  1. Wheels, Suspension & Brakes
    I need to change the brake fluid on our 2018 Honda Accord Hybrid Touring. The Maintenance Minder has been pestering me about that for the last month. In scanning the forums here, someone noted that the procedure for performing this task on an Accord Hybrid is somewhat different that on a...
  2. Fluid Dynamics
    The old 2013 just hit 100K and I was going to bleed out my old brake fluid, change the coolant and CVT fluid while I had it up. Has anyone used Bosch ESI6 brake fluid? It is a DOT5.1 which should be fine as Dot 4 is also OK in our brake systems. From what I understand 5.1 with the higher...
  3. Problems & Solutions
    Hopefully you guys are having a better week than I am. I failed state inspection due to a caliper hanging up. R-R one to be specific. So, after not wanting to spend $650 for them to replace it. I picked up the caliper and new pads for ~$100 and replaced it, and bled it the two man way. Now, I...
  4. Accord Hybrid 9th Gen
    Hi all.. Here's the history. On my '14 HAH, both rear calipers leaked, and the system -- I'm guessing-- ran dry after i frustratedly pumped them into submission. I topped up the brake fluid and limped home. All was well for a few kms until it said "low brake fluid" again. So I got home...
  5. Wheels, Suspension & Brakes
    Longtime owner, first-time driveaccord Q: I just had brakes replaced on 05 Accord 2.4 EX at dealer, car was pulling to the right on drive home. Brought car back and was told there was a nail in tire - they fixed it. Then, when changing air cleaner filter (1st time!!!) a day later, I noticed...
  6. Wheels, Suspension & Brakes
    I've had my 2015 EX-L V6 sedan for about a year and half and decided it was time to upgrade the braking system. Through that time the brakes were serviceable but I developed a small, but annoying, vibration when applying the brakes on the interstate. In short, it was time to refresh the whole...
  7. Maintenance & Detailing
    Want to bleed your brakes but don't have another person to help? Recently I found myself in that situation. The solution I used was this fantastic tool, which allows true one-person bleeding. It has three awesome ideas in one: silicone rubber hose so it stays on the bleeder screw (no clamp...
  8. Wheels, Suspension & Brakes
    In talking with a friend who also owns a 7th gen Accord, we got on the topic of brakes. He hasn't done any service to the brakes other than a brake fluid replacement at 40k. He now has just over 100k and I am advising him to have them done by the dealer, for safety's sake. I mean it's been about...
  9. The Early Generations
    I am curios to know if Master Cylinder failures are common on these Accords? I bleed my brakes the other day and the pedal will not "firm-up" when I turn the car on. I highly suspect it is the MC.
