Yeah my brakes sucked too, to the point where the brake shoe fell off last Friday!! Oops! But I had all the parts in my car ready to do the brake job, and lemme tell you new rotors, pads, brake lines and fluid make a helluva difference for this bad boy. I mean you can approach a stop light @ 60 mph and stop like it's nothing, no skidding, no startling sounds. Of course when I do that I get scared that the brakes might go out and I hit something so I save that for emergency braking now!
Butif you don't like your Accord you can alway ssell it and get a better car. But the suggestions I saw listed here, I think you should do those as well and rev that baby up and let it know who's the boss every once in a while, @ least once a week. Be responsible but have fun @ the same time...life is too short to live driving in the right lane only.
Do you honestly think its healthy to open her up every now and then---rev her to redline every so often? I have heard this theory, but thought it to be an old wives tale...I dont believe the car has been over 70 for any length of time....is it healthy to open it up every now and then----honest?
