I encourage you not to give up on the late model Accord. When mended, it is a beautiful car to drive. I never had a Honda before and picked up my first one a month ago (mainly as a challenge to fix its rev hang) at auction for less than $16K with GPS and 50K km (also with hardly any thread on tyres and 2 days of rego left). I can imagine that previous owner got tired of the rev hang and decided to dispose of the car. His loss was my gain .

I love the car and revving the VTEC to 7 grand for a snappy upchange. I made a minor mod to the traction control (or VSA - Vehicle Stability Assist) to disable it automatically on each take off and re-engage at 30 km/hr. to avoid the horrible bogging-down feeling at speedy take offs. The VSA was far too aggressive, cutting down power at first sign of traction problems, well before any wheel spin.
How exactly did you fix the issue?
