Newbie. 2008 Accord Coupe LX-S with questions
Hello Honda Forums,
Newbie here from Vermont. Just aquired a very nice silver 2008 Accord Coupe LX-S with the 2.4 four banger and 5-speed tranny. I love the car, it's my second Accord, my first was a Green 89 LXI Coupe. Interesting thing is, this car and my 89 were both sold from the same dealer in Poway CA. I bought my first one brand new there, and the latest I purchased here in Vermont, it's a 1 owner car and left California eight months ago. So a couple of questions for you Accord experts: 1. One thing I don't like is how the engine stays at high RPMs between shifts making smooth shifting more difficult (especially for my 15 year old son in training). Is there a fix for this? 2. The drivers seat is sort of loose, it wiggles during driving. 3. I would like to add some power, suggestions would be great. Thanks in advance! Mike |
1 .Check your IAC and adjust if needed.
2 .sounds like maybe the seat bolts may be loose. 3. Cold air intake and low restriction exhaust. |
IAC. I assume that means Idle Air Control. The car idles perfectly.
Would adjusting the control make a difference in how long the engine stays at high rpms between shifts? THanks |
If the idle when stationary is perfect than I can only say check for codes first and maybe a vaccum leak. What RPM does it idle at?
