Honda Accord 2.4L Starter Replacement 2007 (2006-2007 Similar). In this video I show how to remove and replace the starter on a 2007 Honda Accord with a 2.4L engine. Replacing the starter on a 2.4L Accord can be a bit more work than other models because the starter is under the intake manifold. The exact vehicle in this video is a 2007 four cylinder Honda Accord 2.4L EX Sedan. 2007 Honda Accord 4 cylinder starter replacement.

Thanks for the very detailed video! I probably took me less than two hours to do. The bracket below the intake manifold was the most challenging. I decided to just remove the nut that connects the bracket to the manifold, and I think that was the right choice. The intake tube was cracked as expected, so I replace that as well ($16 aftermarket part). I chose to just replace the brushes in the starter. I got an aftermarket kit ($15) and it took about 20 minutes to install. Now it starts like a champ again.

I was a little anxious about disconnecting all the hoses, but looking at the actual car, the hoses are all in good condition and seem unlikely to break, etc. Even the big air inlet pipe is closer to 'rubber' than plastic, so I can hopefully remove it w/o issue.

Thank you for your 2004 and this 2007 starter videos. I have a 2006 Accord with the big canister behind the intake manifold. I don't like to disconnect the coolant hoses. I rotate the intake manifold, with the throttle body attached, 90 degrees upward at the right side of the engine bay. i.e. the left side of the manifold is pointing toward the ceiling and the throttle body is pointing toward the ground. The coolant hoses are connected to the throttle body at all time. I have lots of rooms to work on the starter just like the intake manifold is outside of engine bay.

This is the only tutorial works for me. 07 accord intake manifold has an additional plastic structure blocking the access to the starter. So if the manifold is not removed completely there's no enough room for the operation, especially for untucking the 17mm bolt, which is extremely tight. Great video, also some details are showing a good working habit. Learnt a lot. 👍

Great video and thanks for all the explanations! I wish I had seen this video 2 1/2 years ago when I was changing the starter in my 2006 Honda Accord. Question: I'm not sure what all happened with the way I changed the starter, but I've been getting a check engine light with code P0420 since then. Any idea what might have gone wrong? The video that I watched 2 1/2 years ago, recommended to remove the throttle body and that required changing the gasket. I also changed the gasket on the manifold. I also cleaned the throttle body with some throttle body cleaner. I might have made a mistake by cleaning it after I reinstalled it on the car. The CEL comes on and off from time to time, but mostly on. Recently, I had several other codes, and I then I realized the filter intake hose was cracked and needed to be replaced, and that took care of several codes. I also had an issue with the Evap Solenoid, and I watched one of your other videos on how to replace it. Thanks again for your great videos!

Yo yo big 🐕, hope you & your family's New Year's was wonderful!! My 2006 Honda Accord EX 2.4 l is squeaking of course at the power steering pump & the bearings are 🥃 (shot - hey, it's 1-1-2023) & of course it's making a slight grinding noise internally so I'm replacing the power steering pump then swapping out the pulleys. Using FEL-PRO MS 96474 Exhaust Manifold Gasket Set. My car's got 245,000 mi on it so the starter and alternator are not far behind. Since I have to take the exhaust manifold off in it's entirety to get to the starter, I'm just going to purchase a new, NOTHING REMAN, starter, power steering pump & alternator and replace everything since I'll have easy access to everything once the exhaust manifold is off. NAPA is your friend for "lifetime warranties" as long as the parts installed on the vehicle the same owner owns at the time of failure! Yes, I know the old saying if it's not broke don't fix it but it makes the most sense to me because I know the starter and alternator are not far behind. Nothing worse than the starter not starting and the alternator not charging. HERE's CHEERS 🍷 to a happy, healthy & profitable 2023 NEW YEAR !!

When I troubleshoot a screeching complaint, I first look for loose drive belts, bad pulleys or a bad component (binding or seized) attached to those pulleys that is causing the belt to lose grip with the pulleys and chirp. That being said, I have not heard the sound yours is making and sounds that vehicles make can sometimes be deceiving (or hard to describe to others).

Maria, the reason why mechanics charge a lot of money, is because it takes a lot of tools, money for tools, knowledge and know how. I can easily see a 2007 Honda accord starter labor alone to be $400. The fatigue on his back is a lot, he should actually jack the car up from the sub frame and put it on jackstands in the front and then block the back wheels. Other tutorials say to just Tyler the intake manifold back but on a 2007 accord, There is a plastic resonator so you have to remove the intake manifold and the throttlebody as one unit, basically you just dissecting the entire engine. You are pulling vacuum hoses and unplugging sensors galore. The fatigue on your forearm from twisting these nuts is great, that is why you use an electric device whenever you can. Another to KZfaq channels let's say for example a 2004 Honda accord the installation may be a little bit easier, but not the 2007

@@jems924 I purchased a new Duralast Gold starter for $240 at Autozone lifetime warranty. I installed it 12am- just finished at 8am. Took me 8 hours and my hands are cut up, lol. I wanted the experience to install this because I have done head gaskets and suspension parts before, but never a starter. I havent been to a mechanic in 20 years cuz im a DIY home mechanic. I followed his youtube techniques. But it wasn't as planned. First you remove the Plenum, I call i the intake manifold.. But there are 2 tiny hoses near the throttle body that is attached to the plenum that he didnt mention, so when i removed the 2 hoses, coolant started shooting everywhere. So I couldnt remove the Plenum as he did in the video. Unless I drained all the coolant. Which i didnt. So i pulled the plenum back and tied it, which gave me clearance but that is the #1 reason home mechanic always cut up their hands. Its because they do shortcuts instead of removing things and squeeze their hand in tight places. I watched the Lex Fridman and Joey Diaz podcast on youtube so I was taking my time just chilling. But the previous mechanic who worked on the 2007 accord in my posession stripped 1 of the mounting bolts so it wont go that tight. argg. That caused a 3.5 hour delay. If you like to work on your car, and you have a garage, and $500 in tools... then its good just for life experience so you know. I could have paid someone $250-$400 to install it, but now I have the experience. My car started after i installed it, thank god, lol. I know moving forward, for my particlar car, to drain all the coolant, that way I could take off the plenum and have easy access to the starter mounting bolts without scraping up my hands for future reference. If I were a mechanic, I wouldnt touch this job for under $500 installation charge. It was a hellish 8 hours .. and my hands are cut up, lol. Just finished.. Its 9:53am right now.. Im going to check the stock market and go to sleep later. My Mercedes the starter is going out.. But, I hear its super simple to change on a Mercedes V6 because it is super easy access. My Mercedes is easier to work on than my Honda because theres more room/bigger engine bay. Also, when I adjusted my valves on my honda accord, it was easier than changing the starter. If your in Los Angeles and need help, i can help you. U just need your own garage. Have a good day! Just want to share my hellish instal story, lol.
