I have rotors with well over 200k on them. Our odyssey which supposedly has bad brakes, had rotors so fine that I pad slapped and at 120k run like new. I don’t race to red lights or do other stupid things that go against physics, so I tend to get tires and brakes to last much longer than...

OE rotors are $91 each. Junk are $16. “Better” like Brembo are $40 each, or Bosch for $30 each. Rock auto has too many to choose.

The alloy wheels cover things up pretty significantly. The rotor wear pattern has existed a long time. I flagged it on here in fact long ago but it was noted that the rears on a hybrid don’t get used much. I let it slide. It may well have been an issue 50k ago, but there was just more pad...

I guess he’s more folksy, but no Gordon Lightfoot?

I was rotating tires and doing a brake fluid flush on my 2015 Accord Hybrid today. It has 112k miles. All original brake components. All silent and everything works great. FWIW haven’t touched anything besides brake fluid flushes. Rotors don’t get swept much especially the rears, but it’s...

Go back and look at some of the things @MolaKule wrote on the topic. ATF isn’t great in all attributes but it works well for many. There also used to at least be ATF that had higher levels of adds for use in an MT.

My E30 BMW 318i specified that too. Ultimately I went to Amsoil ATF-range MTL and it was great. Redline would lose shift feel after a while. https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/successes-with-amsoil-mtf.83270/ OP, Molakule has a good overview used in many threads...

But those have a standpipe in them and a specific fluid level setting protocol.

I can see it being a big help on highway drives over long distances.

I went with Fuchs from FCP for my AFF in my 08. Make sure you have the right stuff to do the AT service. Amsoil SVG in the bags for the diffs.

Wow, awesome! That’s a nice looking car!!

Not exactly the same, but on my old mechanical odometers on my old MB cars, sometimes the speedometer needles get jumpy at low speed, and it’s attributable to a metal bushing where the cable attaches. I used slip 2000 gun oil which is supposed to not gum or gunk up. Not sure you’d use it...

Most, probably 95% or higher. I do a lot of highway driving. Even without that, the mikes engine off are usually just braking or short spurts of flat land. The battery doesn’t get you far but in the best of conditions, as it isn’t a phev.

Not sure about the confusion over having 300 hp. That answer is simple. Nobody needs more than 72 hp. So don’t drive like an idiot and slam the engine when you know it’s cold. If you know you’re going to load it heavily fairly soon, figure out how to get it to turn on (eg run the heat or...

I don’t mind the 14k for the hybrid. But 28k to me is a bit much, so I just change it each time. That’s how I do it too. Like $6-7. The odyssey that only goes 5k or so per oci per the computer gets a fancier Fram (now who knows) and two OCIs always with matched oil. lol for the hybrid given...

Nope. Standard for my accord hybrid. 111k on the clock and like brand new.

2014 Accord hybrid 2.0, a little over 14k miles oci.
