Dont know if this is of any use to you but i own a 2005 accord (uk impoted to ireland) with 108500k mls on the reader , high enough i spose , but i did a bit of research on this year and model of car and found out that the chain does give problems with the earlier model , ie 2004 and 2005 models , i rang honda uk and honda Ireland here and found out a few things you can get your timing chain , oil pump chain , tensioner, gears on the cams and crank shaft and all 4 injectors replaced as some sort of a recall/ warrenty/ pan european/ upgrade that honda did for this car but there are several things that must comply like it must have less than 125,000 k Mls on the clock and have a full Honda service record up to date and they will do it all for free, I just got mine done as it was rattling all the time , only thing was i had to pay for labour and new oil as my record was not a Honda Service record but did have a full service history, also there is a recall on the headlights upgrade as in the form of putting some clips on the headlights , again all warrenty and free of charge , I have a terrible wobble in the steering wheel which also runs into the body of the car and my buttt too , seems like my inner cv is gone , so honda say , seems to be another quirk this car has but is not warrented or anything . Mind you , since i got mine back from the garage (only 2 days ago) i have this horrible wheezing sound that gets louder when you rev higher , not there at tick over but does sound like a tight belt or something , only put a new belt on it about 2 weeks ago , Wonder did Honda disturb something when they replaced the belt?????? , they left me with a nasty oil leak dripping from the timing chain/ crank area , drips on the driveway everywhere since i got it back , but will be knocking on their door first thing Tuesday Morn to give them a piece of mind .
Honda Accord 2.2 i CDTI Executive, 2005.
