Honda Navigation DVD Downloads. Many visitors ask us if it is possible to download torrent or hacked versions of the Honda Accord GPS update. The answer to this question is “no”, and we would advise that you never attempt to do this. This is because you won’t have your own unique HERE code for the system update so would never be able to. Feb 07, 2014  I use it now and then. But Waze on my Samseng S3 is much better in term of the map. As mentioned by few, the search function is rarely useful when trying to find an address and the map is outdated. The SC advisor said, feel free to get the maps elsewhere, they don't know how to update it and there is no update pushed by Honda for now.

Features

Jan 08, 2016  I was at the dealership service center today and when the service guy entered my VIN in their system there was a notice that there is a new software update. It was just released today! I didn't have time to update mine but you guys can call the dealership and get the system updated! Hopefully this resolves the several of the bugs!

2008 Honda Accord (Page 1 of 10)

CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2008 Honda Accord has several serious defects: poor brakes, excessive oil consumption, & uncomfortable seats.

BRAKES: There was a class action lawsuit against Honda in 2010 for premature & excessive brake wear. See our page on Honda's brake problems for more info.

OIL CONSUMPTION: Honda issued a TSB about this in late 2011, claiming it could be fixed through a software update to the VCM (variable cylinder management). There are class action lawsuits pending. See our page about the Accord oil consumption.

UNCOMFORTABLE SEATS: Owners have consistently reported uncomfortable seats with the entire 8th generation (2008-2012) of Honda Accords. Complaints range from back pain to leg circulation problems due to bad lumbar support, cushioning, & seat angle. Complaints aren't limited to only a certain body type -- the seat comfort problems are from a wide spectrum of owner height & weight. The common theme we hear is 'we never noticed this during the test drive.' Unfortunately for unwary buyers, the seat pain is noticeable after 15-20 minutes.

Accord

• 128,000 miles

At 90,000 car shook and was misfiring. Codes pulled were P301 and 304. Spark plugs 1-4 were replaced free of charge due to Honda service bulletin 13-078 which extended the warranty to 8 years on engine misfires. My complaint is that the pistons and the piston rings were not inspected at that time. Why not' who knows what condition they were in' the car was returned to us with spark plugs as band-aids! it happened again at 103,000 miles (which we paid for) and now at 128,000 the dealership says we need a complete lower engine rebuild to replace pistons 1-3. of course as a 2008, even though low miles, it's outside of warranty. I thought in buying an Accord, I could drive it for at least 150,000- at least! I would like the warranty further extended, or at least for american Honda Corp to pay for half of the repairs as it's only 3,000 miles outside of the original service bulletin extended warranty of 125,000. If Honda acknowledged something was wrong with this particular V6 vtec engine, why does the warranty expire' shouldn't there be a grace period or a compromise? we are getting punished for caring for our car and having low miles on it. Many folks benefitted from the extended warranty because their cars failed within the 8 year time frame because they had high miles- higher than ours! what about those 08 Accord that are still failing outside of the 8 year mark that have lower miles than the ones Honda covered under warranty??? C'mon american Honda, take care of all your customers! I have purchased 6 Honda in my lifetime and am a loyal customer at my local Honda service center with an extensive service history. On this car alone I've purchased new brakes, new starter, new alternator, drive train belts, water pump, new vtec spool valves, vtec solenoid, and every service as recommended by- at the dealership- and my Accord only lasted 128,000? how'

My vehicle's piston rings are damaged and my vehicle is burning oil. I noticed that after checking my oil one day that there was no oil on my dip stick. I had just recently gotten an oil change less than 2 weeks ago. I check my fluid levels frequently due to I just purchased this vehicle about 3 months ago. I took it back to walmart where I had the oil change done at and they performed another oil change and replaced the oil filter, where I was able to watch them do the entire process. About a week and a half goes by and I went to check the fluid level and again the dip stick was bare. There is no indication of any oil leaking underneath the vehicle, nor is there any oil present on the ground underneath the vehicle after sitting overnight. There is no white smoke coming out of anywhere, no oil burning smell, absolutely nothing visible to see what might be going on with the vehicle. I took it to a mechanic that is in town where they did a thorough examination of the vehicle and stated that the oil burning is being caused by the piston rings. They are in their opinion faulty piston rings that have developed an abnormal amount of deb-re on them and they need to be replaced. I feel this is something that should be in the recall list due to this vehicle only has 104,123 miles on it and the pistons should not have to be replaced.

Vtc (variable timing control) actuator, horrible grinding noise at start up and I do know that Honda is aware of this and has had many many complaints. That has got to be a ¿lemon law¿ issue and I believe it needs to be fixed promptly. On a cold start, is when it makes the terrible noise. If it's driven for a while and then started up again, it is a 50/50 chance that it will make the noise again.

The vehicle has good compression, but a strange noise is coming from the engine. It is also losing oil while leaving no oil markings. The vehicle has never missed an oil change, and was getting one when the mechanics said that the noise meant that the engine had problems. Multiple mechanics have told us to replace the V6 engine. The tire rods also need to be replaced, and the tsm light never goes off

Honda recall. My car for some reason was covered under the power transmission recall even though my car is experiencing the same problem and codes other 2008 Honda Accord were the same year. My oil is going faster then I can put it in. It doesn't last a whole month. I have no oil leaks in my car at all what so ever. Its damaging my engine because I had no clue it was burning the oil that fast. It's not fair they only cover some 2008 Honda Accord. When they already were sued because if it.

The check engine light kept coming up with the maintenance light and the oil level kept dropping.I took it to autozone and I got these coded P3497 and P3400. I did a research myself and found out that there was a recall on this issue as stated in Honda's bulletin 11-033.the recall covers all Accord from 2008-2010 which mine is included. I called Accord to notify them about these but after they looked up the VIN, I was told my car wasn't included. Honda's bulletin says all 2008-2010 V6 Accord so why is my car exempted? please kindly look into these issue. Thank you.

My car makes this rattling sound when I first start the car. I brought it into my Honda dealership to have it looked and they said it is a known issue related to other Honda Accord but Honda won't cover the cost to have it repaired. They gave me an estimate of $480 to have fixed. I've searched online and found that many Honda Accord owners have also faced this issue with the rattling sound. If it is a known defect and saftey issue, why hasn't Honda issued a recall to fix it?
