Q: There is a recall on 2013-2016 Honda Accord for Charging System Problems. Take your car to the nearest Honda dealer ASAP. I had to

Well, they could, but only to a small amount. If you go and put the whole synthetic, it would have a little bit less friction, but not all that much.

Hi there. There are multiple reasons why a car can have issues sputtering, running smooth, and eventually shutting off. The most common include vacuum leaks, bad fuel sensors, dirty fuel injection nozzles, worn out air filters, damaged spark plugs, and...

You may have to have the whole steering column replaced (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/steering-column-replacement) including the steering wheel. The reason you will need to do this is your steering may be off quite a bit and it is probably not safe for you...

Hello. The code P0108 (https://www.yourmechanic.com/article/-p0108-obd-ii-trouble-code-manifold-air-pressure-map-barometric-pressure-sensor-circuit-high-voltage-input-problem-by-john-nelson) means the manifold absolute pressure (MAP) circuit is detecting a high input voltage. The PCM and MAP sensor communicate through a 5 volt wire that changes voltages as the sensor's reading changes. When the sensor...

Hi there. Assuming, you have reinstalled the original PCM (powertrain control module) and still won't start, circuit tests for the crankshaft position sensor need to be performed. A poor connection or broken wire (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/electric-problems-inspection) could be the cause for the...

Hello, thank you for writing in. The suspension and tires are so closely related that an issue with your tie rods would feel like a tire problem. The technician is correct about this would cause a vibration (https://www.yourmechanic.com/services/car-is-shaking-or-vibrating-inspection). Did they...

Hello, thank you for writing in. With the new module you installed, there is likely some other issue with an input to the computer. Either that or the computer itself is having issues. You can only test the computer by...

Hello there. When a vehicle will not start, it is usually due to a lack of the correct air / fuel mixture or the inability to ignite the fuel inside the combustion chamber at the correct time. Although the fuel...

If there is adequate oil but oil pressure is low, that means either the oil pump is not working, there is a blockage, the oil pressure warning light is malfunctioning, or there is lots of wear in the engine bearings....
