Re: I have 203 Honda accord EX v4. it reached 80000...
I think a lot Honda's require the timing belt to be changed around 80,000 to 100,000 miles. This something that you should not ignore, if the belt breaks the valves will hit the pistons and cause major damage.

While driving and with radio off, listen to the noise. Find a road that is clear on which you can drive without any traffic. Drive at a constant speed and make light shifts to the left and right, by doing this, the weight of the vehicle will shift to the apposite side of the steering wheel to which you turn.
When you turn to the left, the weight goes to the right (passenger side) wheel, if the noise stops, you may have a bad wheel bearing.
When you turn to the right, the weight goes to the left (driver side), if the noise stops, you may have a bad wheel bearing.
If the noise does NOT go away, then you may have bad CV's.
Another way to check is by lifting and securing in jack stands. Vehicle in neutral and with your hands, rotate wheel with one hand. Other hand place on suspension component. Spring of strut. If you feel slight vibration, you may have a bad wheel bearing.
With vehicle on jack stands, one hand on top of wheel and other on bottom, try to see if you can move the wheel in and out which may be a had CV.
You must drop the tank to change the fuel pump. There is an access panel, but not big enough to remove the fuel pump. To do that, you must cut/enlarge that hole.
Hope this is helpfull
D light flashing means that there is something wrong with the automatic transmission, have the vehicle scanned to understand the origin of the failure. Car losing power is consistent with a transmission that fails to change to lower gears, but has nothing to do with failure to start, that i can think of. Remember that 1998/2002 Accord auto transmissions are notoriously weak, and rarely reach 80000 miles.
Check oil or Change oil??? If it says check oil , check the oil level ASAP If its a Maintenace light/ Change oil.do this. Hold in the trip odometer button in, now keep holding it it while you turn key on( dont start engine) it should count down dashes intil the light goes off, now release the button.
The wrench on your dash board means that maintenace is required. if your oil is at 15% it is time for an oil change and the tech that changes your oil will reset the light.
The initial interval will be 90K. It is a good rule of thumb to inspect the belt when it reaches 80k, for possible premature damage to the teeth of the belt. Check for cracks on the outer side of the belt, as well.
is it manual or automatic. If automatic bands might need adjustment. If manual maybe the clutch disc is not good does she smell like if something is burning when car is running
