I switched from the OEM Michelin to Bridgestone Quiettrack on my '18 Accord Hybrid and they are much quieter and it handles very well. I'm very happy with them, even if I have always been a Michelin man. I don't think you can go wrong with either.
Reviews of spare parts for Honda
I had x ice on my accord and they were solid with great tread life.
My daughter has a 2016 Civic bought new. First oil change was at 200mi with Mobil1 Extended, and then oil/filter changes at 15,000 or 20,000 mile intervals until 86,500. Switched to Restore and Protect and after 1k miles I changed the filter and cut it open, there were zero sludge deposits, and oil color looked new.
I bought the rain-x latitudes for now and these fit the CRV without any modifications, you do have to remove a couple of adapters but they snap right on
Denso Designer Hybrid is my favorite for all the Fit model years if you can find them. They’re the ones that come from the factory on the 09-13 models. You can get the rubber inserts from the Honda dealer for really cheap and keep your frames for a while.
And, dang, they really stuffed some meaty tires on it. Hope those are production spec and it's properly geared to turn them.
Hankook a trusted quality brand as well
I’ve always used Denso and have never had any issues, but I’ve noticed that depending on car they’re sometimes noisy. Like they make a hum sound that’s distinguishable from the usual hum of an AC system.
Battery on my '22 HRV Sport died within the first year of owning the car. Honda agreed it was defective.
I (attempted to) refurbish my old civic's AC system by installing a new denso compressor, condenser/drier, and the line that had leaked from rockauto. It passed an overnight vacuum test with flying colors, and to get a second set of eyes on my work (and pay back a local mechanic who helped me figure out where the leak was for free) I took it to a shop to get the freon charged. Passed the shop's vacuum test as well and they recharged the system - but the new compresser's clutch would not engage. He found that as soon as the compressor attempted to engage, it would blow the fuse. He said my new compressor's clutch or coil is defective and that diagnostics are pretty much done - replace the compressor and try again.
