Yes, has the IMA light come on yet? In my experience that led us to having to purchase the new hybrid battery.

The negative number means the car should have had it's oil changed that many miles ago. Oil life starts at 100% for new oil & counts down every 10%. At 15% the display will always show, which means it's near time to change the oil.

1. Turn ignition to the "ON" position. (do not start engine)
2. Press SEL/RESET repeatedly until the oil life indicator is displayed.

eps system is very hard

I have an '06 Honda Civic. The most common places where the code is found is on the left side of the glove box, in the trunk somewhere along the gasket or underneath where the speakers are, under the fuse box panel, under the ashtray and sometimes under center console lid. I happen to find my in the left side of the glove compartment. The first five digits are the code and under that, you should see and 11 digit code which is your radio serial. So once you have the code if you haven't already, turn on the radio. It will ask you for the code and you punch it in using the number on the buttons you use to change your radio stations. As you punch in numbers "CODE" will start to fill in. Just like the asterisks used in passwords. If you punch it incorrectly, it will say "error 1" or something to that effect. Do not push anything else, just start over by punch in the first number of the code and then the rest. Be careful, if you attempt too many times, the radio will lock itself and you will need to leave the radio on for an hour for it to reset itself. When successful done, the radio will turn back on to the last station you were last on. Hope that helps.

is the gas motor shutting off when you drive? it sounds like you are driving on the gas motor alone

go to your honda dealer only

There is a special tool to press the rear brake caliper back in on you vehicle. You can "borrow" it from Auto Zone or Advance Auto Parts. Basically because of the parking brake, you have to press the caliper back in and at the same time screw it in. I know that might sound confussing but when you see the tool they will loan you, it will make sense. It's pretty easy to do with the right tools. I have however taken the hard route before and used a C clamp and pair of needle nose to get it worked out. Hope this helps. Thanks for rating my response and for using FixYa!

Remove the wheel and the brake caliper/bracket assembly. Remove the center bolt from the hub assembly and pull the hub assembly off. Install in reverse order making sure the hub nut is torqued properly

have you had the OBD codes read ? if the knock sensor is faulty follow this link to a honda owners forum which should help

Crankshaft position sensor. It indicates your timing is off. Have you recently done some work on your engine or more specifically the distributor?

under the steering wheel, below the dash

Hi the radio code is different for every car. If you go to the honda dealer they will ask you for proof
of ownership and then supply you with the code for your car ( usually a small fee )
I hope this will help you.

What sensor is that?, can you give me the trouble code and I will try to help you.

Yes. The computer has no way of knowing if any services it recommends are actually done.
