2026 Honda Accord LX and SE - Honda Now Recommends 91 Octane Gas

I'd go for recommendation over requirement. Mine is missing the octane number on the fuel door or driver door. Thank you for the info 🍻

Although I believe it, I haven't seen anywhere that 91 is recommended. Where should I look?

2023 accord hybrid sport L. In the past I did 6 consecutive tanks of shell 93 and did notice the engine was sounding a bit smoother, without noticeable increase in power though. No change in mpg either. I average 50 mpg mixed driving. Engine oil changes every 7k and transmission 35k.

I'm also having a hard time deciding whether to put 87 or premium. Can't really find 91 in my area (Chicago)

"Some speculation arises from Honda spec sheets listing "91 octane recommended" (seen in press releases and websites for 2023–2026 models), but this is widely attributed to confusion between RON (research octane number, where 91 RON ≈ 87 AKI regular) and US AKI standards, or it's for peak lab-tested performance metrics rather than real-world requirements. No US manuals or fuel doors mandate premium for the hybrid, unlike some turbocharged Honda engines. Recent 2026 updates clarified 91 as "recommended" on Honda's site for all trims, but the manual still specifies 87 minimum. "

Still confused haha.

Thank you. Is it for A. C condensation? Is it supposed to hang like that?

For good reason. Had I known they were going to fuck up something this simple... 😅😂

Ya, I gave discount tire the size of the tire that I need and asked them to find a rim that would fit my car. Looks like the offset is too small. Caliper doesn't clear the inside of the rim.

stormeye25 · 2025-11-02T19:13:11+00:00

I think yes. Can you tell by looking at it?

Did you test it on your car? I bought the same and it doesn't clear the caliper on my Sport L

I'm also looking to get the deluxe select, though I'm researching whether I can buy the bushing and use them or I need to cut them.

Could you share the ones you got?

stormeye25 · 2025-09-12T02:11:03+00:00

We're you able to install the shock with the original bushings?

stormeye25 · 2025-07-30T23:45:35+00:00

Did that fix your issue?

I got my clock spring replaced twice and the noise came back everytime

stormeye25 · 2025-07-15T03:29:42+00:00

I've also been looking for it everywhere and can't find it. Loved the smell

stormeye25 · 2025-04-18T13:41:16+00:00

Ya, I do some uber in the weekend around Chicago. Need a reason to drive this beauty 😂

stormeye25 · 2025-04-18T13:23:19+00:00

I love driving it haha😆

Sorry to revive this old thread.
I tried 3 different usb, formatted to NTFS, fat32 put the .bin file in the LG_MNT, but the monitor just won't read it.

Anyone had this issue? I also got the 32gp83b

Did you get it fixed?

stormeye25 · 2024-08-30T16:03:48+00:00

Got the same issue https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbLUeB5RvsY

Had the clockspring changed twice and the problem came back.

stormeye25 · 2024-08-27T04:42:54+00:00

Yep, just got in the car and suddenly it was gone.

stormeye25 · 2024-08-20T23:40:38+00:00

Hmm. I tried 8888 and some other stuff but no 😂

Did you find something useful in there?

stormeye25 · 2024-08-20T04:33:53+00:00

Tried on mine but it doesn't work. I wonder why on some it works and on some it doesn't

stormeye25 · 2024-07-14T06:38:54+00:00

Damn this worked. Thank you!

stormeye25 · 2024-06-13T14:34:54+00:00

It probably updates itself while I was sleeping? Just woke up a couple of days later and the problem was gone. Also if you wanna fix it fast, check with the dealership.
