Honestly, I do not mind doing it for her, I replaced the one in my Civic:

So far she has mentioned already replacing her transmission and ball joints, but said she was having panic attacks over this. She asked to borrow my floor jack and jack stands Monday night and we realized that her ex-husband had cracked the oil pan, patched it with silicone, and when her steering system went out, it scraped off the silicone. She tried removing and replacing her silicone, but she says that she needs a new pan.
Her Accord just uses a steel pan, so she looked up the price at O'Reilly and mentioned a place called Penny Pincher in Phoenix.
O'Reilly's has one for $80.
Penny Pincher's has one for $72.
A local scrapyard has one for $50.
I paid $85 for my aluminum one from a scrapyard!
When I looked into replacing mine, I saw explanations saying that it was for the Accord or Civic, but it was the same for all Honda four-cylinder engines. I still need to do a write-up because I never found complete instructions for the Civic, and I am finding less this time, so I might do one for her Accord, too.
Unfortunately, this is the only diagram that I have found so far:
For the Civic, I found this to be far more useful!
Are there any significant changes between the Civic pan and the Accord?
Also, the diagram for the exhaust system says to replace the washers.
Could that cause an exhaust leak?
Thank you very much! Please enjoy your day!
