My guess you are moving, i dont know.....
bad brakes, do not drive such a car.
one reason for this is cracked rotors.
or might be bad CVs. CVs can be stressed more with braking,

SOURCE: 2008 honda accord replace rear brakes

no, 12mm wrench or ratchet on 12mm socket. the piston is tough to push back in. its a twist in type and you will need some force to push and twist the piston back in. - note rear brake pads wearing out on the new 08-09 accords are very common and if under 16-18 thousand miles it may be covered. honda knows about this problem

SOURCE: clicking sound when i press the gas pedal

The clicking and popping sound like a problem with the CV joints. The best repair for this is to replace the CV half-shafts. The brake noise may or may not be related to this issue. If the noise is coming from the front, it could be that you need new brake pads, or that the rotors need to be resurfaced, or the brakes may need some other adjustment. If the noise is coming from the rear, you may need new brake shoes, or the drums need to be resurfaced, or there could be another issue. Have the brakes checked out when the CV axles are replaced.

If you need more help with these issues or if you have any more questions just let me know.

What can cause the brake lights not to work on my 2008 Honda Accord

there are several things. A blown fuse. A bad brake switch. There should be power at the red wire all the time and power at the light green wire with the brake pedal depressed. As, likely as it may sound all the bulbs could be burnt out (it does happen).

have your ear brakes checked and or replaced. Possible worn pads. There is a worn indicator on the pad that scrapes the rotor when your brakes are worn. If they arent worn, have them inspected!!hopefully this helps!!

I replaced the pads on my 2005 Honda Accord. I had

ABS only senses if the wheel is spinning or not.
"Thumping sound" sounds like a bad problem. I've not had thumping sound from my front brakes ever.
I don't know how a caliper could cause thumping.
Is everything installed correctly and do the brakes stop the car??

Strange noise in the in the front of my Honda accord 2005. It happens when I accelerate and take curve.

could be ball joint, wheel bearing, brakes anything splash-guard ? is it a grinding noise or a thumping noise or a squealing noise or thumping and any of the above together along with it or just a single one listed above this will better my thoughts what it may be //

however if you can raise the vehicle and support it for safety reasons ....try to move the tire from side to side and back and forth top and bottom to see how much play is present ,if nothing proceed and remove the tires and look for anything obvious 1st ..and use a drop light flashlight to better view everything that stands before you and as well hands on and see if anything appears loose or broken ...for starters

2003 honda accord alarm problem

Check Brake pedal sensor (contact behind pedal), this part tends to break on alot of Hondas it will apear broken most likely. If that's not the issue you could try to check or pull fuses that are associated with the alarm (check owners manual).To overide the shifter there is a small tab next to the shifter itself pop this up with a screwdriver and then depress the tab underneath, while depressing the tab shift the vehicle out of gear. You may ask why the brake pedal sensor? When you change your car into gear from park you have to depress the brake pedal, when you depress the brake pedal the sensor becomed engaged and sends a signal to the cpu which sends a signal to a sensor by your shifter and unlocks it. If the brake pedal sensor is broken or faulty it will not engage properly and there will be no signal sent.

2005 honda accord noise when breaking (transaxle)

You say you hear the noise when you "slow down". Does this mean you hear the thumping noise when you let off the gas and let the car coast to a stop or only when you are applying the brakes to decellerate?
If you only hear the noise while applying the brakes then I would assume it has something to do with your brakes. The first thing that comes to mind would be rotors that aren't true or warped which could make a thumping sound.

Do you feel any vibrations in your foot when it is applying pressure to the brake pedal? If you do feel a sort of pulsating feeling then it could very well be your brakes making the noise.

I hope I was of some assistance,
