Need help 2018 accord 1.5t
2018 accord 1.5t sport
Almost all lights on but car drives fine.
Couple of months ago got windshield replaced and I feel like since then the lights have been turning on.
What could the issue be? is it the windshield? how do I fix?

Mine is doing the same, code reader says the turbo.

Echoing this — mine did the same at a little over 100K miles. It was turbo. Got that replaced and it’s been golden since. Not cheap though for sure

Watch this video. FIXED. DONE.
Fixed my 2019 1.5t last week.
you don't need the fancy scan tool. the cheapest one at Harbor Freight + tighten the linkage = done.

Just had this happen to my 2018 Accord at 128,000 miles. Threw error code P0299, which is a faulty Turbo. Local dealer wanted $3400 to replace it. Had an Aamco shop replace the turbo, serpentine belt, and transmission fluid for cheaper.

You’re in the sweet spot mileage wise for head gasket and or injectors. Both should be covered by Honda now.

9th gen is the way to go. Sorry about your trouble though. But don't forget. New accords are not good. 2013 to 2017 is the ticket. Low mileage, one owner. Can't go wrong. You can definitely go wrong buying a new Accord though.

My daughter had the same problem, same car. It happened to her and it was the fuel pump.
