I've put 100k on my 2.4 Accord Coupe 6 speed, and other than the infamous starter problem, I've had to do nothing to it.
I did an oil change and replaced my starter because my started had gone out after 270,000 miles.
I just replaced my starter motor on my N210 4Runner. What you're experiencing is identical - battery is fine, clicking + no start. I replaced a door actuator just prior and had disconnected the Negative on the battery as part of the door sensing sequence and it seemed to awaken my starter issue. I too had periodic starting to none.
Our 2007 Accord was $2250 in July of 2023. It had 235k miles but was well taken care of. Put on maybe 20k since then with few problems...(starter and brakes).
Recently had this happen on my 2006 CRV. Started as a slowing crank, then it slow cranked and just stopped. Jump wouldn’t help, but I could bump start it. Turned out to be the starter.
The OEM unit will outperform all the junk that people buy that's non oem. That starter lasted 20 years. It's a great product. You will likely have moved on from the car for some other problem by the time it dies again. The other non oem stuff "works" but longevity and crank time would probably been different.
Over the years I've read that the Element starter can start to go bad with just slightly different than normal reasons - most usual is a clicking or the car just not turning over.
I have a 2005 w/210,000 miles and the starter just died. Was quoted 4.5 hrs to replace = $1,200 with OEM part
The last aftermarket starter I bought for a Honda Grenaded itself after a month.
I had trouble with starter on my older Accord too, and know two people who has Honda Accord that had to replace it to under 130k miles. This car type seems like had shitty starter esp prone to Accords.
