What did you do to your Gen7 today?

[CrackerTeg]

I'm just messing with ya man. I know it's flat rate and a good tech can get paid for 80 hours in a 40 hour week. I can't blame the guy too much but leaving shit loose is unacceptable.

looser than Nelson's ass on Duval St in Key West.

Eat shit, Z!

Replaced PS LCA bushings (pita), replaced front rotors and pads, repainted front calipers, painted and replaced DS rear caliper, oil and filter change and drain and replaced about 2 bottles of brake fluid. I attempted to replace the DS LCA pushings again after soaking that seized bolt in pb blaster since last night and failed. Time to order a replacement bolt and cut that shit out. Also found that the PS rear caliper needs to be replace along with the lower ball joints. This time I'm replacing the knuckle. I'm tired of hammering things out.  Plus the knuckle will have new bearings also.

Sound deadening on the entire floor. 
Changed carpet color.

Painted my rear lip.

Today I went outside to mess with my fogs because i'm an impatient asshole, and I thought if I could get one screw to secure each one i'll be alright.  Of course I didn't take the bumper off, I can get it off on my own but I need 2 people to get it back on. It's so warped one person has to push on it while the other screws the side, needless to say all I managed to accomplish was a pair of dirty hands and more frustration. Lol done with this for now..

 

So close...yet so far away...

Sup guys,

Haven't been on here in a while. Glad to see the site is still active and well.

And today, my transmission went out on my 05 Accord. 203,500 miles and it's completely gone.

Now I have to decide if I should replace it, have it rebuilt, or buy a new one. Hmmm...

Buy new! I've been there and regret not doing it. Junk yard tranny was $1400 including labor when I wad looking. Rebuild about $3400, and new from Honda installed was just over 4k. I went rebuild because its what the warranty I had paid for. It's been back three times. a buddy that went they junk yard route last year just had his go again. If you go used Paul once told me to look for an oddsey or pilot trans as they are less likely to be abused.

Hey Mike,

Thanks for the info. I'm going to start looking into it today as soon as I get a chance to call local dealerships / junk yards / transmission repair places. I also found that the 05 has a recall on the transmission for some reason so maybe I'll get lucky on that, but probably not.

I like the idea of buying a new one or a rebuilt, so I could get a warranty with it. I'm just not sure if it would be worth the money. We'll see what today holds. Thanks again.

Checked the compression yesterday.

[Mike]

Checked the compression yesterday.

and?

[timot_one]

It seems okay, but isn't awesome. There's no more and a 5 psi difference between each cylinder and total difference isn't more than 15 psi. Not ideal, but I have a feeling that the leak down test will tell me a lot more.

[Rich01]

Drove it to work and was pleased with how much better the car feels with only one side of the bushings replaced.
