I am not sure about the 2004 Accord vs. 2003 Accord tho I suspect the same for the 4 cylinder engine. Maybe someone can confirm this ???? For the 2003 4cyl Accord, it specifies a drive belt which includes timing as part of functions. For this belt is says to inspect it at certain intervals and depending on the findings, it may need to be replaced. ref (2003 Accord sedan) : https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/...303O00302B.pdf and https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/...303O00248B.pdf (see page 250 and 252) ref (2004 Accord sedan) : https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/...404O00234B.pdf (pg 235) Hope this helps !! |
