What should I focus on going forward?

Was told about timing chain and valve adjustment are the biggest concerns.

I have a 2019 hybrid touring. Other than 19" summer wheels (all season tires) (I keep the stocks with winter tires for NE weather). I haven't done any modification to the suspension. I had a bad experience with my 05 civic, it spun out on me taking one of these turns around ~25-30mph.

I feel like the Accord has a lot of body roll when turning into on ramps. Would a front strut bar help the car feel more stable? Or what else would help?

Hi guys, so yesterday me and my friend were having an argument on which Honda Accord looks the best. Is it the 9.5th gen or the 10th gen, the front end? And he said the 10th gen front looks much better than the 9.5th gen. And I told him, no, the 9.5th gen looks just more appealing and like looks more correct because if you were to look at the 10th gen from a different angle, it just doesn't look as good as the 9.5th gen. In general, 9.5th gen, it looks much better than the 10th gen. I don't know why we’re arguing though, then he brought out the argument that, because 10th gen has a better interior, it means like it is the better looking car. And he was saying the 9.5th gen has an outdated interior, which was not true, which was a coping mechanism that I did not understand. So I would like you guys' opinion. , I know they have posted this kind of thing on here before, but like, this is just for me, just clarify it.

Hi everyone, I posted here about a week ago asking for advice on harness repair. I took my car to the dealership and got harness repair as the solution to multiple dashboard lights and clicking sound on the brakes. They also told me to do some other maintenance stuff. I got a second opinion from a local mechanic. I chose to do the harness repair from the local mechanic after they did a free second opinion and other minor maintenance stuff.

Picked up the car then an hour later we were right back to where we started with the dashboard lights. I took it back to them and they ran another diagnostic and said the ABS has failed and quoted me 3k+ for new ABS & labor.

Now I don’t know what to do. The dealership did offer me $9-10k for trade in multiple times (assuming they offer this to everyone) and I haven’t really explored it. I don’t have car payments and would want to avoid but I also want a reliable car. I’m going to school come January next year and will be driving 1hr+ couple of times a month. We get lots of snow where I am and I just don’t want to be in a position where my car is broken or God forbid not able to brake.

So I didn’t plan on spending 3k on car repairs this year. I’m not sure if I should focus on the repairs or consider trading in.

Looking for advice. Let me know your thoughts. Thank you!

Haven’t posted here in a while but I had a place where I wanted to take pics and it turned out pretty nice

I recently sold my 5.7 v8 jeep and bought a 2019 Honda accord sport with the 1.5t and cvt. Definitely not as good of a powertrain but it’s saving me a lot of money.

I’m into cars, performance stuff, etc. I’m hoping y’all can give advice on what I could do to improve the reliability / longevity of my engine and transmission.

I’m also wondering if anyone has advice on tuning the 1.5t. I know it isn’t the most capable power train, but I’m wondering if anyone knows anything about tuning the 1.5t to get 220-260 horsepower out of it. I would appreciate a meaningful power improvement without negatively impacting longevity / reliability.

Hey everyone,
A lot of users from my previous CarPlay post requested OBD2 support, so after a lot of work, the feature is finally live in Speedometer: Driving Tracker.

You can now see and analyze real-time OBD2 vehicle data directly from CarPlay, iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch (via live activity).

One thing I personally found really interesting while testing was seeing how different driving styles affect engine behavior throughout an entire trip, not just live gauges while driving.

For example, things like:
• Engine Load
• RPM
• Throttle Position
• Coolant & Oil Temperature
• Fuel Usage
• Mass Air Flow
• Intake/Ambient Air Temperature
• And more

I added a sample trip summary screenshot below showing how the app now visualizes engine performance for a drive.

It even works with automatic trip recording through Shortcuts automations (when OBD2 device is connected), so trips can start recording automatically without manually opening the app.

One important note: every car exposes different OBD2 sensors, so some vehicles may not provide all data points shown in the screenshot.

The goal wasn’t just to make another OBD2 gauge app, but to make driving history and car data feel more visual, insightful, and actually enjoyable to revisit later.

Other existing features in the app:
• CarPlay trip tracking
• 3D route playback
• Speed-colored trip replay
• Video recording with speed + map overlays
• Fuel, maintenance, and expense tracking
• Vehicle-based analytics & comparisons
• iCloud sync across Apple devices
• Privacy-first experience (no ads/tracking/signups)

Now it’s becoming one of the most comprehensive driving tracker apps available on any platform, whether iOS or Android! (iOS version is live, Android version is in progress)

Would genuinely love feedback from fellow car enthusiasts on what data, analytics, or visualizations you’d like to see next.

Trying to get a gas saver 😅

Took this out about 6 months ago (bought it in June 2025) and after a while I finally noticed that my ac makes a slight squeaky noise when the fan is turned 3 notches or more. I’ve heard some hondas can have weak AC’s but I think mines would benefit from a replacement.

Making a To-Do List with my 9th Gen and was wondering if anyone here has replace their blower motor and has had a noticeable difference afterwards in performance.
