It will work for your 4cyl accord, but I am not sure what will work with your 6cyl accord models from
The answer is yes. Buying this for my 2003 ex 2 was a great buy. I had to return the head end with the threading for my 4L sedan. In other words, it does not go all the way into the appropriate part of the engine.

It was a little challenging to install, but they fit perfectly. The flared fitting should be aligned so that it goes in at a correct angle when it is connected to the power steering rack. In addition, the angle of insertion was off, so I wasn't able to line it up correctly. There seems to be a possibility of working if the tubing were somewhat angled towards the front of the car. The tubing was bent by using a crescent wrench on the flat surface of the flared fitting, attached to my vise to get the hose out of the way. The tubing just needs to be bent slightly with just enough force. Please re-read This is what it looks like when you have the hose inserted. By using a crescent wrench on the nut, you do not damage the threads of the steel hose and pipe. You should never even consider inserting a Phillips screwdriver into the tubing opening and applying bending force with it In the end, the flare will leak because you deformed it.
It took me an hour and a half to install something that should took 20 or 25 minutes. I can't close the FLARE NUT on the end of the power steering hose. In comparing the old model side by side, the old model and the new model are very similar, however, the end of bend metal has a FLARE NUT that will screw in. When I tried wetting the flare nut with 10 pounds of water in hot weather and lining it up with the rack, I couldn't get the nut to thread into place. It seems there is a big manufacturing problem with the power steering hose, based on other videos I watched. In contrast to the Honda flare nuts, which are too small to catch the thread, the flare nuts in this model tend to be too big. You can avoid having to return the item and cursing at it while trying to get it to You won't be able to see it. By going this route, I tried to save money. My dislike of returning things is that it can be.
If you don't know how to work on cars this might be a bit tricky for you to install since we had to bend and modify the hydraulic piping to make it fit but it does work. Although the threads on the new one might be bigger, we tightened them as much as we could on the old one, and I have not seen any leaks from the driving rack, even though the threads are bigger. I knock on wood (kick.
It was a bit bent, so I bent it a The engine support that blocks the way seems to work perfectly fine, but I guess it would be easier to attach if the engine support was removed so I wouldn't have to bend the engine support.
I believe that this product is of high quality, easy to install despite the videos I have seen, it only took me 45 minutes to complete it. I'll update the review if it craps out at some point.
It'll all make sense to you. I bent this into place by hand for about an hour, needing to bend the main bend Although I managed to get it to work, it took me a while.
The replacement part was an EXACT fit. During testing, it performed in line with expectations. Consider taking the hose and the car to a mechanic, if you are able to afford it! A human body has never experienced a yoga exercise as intense as this.
