    I love this! Keep doing the Honda vids! I'd be interested in seeing a vid on flushing transmission fluid.

    I had done everything u had done in the other video and I never would’ve thought it to be the thermostat but I guess u answered that question for me. Have to try it tomorrow. Thanks

    Great job. Just did mine with your help

    Just got done with (actually haven't bled yet), you made it look super easy. It's not exactly hard but i struggled both getting the hose off and taking out the bottom bolt. Hopefully this clears my code out.

      My coupler just refused to come off no matter how hard I pulled and wiggled it. I ended up breaking the damn thing.

    Did you reconnect the square clip?

    Hey bro I think your videos are dope! I have a 03 Honda Accord with overheating problems and I’m going to be changing my axles on her soon. I genuinely want to start upgrading my engine and stuff. If you have any idea on what upgrades are necessary to make her faster I’d appreciate it. I’ve already pretty much rebuilt the suspension

      We don't have any performance upgrades on it either, but maybe in a future video we'll throw a turbo on it

    man my housing unit is not like this in my 2003 accord, I have one bolt that is on the opposite side and I have no room to maneuver the bolt out, that’s all I need out

    What does it do when the thermostat messes up? I think mine is stuck open or closed and is overheating the car.

    • @VeryGoodGarage
      @VeryGoodGarage  Před rokem

      If it's stuck closed, then coolant isn't going to the radiator and the engine will overheat. If it's stuck open, then coolant will flow through the radiator even when cold, causing the car to take longer to warm up to temps

    Does the thermostat have a number on it for replacement?

    • @VeryGoodGarage
      @VeryGoodGarage  Před 4 měsíci

      Indeed we do! All parts we use we have in the description.

    Yeah no the coupler between the thermostat and the hose doesn't like to come off, you got really lucky. And don't break it because it's a dealer-only item for around 33 bucks for a piece of plastic.

    Is it the same process for an acura rsx. My fans are not coming on.

    • @VeryGoodGarage
      @VeryGoodGarage  Před 2 lety

      Sadly we don't have one of those so we could tell

    I wish it was that easy on the 2003, 2000cc model. You have no access to the thing. You see nothing. I'll try from under the car with the guard off.

    • @VeryGoodGarage
      @VeryGoodGarage  Před 3 lety

      2000cc wow, that's like the opposite end of the spectrum in power than mine
