Question by Nine: I have the “Infamous” honda rust, and was asking if anyone knew approximately how much it would cost to repair?
I have honda rust, which is rust that accumulates on the rear quarter panels under the gas cap. The rust spot is not that big in size but it is deep and i know it will require man power. Im just looking for a rough estimate for anyone whose worked in a body shop or who paid to get rust work done before. Thanks!

Answer by Ryan B
you can do it yourself.. go get some rust preventive spray at autozone (it is kinda soapy clear stuff, it works wonders) anyhow, then buy a small sanding block and various grades of sand paper start with the lower grit, maybe 100 or more depending on how bad it is.. and get some bondo.. sand the spot down with the block, go from maybe 100 up to maybe 400 grit. then use the spray and spray the entire rust area, let it dry, then sipe some bondo on there, they have some premixed in a tube it’s like $ 5 smooth a little more than you know you need, and then sand it off with some high grit sand paper, maybe 600 grit.. get it smooth, then go get the color match paint at autozone or advanced auto will take the better part of a day..

Question by dallas_loco: Which repair and maintenance DIY manual is better for a 2004 Honda Civic?
I know Chilton’s is more expensive than Haynes, $ 30 versus $ 21….Usually the store will have them wrapped so you can’t preview what you are buying. which is better of the too? more info, more details, more pictures, more accurate. This is for my 2004 Honda Civic LX.
Best answer:
Answer by Kenny J
The best would be the factory service manual from the dealer. Chilton/haynes total amount of pages mounts to about less than an inch thick. The service manual just for your year of vehicle is about 2 to 3 inches thick. trust me, you can do alot more with the service manual, which in turn will save you money on doing your own repairs.

Question by who me: My recent 2006 Honda civic repair?
This past August the belt tensioner pivot bolt broke on my 06 Civic, causing it to stall.
The pivot bolt, belt tensioner, water pump pulley and belt all needed to be replaced.
Since then, it seems as though the car doesn’t run as smoothly as it did before the repair.
Has this happened to anyone else?

Answer by Jeremy B
Still under warranty, eh? Take it back and have them look at it again. It might have thrown something else out of whack. If they say everything’s fine and you are sure it isn’t, take it somewhere else. Mechanics don’t always get it right the first (or second) time.

Question by Bobzeechemist: 1996 Honda Accord 4-cylinder Head gasket repair or used engine?
My 96 Honda accord has a blown head gasket, and 215,000 miles. What should it cost to replace, what should I do to know a good job was done, or should I just get a lower mileage used engine?
Best answer:
Answer by teamepler@verizon.net
I would opt for a used engine.
There are some nice engine swaps that work if you want to up-grade to a higher performance level also.
But Honda is not my forta, maybe someone else who sees this will give you some nice idea’s.

Question by cneron: Are BMW dual-purpose bikes more expensive to insure and repair than a Honda street bike?
Best answer:
Answer by Philip P
YES,
more than double the costs of service and repair of any of the major 4 japanese imports.
And they are not as reliable.
Frames are weak and the transmissions lack durability.
don’t be fooled by the long distance hype; yes these bikes made it round the world; but they required a huge amount of support to do so.
