have an 03 V6 with 200K. Bought it around 6 years ago. AC doesn't work, no paint issues, have to add trans fluid at least once a month, sometimes more. Power steering leaks and I cannot get it to stop. Runs freakin great. Very quick. My first Honda and actually I like it alot. Even with the trans issue.
Keep an eye on the PS fluid level on these older Accords too. My '01 is low miles and spent a life garage kept, but still the pressure hose going from pump down behind the engine to the rack developed a leak and required replacement. Was not an easy repair at all. Thanks for the cool video!
I had my PS pump up and eat itself about 4 years ago rolling down the Interstate. It started making the usual howl/hum song of imminent failure, and wrecked itself as I was pulling into a McD's for lunch. :D I cut the belt off, and manhandled the steering wheel the rest of the way home. Fun times. :D
I have a 2000 Honda Accord EX V6 Sedan, (Dark Emerald Pearl)---Green. It's my daily driver car & even with ***351,000 Miles on my car*** My 2000 Accord EX V6 still runs (& looks) just like a brand new car. Mine previously had the paint/clearcoat issue & I had the car sanded & then repainted properly with (the original factory Honda paint). It's absolutely beautiful! The 6th Generation Honda Accord has a classic or timeless body style that will always be in style & I wouldn't trade my 2000, not even for a brand new 2021. -I highly recommend the 6th Generation Honda Accord. :-)
@@gfriedman99 I actually took my car to a Honda Dealership & I had their body shop guy work with one of those "$399 paint special places", but prior to letting the cheaper place paint my car. I went over the car with their staff and I pointed out the little minor stone & rock chips, as well as door dings or scratches from shopping carts etc.. (from over the years). I had them sand down those little dings, as well as sand down the old defective paint, as well as paint it Honda's Dark Emerald Pearl, with the proper clearcoat. It cost me about $880 total, but it was sooo worth (every) penny. Whenever I park somewhere or stop off for gas I get compliments, as it literally looks like I just drove it out of the showroom. :-) :-)
That first problem you mentioned, the transmission, that's a HUGE problem. I had to pay $1900 on my V6 to get the transmission rebuild. Buyer beware. (If this one fails I'm looking at swapping a stick from a Acura CL of the same generation)
@@StillLifeHomocide it should. I'm assuming the rebuild you got came with some upgrades. Usually they do. Rebuild kits tend to focus on the weaknesses of the transmission and improving the durability. One thing I would absolutely 100% recommend to you now is to get a transmission oil/fluid cooler. They're decently cheap ($50 or so) and are easy to install. If you pay someone to do the install you're looking at less than an hour, maybe half hour. From what I've heard the transmission oil coolers that look like radiators are best (that's the one I got). They have ones that have tubes running through them but I heard that the ones without the tubes work better. A transmission oil cooler will extend the life of the transmission. Heat usually is what kills transmissions
Wow, what a great video and information on the Accord. I have a 2000 Accord V-6 that I bought brand new and so far I’ve not had any of these problems as of yet and hope I never do but maybe the reason for that is that my Accord only has 60,000 miles and it’s always parked in the garage. But for sure I’ll be checking these areas you pointed out. Thank you so much.
A huge problem with these cars is the main fuel relay. The solder joints crack causing loss of contact when they warm up. They can easily be re-soldered though. The support under the fuel tank is prone to catching rocks/gravel as well, and requires removing the entire rear subframe to access the tank, if something happens to wear a pinhole.
Ikr... My car wasn't starting after i bought it. Went through the forums and they all said too do the same.... Resolder the main fuel relay... Did it low and behold started right up
My dad bought me a 2001 Honda Accord for $400 and I had to get a fuel tank and a new muffler and the fuel tank neck put in cuz it was leaking gas and the strut bolt 🔩 other than that the paint jobs not that bad and I got a slight split on the front glass windowsill I'm going to get that fixed with my insurance cuz I have full covers on it
Thanks. I have a 99 Accord, 4 cyl, automatic. Fortunately, I've had none of the 5 problems in this vid. But I had these two problems: the Shut-Off Valve, (Evap leak), replaced once, and the Ignition Starter Switch (car died randomly), which had to be replaced twice. These seemed two very common problems in the Honda 6th gen accord users discussion web site. The car looks pretty new and drives just as when I bought it in 1998. I love this car.
I love Honda, and I love 1A auto even more for having all the parts I need at an amazing price. My 2006 civic with 205k miles feels like a brand new car, ready for another 100k. Thank you 1A auto, y’all are doings gods work.
I have a 02 lx but i believe its the 2.2 or 2.4 vtec. But my 2nd gear slips bad I cant go past 3000 rpm if im going less than 25 mph after 25 my car starts pulling :/
your awesome! my 02 accord just hit 200k. my 1st stop was to replace timing belt and water pump. 1400 dollars later...I'm cruising again. love this car.
I had to rebuilt my transmission twice. When I went to Honda dealer first time they told me my car was passed the warranty, and yet, they wouldn't put it on "the recalls"
They dont work with you My trans is going now.on 2002 with only 103k miles. Said 5k don't drive car. I had gas leak in 2011 1k for that windshield issues gas gasket issues and timing belt. =(
I’ve had my sixth generation Accord since new and I’ve had all the problems you mentioned except the paint. I drive pretty aggressively so I’ve had four transmissions (she’s right about Honda taking care of it because the last one was replaced at 120,000 miles!) and three motor mounts on the front and one in the rear. Fortunately/unfortunately my windshield was replaced early on because of a crack so I haven’t had a problem with the window seal. Two things you didn’t mention that I found out from my car was the seam sealer under the back windshield at the rear quarter panels leaked water inside of the trunk… I cleaned it, taped it off and resealed it. The other thing was the power Driver seat rocks back-and-forth and it drives me crazy, but it’s pretty common and Honda had a service bulletin that was performed but didn’t work long term. It’s nearing 300,000 miles and still performs fairly well, but it’s tired and wants stuff but I’m not sure if I can justify fixing since it’s worth nothing more than a sentimental value.
@@arteson6093 My situation was different, my transmission that failed was a replacement that was done under warranty. When *it* died it was out by time and not mileage, so they gave me that offer.
My 01 Accord EX Sedan has a manual transmission and just hit 150k miles and hasn’t given me any problems at all! Amazing reliable car Honda at its finest
Just a heads up I actually found the reason and how to fix the transmission, it's the thrust washer for 3rd clutch pack on the 5 speeds and 2nd clutch pack for 4 speed. the oil lubrication holes are too small, the updated thrust washer fixes it except for the 4 speed which you will have to ream out larger holes yourself. I filmed a 29 part video explaining how to fix the transmission on my channel, not for the feint of heart though, only hardcore Honda owners will want to try this fix, the ONLY way to fix it. it's on my channel just browse through it
213k on my 5 speed. Order parts at 1A Auto all the time. Only thing i had to replace were my motor mounts for this list. Will keep an eye out for the others.
2000 Accord with over 324k on it and still running great! Still has the original motor and transmission. I just wish the paint looked as good as it ran.
This is why I went with a WHITE paint job, it lasts longer. I am a former Aircraft Structural Mechanic, USCG, 21 years, I know a little about paint. I have a 1998 Honda Accord, in the south, NO rust at all and over 515,000 miles. Easy to work on. About to give it away to a lucky friend and go Cybertruck, have two on reserve.
Just recently bought a 1999 Honda Accord LX that has 58K miles on it. It has the 2.3L 4 cylinder engine, and it reallly drives nice. Only driven it a few days, though, so I'll have to wait and see how things go with the car.
@@Gatorbags23 After 4 months, so far, so good. The only thing I've had to fix is the switch on the driver side door that controls the dome light. Honda has an exterior switch on the door frame that when you close the door, the switch is pressed in to turn off the dome light. When you open the door, the switch pops up to turn on the light. The original switch was stuck in the off position, so I had to replace it. Cost about 10 dollars, but it's an easy fix. I also got a Carfax Maintenance Report about two months after I bought the car. This report shows all the reported maintenance on the car since the original owner had it. I was concerned about the timing belt and water pump. Honda's recommendation for replacing these is 100k miles. However, the previous owner replaced the timing belt and water pump at 54k miles. So, the timing belt and water pump were only 4000 miles old when I bought the car.
Very nice clear and concise. Well done. The issue with the paint is that it was not clear coated because they thought it looked better without it. However it is the clear coat that gives UV protection to the ultra thin color coat. So after some time especially cars parked in the hot sun the color coat will flake off exposing the primer below.
Nooo lol I plan to swap my 04 civic with a 3.0 6 speed found one all I have to do it pull it out the guy said he'll let the accord go for 850 full car runs and drives just a matter of just fab work and swapping everything over
@@xrxckyx9210 sorry for reply weeks later but the 2nd day I had it I needed a new starter and I had an oil leak then in March I had to swap my engine for some reason the a month later I had to swap my motor which was BS
I have a 2001 Honda Accord 4 door exv6. It’s been my daily for over 15 years. And I’m currently at 297,000 miles. The only main issue I’ve had was a clogged egr valve. It’s best to take off the intake manifold and clean out the port and remove the water passage housing and clean the ports there too.
getting my trans solenoid replaced now. the part was $300...but the mechanic said no charge on labor swapping old one out. he discovered the bad one while changing my engine mounts. pup has 213 on it. id like to take it to 300k
With exception to the crappy paint that all hondas of this generation had, all the problems she mentions apply to the V6 model. She is right, all Acura/Hondas of this era with V6 automatics were horrible and had lots of problems with their transmissions. I had a 2000 EX-L coup 4cyl with manual trans that I bought brand new and put 350,000 miles on it. When I sold it, It still had the factory clutch. These cars are super, super reliable. I'm currently looking for another 98-02 EX-L 5spd manual for my son to go to high school.
Thank you for the heads up, I'm picking up a 99 that has a bad cat and needs a tune up, my hope is to only put $300 to get it back on the road. So far though it has been a good car for my sister
The problem with the clear coat deterioration is that the rest of the car lasts two, three or four times longer than most other cars that would have long since been left in the junk yard before any paint problem occurred. I have 378,000+ miles on my original 4-cyl engine and automatic transmission on my 96 Accord. I see many videos on YT about other makes, luxury, midrange and econoboxes heading to the scrap yard at as early as 50k miles needing uneconomical repairs, but have nearly perfect paint.
The paint issue looks like a clearcoat that’s 1. Bad product 2. Improper prep. If it was bad primer the base coat would be coming off which in these cars that doesn’t happen. Great video! The one thing I would add is Honda’s in general have A/C issues. Later ones it was a relay problem, but it’s super common to see them go through a few AC compressors over the course of 300,000 vs Toyota’s made in Japan that seem to have very little ac issues. Thanks!
Making new videos on older cars, cool. I've done a couple of drains of the ATF in the 8K miles I've had it. Took off the intake manifold and did a bit of a cleaning of those ports, but i know i didn't do it that well. I'll check the EGR valve. Mounts were done before I got the car.
I finally found my car ! It's my 3rd one now ! First one was 4 cyl auto and the trans was slipping... Had one SE green like that and the clear was burned all around the car ! And now I have an EX with all équipements 😍
@@1AAuto you mentioned that Honda was aware of some of these issues in this particular video, would that possibly allow for me to negotiate a lower repair price if having repairs done at a Honda dealership?
Avoid Honda’s like the plague... engine dies and you wasted your money... transmission is just an extension of the engine. Their transmissions are crap. Only buy Honda if it’s stick shift. If you got money to buy a new transmission for the Honda, go buy a better car 😂
In regards to the paint, both my 02 and 06 are in perfect condition due to I wax and polish them every 6 months. Both with leather interior trim looking brand new. I've used Meguiars wax and polishes using a buffer.
That's good to know. If it well taken care of it should be fine. Thank you for checking out the video. If you need auto parts go to: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
What color paint is the 02? Not all the colors have the problem. Plus it will only happen if you park the car outside. If the car is garaged the sun wont burn off the paint. Waxing it wont help.
02 has 176,000 miles and the 06 has 119,000 miles. The only reason the 06 has low mileage is because its my weekend car and getting little mods a little at a time.
aww, My dad had one of these. Always drove me to school in this. It was a MANUAL transmission, and I loved it. I miss it because he sold to his cousin. luckily I still see it sometimes, but I miss it. maybe my favorite Honda from past experience. And yes the paint was horrible on the hood. I remember one time it was new years and I sat on his hood. honestly I have had some amazing memories with this car. He sold it because of the engine problems, then bought a 2014 hyundai elantra, then about a year later bought a 2019 toyota corrola. I love to watch videos about cars that I used to ride in.
I have a 99 accord 4cyl I purchased used the trans lasted 1 month it waa.working but only.for just 1 month I did a Manual swap transmisión and boom its easier to fix and no headache but really transmisión is the most common Great video

How about the moon roof drain hoses that shrink and disconnect from the drain outlets in the front fender wells causing a flood inside the car every time it rains? I had that problem with mine and fixed it by extending the hoses so they could be reconnected.
Could you please insert the info about the part number for the EGR clean out tool into the description? Also, please do a show on the 94-97 series four cylinder model.
02 Honda Accord with 2.3, 284,000 plus miles and I've only encountered one of these problems, the negative battery cable. I ended up buying another OEM cable and covered that exposed area. Only ONE reason why they made them that way, so you'd have issues and bring it in to the dealer. However, you forgot about the other issue these accords have, but can be cheaply fixed if you're willing to do the work yourself like I have. And those faulty transmissions mainly come from the V6 models, the 2.3 engines didn't have transmission issues unless neglected... at least mine hasn't of yet.
@@yildendelta6761 as of last month my transmission finally gave out, it has 336,000 on it, motor still going good though. Like anything, you take care of it they'll go a lot further.
@@garyr7027 The engine is running perfectly, but I ran into this well known transmission problem with the 1998s. Once I get it back all should be fine. I'm glad you didn't have this problem, that's great. Love this car, ratty paint and all.
@@yildendelta6761 you mentioned 1998... could be by the 2002 years they had transmission issues fixed? Sometimes it works like that, later year generations get the flaws worked out.
She was great! Easy to understand.. not awkward.. and to the point.. I have two of these a coupe and sedan.. love them both, but damn that EGR!!! On my sedan that I just picked up I'm having some crazy pinging at low rpm? Thoughts anyone? I was thinking maybe the EGR? No code other than P1495 VAP leak.
My 1998 accord lx trans was slipping and slamming hard when it did engage. I got a hand pump (gear oil type) pumped out 3+ quarts and put in new import t-fluid... Shifting fine now! The old fluid was black and very thin like water. Replace it, before adding any treatments...jmo.
Main relay - occasionaly. vtec seal - every engine they've made, cam seal -don't use too much oil and dog it, window issues - every car with power windows if you use them daily for years.
#6 Right side subframe rusting out from AC line dripping onto subframe which was fixed in the 2003 model year by locating the AC drain line to a new location.
First vid I see and to see a woman tell me what are the problems my car has just did it for me and subscribed. I just hope that if I have a question on my baby you can answer me and walk me slow and easy thru a repair.thank you.
You wanna be sure to open the inner slider panel when parked overnight so it can air out the condensation that always collects there - consistent with UV concerns with your interior of course. also helps to crack the driver front & passenger windows sightly with the heater on when driving, preferably set to the "outside airflow" setting. Really pulls out the moisture that collects in these cars on account of their excellent weather sealing.
@@bobbofly when rain leaks down inside from the front pilar it pours over the MICU ("Body Electrical Computer") electronic board and develops oxydation bridges. It only needs a good cleaning if you're lucky. Manifestation will be error codes and erratic functioning. (04-TL@150KMi)
Damn V6's absolutely murder their mounts in this period of Honda/Acura! Owned an 08 TL and an 06 MDX currently and I've had to replace mounts 3 times between them. Didn't use OE parts on the TL and they only lasted a year max. We're going OE on the MDX....Hopefully they last much longer.
Man I really lucked out with my 00' v6. Whoever owned it always brought it to Honda, it's at 186k and I got it around 176k so I'm doing cabin filters and tires and all high milage matinence and everything I'm replacing is honda stuff with michelin tires so they maintained the car well and were willi ng to spend what was necessary. aside from a throttle body for 130.00 rebuilt I've had to do nothing on the accord. The trans does shift hard if not warmed up but the color and smell were fine just added a Lucas thickener in two installments over like 5k miles and it has seemed to help a lot, especially once driving for a few minutes the car shifts well. Wish I could have found an Acura cl from that era with the manual for a fair price. One of the few Honda products of the gen with a very soild trans.
@@SliceofHamGaming The Lucas trans fix, the fluid is a red color. Put the bottle in over 7kish miles two separate times. Accords at 196k now and still runs great, both engine and transmission.
Very good. Please do this for the four cyl. F23 A is 3/4 of all sixth generation cars. Also has EGR coke issue and idle control valve issues and PCV issues. Explain the universal #2 intake valve chatter during idle. VVT valve solenoid failure, weak door lock actuators, climate control panel power loss, and the water pump seizing is what usually breaks the timing belt. Factory recommended Coolant replacement every other year keeps it lubricated and stops seal wear allowing 100,000 miles between changes. The manual transmission is very reliable, but the standard engine and trans mounts also crack. The tail lights fill with rain water requiring new gaskets siliconed to the housing. ABS brakes have troublesome accumulators. And the front calipers on all the four-cylinder cars have a tendency to hang up and warp the rotors. The anti vibration rubber seal on the caliper pins requires special silicone grease to keep from swelling and binding the rubber. The flex coupling on the front exhaust pipe usually goes around 70,000 or seven years as does the sway bar bushings.
Love my Honda Accord V6 but I have literally had every single problem on this list. Replaced Motor mounts, remanufactured Transmission, Bad negative battery wirinig, EGR cleanings. The only things I haven't had is the windshield issue, probably because I live in Arizona and the paint. I religiously washed monthly and waxed at least twice a year and never let the car go more than three years without a clean polish.
I was just thinking the same thing since I run 2 Rockford fosgate gate t1-12s. I noticed the battery terminals was like that when I was doing my valve cover gasket yesterday. I was like hmm big 3 to fix ground terminal 😂
Just purchased a 1999 accord with the 2.4, aside from a bad tie rod, and the cruise control working it runs and drives super smooth. It's got 206k on it, just wondering what are some things i should check for/ be wary of?
Everything, besides the egr and the seal problems, I dealt with. Loved that car but those things weren't kept up by the old owner so when I hit a certain milage, everything was a problem. Transmission, paint, engine mounts.

@@Fyourfeelingz 2 years ago i brought a like new yr 2000 Accord SE with 90,000 miles for a good price but it had a slipping tranny, the interior, engine, and seats are flawless, i couldn't say no, but the owners did nothing but oil changes, but the tranny was slipping and possibly could of lost on the deal if i had to buy a rebuilt tranny, so i drained out the black and dirty 3.7 quarts from the bottom plug, then went to autozone and brought a 5ft hose or you can cut an old water hose, took off the top clamp holding the tranny line to the bottom of the radiator, its right above the 2 headed tranny solenoid right in front of the engine, put the hose over the silver metal line and have someone with a funnel ready to start pouring original honda tranny fluid when you start the engine and run the dirty remaining radiator tranny fluid into a flat 5 gallon container from Walmart waiting to catch the dirty fluid, replace the tranny bottom plug and pour in 2 quarts then start engine and have assistant immediately pour more tranny fluid in fast to keep up with the fluid busting out the hose into the container, once you see the clearer fluid after only 10 seconds immediately stop engine, remove hose and reclamp tranny hose and top off with fluid but the secret is make sure you add 8oz of original Lubegurd fluid as part of the top off refill line on dipstick, only 8 ounces, after 50 miles the slipping went away and i got 17,000 miles with no tranny issues since, i feel like i got another 100,000 in that tranny, but you gotta learn how to give those cars enough time to shift gears, ya gotta push the gas pedal slightly to work with the gears shifting on that model, dont gun it from a dead start and take off too fast the tranny cant keep up and you strain it, you gotta feel and listen to the gears shifting, you will piss off some A holes who tailgate you but your trying to avoid a new tranny, and remember those 98-2002 4 cyl hondas only want original dealer tranny fluid at $ 9 a quart, do not put any other fluid from autozone or O Reilly's that says its just as good in that Honda.
@@VM1LIVE hey I been wanting to install a touch screen on mine, which one did you choose?
Have a 2000 Accord V6 Coupe bought new with 7 miles on the clock. Have had none of these issues. I can remember the repairs needed off the top of my head... one wheel bearing, one set of brakes, one set of tires, prophylactic replacement of timing belt at 100K, hoses & drive belts once. Four batteries. One fuel pump. One fuel pump relay. Recently had to clean the driver's seat belt latch to fix an SRS code. Regular maintenance. As to the trans, at 30K miles, I installed a cooler line filter (Magnefine) and for many years did the trans fluid (full change) at 30K but now do just a D&F at 30K. Still has the original exhaust. No, we are not out west... Ohio... but the car gets regular washes (underside too) over the course of the winter. I was once an ASE Certified tech, so I do everything but alignments. I am not an excessive maintainer, either. Car is just ultra reliable, easy to care for and has been a joy to own. We keep saying that we will be buried in the car.
how many miles on it?
@@glennhansel9411 As of today 110580.
I have a 2002 Honda Accord EX V6 coupe with 215k miles, never replaced the transmission yet knock on wood. Never had any problems. Grandma was the first owner now I own it (her grandson). That Accord I have still smooth the day she bought it new. Keeping mine till she breaks.

Hey Joe, I am jealous 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I have a 2000 with only 258,900 miles. How did you manage to beat me?
Thank-you for this information! My 2000 EX6 has 317,000 miles and the transmission is just now hanging between shifts when cold. Yes and everything else you mentioned has happened, but the windshield leaks. My sunroof drains disconnected and leaked on the floor. With some help from other Honda owners and UA-cam I was able to remedy that 🙂
I have an 03 V6 with 200K. Bought it around 6 years ago. AC doesn't work, no paint issues, have to add trans fluid at least once a month, sometimes more. Power steering leaks and I cannot get it to stop. Runs freakin great. Very quick. My first Honda and actually I like it alot. Even with the trans issue.
Keep an eye on the PS fluid level on these older Accords too. My '01 is low miles and spent a life garage kept, but still the pressure hose going from pump down behind the engine to the rack developed a leak and required replacement. Was not an easy repair at all. Thanks for the cool video!
Did u do it or have tech do it?
The lift I usually use was tied up a while, so I had a nice little shop do it. They didn't have fun with it either.
It developed a leak in the middle of the hose? Rather odd. My PS pump slowly loses fluid. I used Bardahl and it virtually stopped the fluid loss.
More close to the end near the rack, well behind the engine. Impossible to see from above.
I had my PS pump up and eat itself about 4 years ago rolling down the Interstate. It started making the usual howl/hum song of imminent failure, and wrecked itself as I was pulling into a McD's for lunch. :D I cut the belt off, and manhandled the steering wheel the rest of the way home. Fun times. :D
I have a 2000 Honda Accord EX V6 Sedan, (Dark Emerald Pearl)---Green. It's my daily driver car & even with ***351,000 Miles on my car*** My 2000 Accord EX V6 still runs (& looks) just like a brand new car. Mine previously had the paint/clearcoat issue & I had the car sanded & then repainted properly with (the original factory Honda paint). It's absolutely beautiful! The 6th Generation Honda Accord has a classic or timeless body style that will always be in style & I wouldn't trade my 2000, not even for a brand new 2021. -I highly recommend the 6th Generation Honda Accord. :-)
Nice! Thanks for watching!
How much for the paint job?
@@gfriedman99 I actually took my car to a Honda Dealership & I had their body shop guy work with one of those "$399 paint special places", but prior to letting the cheaper place paint my car. I went over the car with their staff and I pointed out the little minor stone & rock chips, as well as door dings or scratches from shopping carts etc.. (from over the years). I had them sand down those little dings, as well as sand down the old defective paint, as well as paint it Honda's Dark Emerald Pearl, with the proper clearcoat. It cost me about $880 total, but it was sooo worth (every) penny. Whenever I park somewhere or stop off for gas I get compliments, as it literally looks like I just drove it out of the showroom. :-) :-)
Thanks for the comment. I'm buying this exact same model with only 180,000kms on it so that helps
@@danielowen926 If you keep your oil changed, it'll run forever. I'm at 393,332 miles today & still going. 😁😁
That first problem you mentioned, the transmission, that's a HUGE problem. I had to pay $1900 on my V6 to get the transmission rebuild. Buyer beware. (If this one fails I'm looking at swapping a stick from a Acura CL of the same generation)
Thank you for checking out the video. If you need auto parts go to: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
Same!!! Had to pay 2200 to get a rebuild. Praying it doesn't happen again for a long time.
@@StillLifeHomocide it should. I'm assuming the rebuild you got came with some upgrades. Usually they do. Rebuild kits tend to focus on the weaknesses of the transmission and improving the durability. One thing I would absolutely 100% recommend to you now is to get a transmission oil/fluid cooler. They're decently cheap ($50 or so) and are easy to install. If you pay someone to do the install you're looking at less than an hour, maybe half hour. From what I've heard the transmission oil coolers that look like radiators are best (that's the one I got). They have ones that have tubes running through them but I heard that the ones without the tubes work better. A transmission oil cooler will extend the life of the transmission. Heat usually is what kills transmissions
Did you test the 2md and 3rd gear pressure switch
Wow, what a great video and information on the Accord. I have a 2000 Accord V-6 that I bought brand new and so far I’ve not had any of these problems as of yet and hope I never do but maybe the reason for that is that my Accord only has 60,000 miles and it’s always parked in the garage. But for sure I’ll be checking these areas you pointed out. Thank you so much.
Glad you like the video. Thanks for watching!
A huge problem with these cars is the main fuel relay. The solder joints crack causing loss of contact when they warm up. They can easily be re-soldered though. The support under the fuel tank is prone to catching rocks/gravel as well, and requires removing the entire rear subframe to access the tank, if something happens to wear a pinhole.
Ikr... My car wasn't starting after i bought it. Went through the forums and they all said too do the same.... Resolder the main fuel relay... Did it low and behold started right up
My dad bought me a 2001 Honda Accord for $400 and I had to get a fuel tank and a new muffler and the fuel tank neck put in cuz it was leaking gas and the strut bolt 🔩 other than that the paint jobs not that bad and I got a slight split on the front glass windowsill I'm going to get that fixed with my insurance cuz I have full covers on it
Thanks. I have a 99 Accord, 4 cyl, automatic. Fortunately, I've had none of the 5 problems in this vid. But I had these two problems: the Shut-Off Valve, (Evap leak), replaced once, and the Ignition Starter Switch (car died randomly), which had to be replaced twice. These seemed two very common problems in the Honda 6th gen accord users discussion web site. The car looks pretty new and drives just as when I bought it in 1998. I love this car.

It was a "secret" warranty. If you went to the dealer with a bad transmission they would call the field rep and either replace it or share the cost.
I love this ladies videos, she gets right to the point and no extra story and nonsense. Sometimes i like that, but sometimes I just need the info
Hello, great video. I have one question, where do you buy a flex drill for the EGR port?
I’ve had my sixth generation Accord since new and I’ve had all the problems you mentioned except the paint. I drive pretty aggressively so I’ve had four transmissions (she’s right about Honda taking care of it because the last one was replaced at 120,000 miles!) and three motor mounts on the front and one in the rear. Fortunately/unfortunately my windshield was replaced early on because of a crack so I haven’t had a problem with the window seal. Two things you didn’t mention that I found out from my car was the seam sealer under the back windshield at the rear quarter panels leaked water inside of the trunk… I cleaned it, taped it off and resealed it. The other thing was the power Driver seat rocks back-and-forth and it drives me crazy, but it’s pretty common and Honda had a service bulletin that was performed but didn’t work long term. It’s nearing 300,000 miles and still performs fairly well, but it’s tired and wants stuff but I’m not sure if I can justify fixing since it’s worth nothing more than a sentimental value.
Honda replaced the transmission for free? Or what do you mean by honda taking care of it?

Just a heads up I actually found the reason and how to fix the transmission, it's the thrust washer for 3rd clutch pack on the 5 speeds and 2nd clutch pack for 4 speed. the oil lubrication holes are too small, the updated thrust washer fixes it except for the 4 speed which you will have to ream out larger holes yourself. I filmed a 29 part video explaining how to fix the transmission on my channel, not for the feint of heart though, only hardcore Honda owners will want to try this fix, the ONLY way to fix it. it's on my channel just browse through it
213k on my 5 speed. Order parts at 1A Auto all the time. Only thing i had to replace were my motor mounts for this list. Will keep an eye out for the others.

Just recently bought a 1999 Honda Accord LX that has 58K miles on it. It has the 2.3L 4 cylinder engine, and it reallly drives nice. Only driven it a few days, though, so I'll have to wait and see how things go with the car.
How has it been?
@@Gatorbags23 After 4 months, so far, so good. The only thing I've had to fix is the switch on the driver side door that controls the dome light. Honda has an exterior switch on the door frame that when you close the door, the switch is pressed in to turn off the dome light. When you open the door, the switch pops up to turn on the light. The original switch was stuck in the off position, so I had to replace it. Cost about 10 dollars, but it's an easy fix. I also got a Carfax Maintenance Report about two months after I bought the car. This report shows all the reported maintenance on the car since the original owner had it. I was concerned about the timing belt and water pump. Honda's recommendation for replacing these is 100k miles. However, the previous owner replaced the timing belt and water pump at 54k miles. So, the timing belt and water pump were only 4000 miles old when I bought the car.
Very nice clear and concise. Well done. The issue with the paint is that it was not clear coated because they thought it looked better without it. However it is the clear coat that gives UV protection to the ultra thin color coat. So after some time especially cars parked in the hot sun the color coat will flake off exposing the primer below.

With exception to the crappy paint that all hondas of this generation had, all the problems she mentions apply to the V6 model. She is right, all Acura/Hondas of this era with V6 automatics were horrible and had lots of problems with their transmissions. I had a 2000 EX-L coup 4cyl with manual trans that I bought brand new and put 350,000 miles on it. When I sold it, It still had the factory clutch. These cars are super, super reliable.

Great video.. Id like once to see all 3 of you making a tutorial together
Great idea! Thanks for the suggestion, Sagi!
Just got one myself my cousins helping me do it up, thanks so much for the video this was very informative and taught me a lot about my new baby.
The problem with the clear coat deterioration is that the rest of the car lasts two, three or four times longer than most other cars that would have long since been left in the junk yard before any paint problem occurred. I have 378,000+ miles on my original 4-cyl engine and automatic transmission on my 96 Accord.
I see many videos on YT about other makes, luxury, midrange and econoboxes heading to the scrap yard at as early as 50k miles needing uneconomical repairs, but have nearly perfect paint.
The paint issue looks like a clearcoat that’s 1. Bad product 2. Improper prep. If it was bad primer the base coat would be coming off which in these cars that doesn’t happen.
Great video! The one thing I would add is Honda’s in general have A/C issues. Later ones it was a relay problem, but it’s super common to see them go through a few AC compressors over the course of 300,000 vs Toyota’s made in Japan that seem to have very little ac issues. Thanks!
Making new videos on older cars, cool. I've done a couple of drains of the ATF in the 8K miles I've had it. Took off the intake manifold and did a bit of a cleaning of those ports, but i know i didn't do it that well. I'll check the EGR valve. Mounts were done before I got the car.

What color paint is the 02? Not all the colors have the problem. Plus it will only happen if you park the car outside. If the car is garaged the sun wont burn off the paint. Waxing it wont help.
The 02 and the 06 are silver, both stay outside never garaged, the 06 is the only one that has a car cover, the 02 is my daily driver.
02 has 176,000 miles and the 06 has 119,000 miles. The only reason the 06 has low mileage is because its my weekend car and getting little mods a little at a time.
aww, My dad had one of these. Always drove me to school in this. It was a MANUAL transmission, and I loved it. I miss it because he sold to his cousin. luckily I still see it sometimes, but I miss it. maybe my favorite Honda from past experience. And yes the paint was horrible on the hood. I remember one time it was new years and I sat on his hood. honestly I have had some amazing memories with this car.

However, you forgot about the other issue these accords have, but can be cheaply fixed if you're willing to do the work yourself like I have. And those faulty transmissions mainly come from the V6 models, the 2.3 engines didn't have transmission issues unless neglected... at least mine hasn't of yet.

Am having my 98 2.3l tyranny rebuilt as we speak, and everyone Includind dealer told me it happens to almost all of them after 150,000 miles.
@@yildendelta6761 as of last month my transmission finally gave out, it has 336,000 on it, motor still going good though. Like anything, you take care of it they'll go a lot further.
@@garyr7027 The engine is running perfectly, but I ran into this well known transmission problem with the 1998s. Once I get it back all should be fine. I'm glad you didn't have this problem, that's great. Love this car, ratty paint and all.
@@yildendelta6761 you mentioned 1998... could be by the 2002 years they had transmission issues fixed? Sometimes it works like that, later year generations get the flaws worked out.
Yes. Exactly same problems with my accord 2001 model. There were problems detected with the transmission before I finished paying off my car loan.
That was a great video.....I am proud owner of a green, paint peelin 4 cyl....great car though! Good stuff!👍
Thanks for watching
She was great! Easy to understand.. not awkward.. and to the point.. I have two of these a coupe and sedan.. love them both, but damn that EGR!!! On my sedan that I just picked up I'm having some crazy pinging at low rpm? Thoughts anyone? I was thinking maybe the EGR? No code other than P1495 VAP leak.
Best car to me
Thanks for watching!
So true, going through all these issues right now
same af
best looking accord
Thanks for watching!
until the paint goes bad. but yah it had really nice body lines
My 1998 accord lx trans was slipping and slamming hard when it did engage.
I got a hand pump (gear oil type) pumped out 3+ quarts and put in new import t-fluid... Shifting fine now!
The old fluid was black and very thin like water. Replace it, before adding any treatments...jmo.
You forgot to include Main Relay, V-Tec solenoid seal, cam seals. Window regulator, window motor, wiper motor.
+Mr. Nobody Thanks for the tip! We'll pass this info along to our production team.
Main relay - occasionaly. vtec seal - every engine they've made, cam seal -don't use too much oil and dog it, window issues - every car with power windows if you use them daily for years.
Ya v-tech solinoid went out on mine when I had one...they break around 120k
Mine got over 200,000 windows perfect
You forgot the rear balancer shaft seal.
Great info! Question. Is the Acura TL the same as the accord with the V-6 engine?
yes, pretty much the same
Sue 👍 watching from India !
Thanks for watching, Sunder!
#6 Right side subframe rusting out from AC line dripping onto subframe which was fixed in the 2003 model year by locating the AC drain line to a new location.
So there's a 1999 honda accord near me for $600 should I buy it
I would
First vid I see and to see a woman tell me what are the problems my car has just did it for me and subscribed.
I just hope that if I have a question on my baby you can answer me and walk me slow and easy thru a repair.thank you.
#6: Sunroof drain leak!!!
Good call. Thank you for checking out the video. If you need auto parts go to: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
You wanna be sure to open the inner slider panel when parked overnight so it can air out the condensation that always collects there - consistent with UV concerns with your interior of course. also helps to crack the driver front & passenger windows sightly with the heater on when driving, preferably set to the "outside airflow" setting. Really pulls out the moisture that collects in these cars on account of their excellent weather sealing.
@@bobbofly when rain leaks down inside from the front pilar it pours over the MICU ("Body Electrical Computer") electronic board and develops oxydation bridges. It only needs a good cleaning if you're lucky. Manifestation will be error codes and erratic functioning.
(04-TL@150KMi)
Damn V6's absolutely murder their mounts in this period of Honda/Acura! Owned an 08 TL and an 06 MDX currently and I've had to replace mounts 3 times between them. Didn't use OE parts on the TL and they only lasted a year max. We're going OE on the MDX....Hopefully they last much longer.
What about the 7th gen accord V6?
We will keep it in mind, Tony! Thanks for watching!
@@1AAuto ,, Can you kindly send some associated problems with the 97 Honda Inspire 5 cylinder engine.
Nice. Soo true. I have a 2000 Honda Accord and I'm here waiting for a tow because it's overheating.
Man I really lucked out with my 00' v6. Whoever owned it always brought it to Honda, it's at 186k and I got it around 176k so I'm doing cabin filters and tires and all high milage matinence and everything I'm replacing is honda stuff with michelin tires so they maintained the car well and were willi ng to spend what was necessary. aside from a throttle body for 130.00 rebuilt I've had to do nothing on the accord. The trans does shift hard if not warmed up but the color and smell were fine just added a Lucas thickener in two installments over like 5k miles and it has seemed to help a lot, especially once driving for a few minutes the car shifts well. Wish I could have found an Acura cl from that era with the manual for a fair price. One of the few Honda products of the gen with a very soild trans.
Which Lucas product did you add?
@@SliceofHamGaming The Lucas trans fix, the fluid is a red color. Put the bottle in over 7kish miles two separate times. Accords at 196k now and still runs great, both engine and transmission.
@@WilliamCooney-l2v okay, thank you so much!
Very good. Please do this for the four cyl. F23 A is 3/4 of all sixth generation cars.
Also has EGR coke issue and idle control valve issues and PCV issues.
Explain the universal #2 intake valve chatter during idle.
VVT valve solenoid failure, weak door lock actuators, climate control panel power loss, and the water pump seizing is what usually breaks the timing belt. Factory recommended Coolant replacement every other year keeps it lubricated and stops seal wear allowing 100,000 miles between changes.
The manual transmission is very reliable, but the standard engine and trans mounts also crack. The tail lights fill with rain water requiring new gaskets siliconed to the housing. ABS brakes have troublesome accumulators.
And the front calipers on all the four-cylinder cars have a tendency to hang up and warp the rotors. The anti vibration rubber seal on the caliper pins requires special silicone grease to keep from swelling and binding the rubber.
The flex coupling on the front exhaust pipe usually goes around 70,000 or seven years as does the sway bar bushings.
Good video👍
Thanks 👍
Yes All 5 motor mounts all had to be replaced.
I got a 1998 v6 accord but what a great 🚗
Спасибо за прекрасное видео! Интересно очень! Всё чётко и по теме! 👍👏🚗. Ucraine 🇺🇦.
Love my Honda Accord V6 but I have literally had every single problem on this list. Replaced Motor mounts, remanufactured Transmission, Bad negative battery wirinig, EGR cleanings.
The only things I haven't had is the windshield issue, probably because I live in Arizona and the paint.
I religiously washed monthly and waxed at least twice a year and never let the car go more than three years without a clean polish.
The battery problem can be solved with the big 3 upgrade.
What's that?

I was just thinking the same thing since I run 2 Rockford fosgate gate t1-12s. I noticed the battery terminals was like that when I was doing my valve cover gasket yesterday. I was like hmm big 3 to fix ground terminal 😂
I can still tell this is from the 90s from it’s melted styling and stuff these have aged very nicely even know this thing is 25 years old
What do you mean Honda will work with you?
Just purchased a 1999 accord with the 2.4, aside from a bad tie rod, and the cruise control working it runs and drives super smooth. It's got 206k on it, just wondering what are some things i should check for/ be wary of?
I changed all my grounds on my Honda engine to pure copper 4ga ofc wire
Wow can you send me a link or where do you get them at?
Awesome! Thank you for checking out the video. If you need auto parts go to: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-Now
Everything, besides the egr and the seal problems, I dealt with. Loved that car but those things weren't kept up by the old owner so when I hit a certain milage, everything was a problem. Transmission, paint, engine mounts.
Love my 6th gen coupe
