That isn't much to go by

Strong smell where?

Do you have a check light on dash &
codes for EVAP System or a fuel
leak somewhere?

All we can do is guess

You can examine your vehicle & find the problem

Yes, it's security chip that the factory installs in your key. You need to contact Honda

i recommend you don't drive to far and get a mechanic too check it out as you risk overheating and blowing the head gasket which is expensive. You need to get the cooling system pressure checked too find the leak and rectify it. hopefully just a hose but possably a water pump.

Could very possibly be the filter itself, sometimes they leak on the seem where it is crimped

EGR valves themselves rarely fail. Many are vacuum operated, and with a honda, it is a mess of vacuum wires underhood. I would have the car checked for vacuum leaks, and what actually controls the vacuum to the EGR valve first. Don't replace unless your certain it is the valve. Might be a cheap fix. ; )

This sounds like a Mass Air Flow sensor problem. Is the check engine light on?

have your water pump checked

sounds like the transmission is slipping

its the lock cylinder the lock tumblers are worn out its no big deal

Did they replace the thermostat? If not sounds like you should check that. Also anytime a engine is overheating it is serious. heat and friction kill engines. Make sure your coolant level and oil level are both good as well.
Thank you,

sounds like your clutch is not engaging all the way

Some rotor buttons have a screw in the side of them,you have to really look to see it.

Check your fuses its probably just a blown fuse ,the tail lights and dash lights are linked through the same fuse.

cam timing out or rotor. good luck.

I am assuming you are talking about the interior rear view mirror and not the side rear view mirror. Most auto parts stores sell an adhesive glue to fix the interior rear view mirror. Most of these mirrors have two parts to them. One part is the bracket that glues to the windshield and the other part is the rear view mirror assembly. Before gluing the bracket to the glass check and see how the mirror assembly attaches to the bracket. There will often be a screw that fixed the two together.

With the power steering quitting immediately, it indicates a broken belt or serious lack of power steeering fluid. If it's fluid, you have a leak allowing it to escape.

The "tapping noise" sounds like it might be the belt flapping around with engine running.
