On a closed course or the Autobahn, right?...I get her over 100 regularly.
Mexico.On a closed course or the Autobahn, right?
in first time I used very soft material with bad adhesive and after two weeks it fall down. So I used more harder material, foam tape size (1 In x 3/4 In) and 3M Heavy Duty Adhesive. and that work very well, after one year ago still fixed.Could you please tell me what you used and any specifics of location and installation tips?
My fix with three stacks of foam pads placed statically above the weatherstripping at the back of the hood, near the windshield, has pretty much resolved the issue for me. I don't notice any fluttering anymore. Seems Honda could address the issue if they wanted to throw a few engineers at coming up with a simple fix.

Hi. I have 2018 Honda Accord Ex-l. My 4th accord. I noticed at highway speeds mine doing the same thing. I went under the hood and the foam heat shield attached to hood clamps needed pushed on more. I feel like the air comes thru the grille and if the felt isn’t flush it moves. I suggest which I did was run electrical tape across the front part of the felt with half on metal hood. It will help the hood vibration by sealing off the air.We just returned from a 1,500 mile round trip over the holidays. Our 2018 Accord EXL, 1.5L has noticeable hood flutter at highway speeds. By that I would describe it as a flexing up and down of the hood. Have others noticed this condition on the open road?
This is our 6th new Accord and don't recall this on prior generations.
