    Acclerator Vibration!!

    Hey Guys,

    Just bought a New Honda Accord Euro.

    I've realised that i get some sort of vibration from the acclerator, but its not constant. Only happen when the car is at hault, and as i acclerate the vibration occurs.

    Also when i turn on the A/C i could feel vibration which is very noticable.

    Could someone please tell me if this is only for my car, or others have the same issue, and what needs to be done to re-solve the issue. Thanks

    wrong section, bring back to the DEALERSHIP which you bought the NEW car and get them to correct the problem, no use coming here if you've bought a brand spanking new car with 3 years warranty.

    oh and if you do follow my advice you'll probably be confronted with the following statement from a technician: Test driven no fault found haha life's tough -> just hassle the SA about it.

    Accleration Vibration

    I already went to the Dealer....and they couldnt find any fault with the car.

    Thats the reason i have used OzHonda to see if anyone has had a similar problem like this, so i know i'm not the only one with this unusual problem.

    I'm pretty sure that there is a way to fix it, but dont know how.

    Need help, NOT ADVISE!

    But it's a brand new car. Don't be a pushover. You just spent the money with them. Also, for warranty reasons you must take the car to them. I'd kick and scream until it was fixed. You paid good money for it. Get good service. You don't have to accept their word for it. There are over 100 Honda dealers in the country. Take it to another one. Despite what some sales people say, you can take your car to any dealer without risk of losing warranty.

    Moving to the Accord Euro section.

    You can use synthetic oils. You can use 5w-30 or 0w-30. It is the 2nd number that has to be thick enough. So make sure the minimum is "30" and the maximum is "40" (unless you are burning oil)

    BTW, shell helix plus is a 15w-50 if I recall correctly. That is a NO-NO for the Euro. Magnatec is 10w-40, which is ok. What about the Mobil1 extended performance? Is that the silver bottled 5w-50 or the gold bottled 10w-30?

    Yeah I got little vibration on accelerator occassionally when the car starts moving slowly from complete stop. It is very noticeable when the aircon is on...but that's just on occassion.

    Next time when you feel that vibration again, check to see if your radiation or aircon fan is on....

    As Aaronng says 5W30 or 5W40 either full or semi synthetic.Personally i use full synthetic so my car can go the full 10k or 6 mths without risk of the oil breaking down.
