New to the Forum...Quick Question
Published (2009-12-13 14:14:00)
Welcome, BlauKasten. Keyless entry was standard on the '06 EX and EX-P. So either the sellers failed to give you the remotes, or it's an LX.

Welcome to the club and fill out your profile so we can help you better as to where your at ect. As to the viboration it could be a lot of thing like a bad CV joint. Aftermarket rims. The worn tire being out of round. Does it shake the steering wheel slightly at that speed or are you just feeling the viboratons. If you have a automatic it could be a tourque converter. Hard to say without seeing the car. __________________ Floor mats and full...

In order to bleed the system follow these easy steps. 1. Fill the resevoir to the max level. 2. Fill the radiator to the top. 3. Start the engine with the heater on but the fan off. 4. Let the engine come to full operating temp. 5. You will notice that the radiator level has gone down so turn the engine off and simply repeat the entire process as many times as needed until the radiator level remains full.

Yeah...Luck of the draw. My E is my first Honda. I bought new and I have done what I feel is excessive repairs for Honda's supposed quality. But to jump to Toyota thinking their better....... I caught the 3 liter slugging engine and the 3.5 liter VVT-i oil tube bursting. You think mopping up 5 quarts of oil all around the engine, undercarriage, and down the street is fun? And Toyota parts are outrageously expensive. Give me a Honda/Acura...

Your profile says you own an '08, wouldn't that be covered under warranty?

upper strut mount bearings
I just replaced both of mine (and the strut assemblies)
When they replaced them the first time the new bearings were binding and not allowing the struts to move as they need. Sounded exactly as you described. Turns out it's a know issue with some of the replacements, and they have no way of knowing until they are installed...go figure
They may only need some ...

Thanks for the reply. I have ruled out fuses and have isolated the contacts on the relay socket as per the advice recieved here. I was unable to test the relay but did attempt to jumper the constant power and motor sockets. After jumpering these two should I expect the blower to run? I tried powering on the ignition switch and turning up the blower control but nothing happened. Well nothing ...

One way or another, you've got to read the code. Until then it's all just useless conjecture.
Generic codes should be easy to find a decoder for. Here are Honda-specific codes:
P1106 Barometric pressure circuit range/performance
P1107 Barometric pressure circuit low input
P1108 Barometric pressure circuit high input
P1121 Throttle position lower than expected
P1122 Throttle position ...

Have you put on aftermarket seat covers?
If not then you won't find the answer in this post.
I basically had the straps for the seat covers clamping down on the seat belts.
It was a duh moment when I pulled the seat forward and saw the straps binding the seat belts.
