Bonjour! Lol i'm going to Canada soon to visit some fam in a few weeks, and I can't help but wonder....are there any accord goodies that I should keep my eye out for in any parts/auto stores while i'm up there? Perhaps things not available here? Was just curious Smiley

I think it's the other way around Cheesy Canadiens, from what I've seen have a hard time finding good parts at a good price.

Yeah, I see on other accord forums them asking what sites are good to buy OEM Parts from because their dealers charge too much Sad

To the tune of hundreds of $$ difference too. I payed $100 for my TL-S sway bar with brackets to be shipped here from oemacuraparts and the local dealership wanted close to $250 for the same parts... without delivery lol

Just make sure you get some poutine while you're here... that's about the only thing here that you won't get in the US.  Cheesy where in Canada are you visiting? There's lots to see... but nothing worth while buying for someone coming up from the US.

Meh. Everyone hates Americans. The only thing that Canada has that the US doesn't have when it comes to cars is the Acura CSX. It's basically a Civic with Acura badges. That has been replaced with the ILX, which is available in the US and Canada.

As long as your battery is good, you'll be fine. The most I would ever do is keep it on a battery tender while away for a week.

When I was deployed, my car was run every two weeks. No problems.
