YMMV, but here's the Honda Accord V6 block heater accessory instruction sheet - https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/pubs/AI/AII24385.pdf There is high parts interchangeability between the Honda J30 and J32 engines. (eg I had headers on my 2001 Acura 3.2CL Type S that had combo install...

Okay, so it's not just me! The last jug of SuperTech washer fluid I got smelled strongly of sulfur/rotten eggs.

Did Fram remove the metal screen dome from the TGs?

I don't know if anyone else watched this, but Project Farm tests out a can of 1950's (SB/SC?) era Quaker State against a modern SN formulation. https://youtu.be/-zHlxeu_yuM I wouldn't be surprised if it was a BITOG member that sent him the vintage QS can in that crazy intricate package.

I was actually very impressed how efficiently my local Acura dealer handled the recalls on our two vehicles. I'm sure it was nuttier earlier in the campaign. At least in January, there were tall stacks of airbag boxes with customer names written on them in piles that must have been grouped by...

Congrats on the new Forester. We are also enjoying our first Subaru way more than I thought we would.

Oh, forgot to mention gasket and ADV were in great shape and pliable. Only issue is the pesky pleat by the seam.

Just wrapped up an oil change on the wife's Acura RDX this long weekend and pulled off this Advance Auto Parts Protection Plus Totalgrip AA7317 filter. Total service time was 6 months, 5,032 miles on Valvoline Maxlife 0W-20, with OLM reading 30%. This red guy was picked up a long time ago...

This sounds a little crazy, but I keep a Honda OEM cup wrench on hand just to remove the factory filter. My other cup wrenches can't quite get a grip on the flutes or shiny finish and spin or slip off. I don't know who's putting these on so darn tight on the line, but our last four Hondas have...

We're using a Roku 2 XS, not a 3, in a guest room and it seems to work pretty well with the Roku Media Player application - http://www.rokuguide.com/channels/roku-media-player It connects to our TVersity server as well as a simple DLNA-enabled DLink NAS. You might be able to use a media server...

Here's the PureOne from the latest oil change on my in-law's 2000 Toyota Camry V6. This is a very low mileage city vehicle with only 44,600 on the odo. Given this vintage 1MZ-FE's reputation, I perform annual oil changes regardless of mileage. This filter was installed Labor Day 2013 and run an...

South of the Border, apparently.

According to this article I saved from Honda's odometer settlement, http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/money/autos/2007-02-19-odometer-usat_x.htm - Quote: The Society of Automotive Engineers' voluntary standard is plus or minus 4%, or no more than 4 miles high or low in every 100 miles.

This was posted over on Reddit's CarTalk forum, thought I'd share it with you guys since I've never seen a filter balloon like this before. Originally Posted By: yehyatt Few months ago, my engine started spitting a small drop of oil right after cranking it, I thought it was the head gasket, but...

There's Acura. 4 year 50k bumper to bumper, 6 year 70k for the drivetrain. TL, RDX and ILX are assembled in Ohio/Indiana. MDX's come from over the Northern border.

That looks great! I hope ours looks as good when the times comes to replace the valve cover gasket.

Had these on our MDX and they were really wonderful. Fit great and went up high enough on the sides that snow/slush/salt/mud was never a problem. Light grey carpets looked like new when we got rid of her.

Great pics and clean ride...
