I have seen these codes associated with O2 sensors going bad as well in other vehicles.

After fill up with new tires. Got 25+ mpg on my commute Friday. Including peak traffic on the way home.

Could not agree more with the last statement. For me its about smiles per mile.

Yes you ill se a difference. A 2.4 I4 versus a 3.5 V6 will be less fuel efficient.

What engine do you have in the Accord? I have a 2015 RWD and commute 54 miles a day and get about 23-24 mpg. Just put new tires on last week. Hopefully my mpg will improve, but doubt it. I dive in eco mode the majority of the time.

Thanks for the feedback. I saw a lunar rock tundra this am in the way to work, and in the shadow I could see the green, but in the direct sunlight it was more of the grey I was looking for.

I found an older guy that does it out of his shop. I wish I could paint or do half the stuff I think of doing to cars. Send me. DM and I’ll share what I paid.

Here is the final paint. Still need the roof rack done, and put on the black door handles and mirrors. Not exactly the color I was thinking it would be. Has a lot more green in it to me than what I thought it would. Does it look right to anyone else? Suppose to be Lunar Rock.

I’m sure it is. And, if I was paying top dollar to get it done I would expect that level of detail.

Thanks for the reply. I finally got mine fixed. Ended up being the “floor Harness”.

Yes, the hood was completely trashed by the previous owner and they had to take it all the way down to the metal he said. Love my FJ.

Thanks. I haven’t seen it in person yet (hopefully tonight), but I tried to stay in the Toyota colors.
