They're two bearings on the diff, one for the left and right... I'm not saying that this HAS to be your problem, just making sure all ideas on the floor for future reference.

My tranny still shifted fine also, if you wore ear plugs and drove the car by feel you would not know something was terribly wrong w/ the tranny.

Accords are slow, timing belted (until as of recently), unresponsive cars. You will be disappointed, I know I was that's why I own a Maxima.

*peers into your future* Ah I see you in an accord... It's even a 6spd! Very nice! But wait? Oh noes your car can't idle and you have a terrible 3rd gear crunch???

Grass is always greener my friend, dont let something like this steer you away from Maximas.

Under heavy acceleration, it's really audible @ 15 seconds



Listen closely and ignore some of the interior rattles, you can kind of hear it, especially in the gymkhana video on right turns.

Luke can you post your Input shaft bearing video in here also? It's a really good clip of another bearing failing/failure that can lead to the diff bearing failing, if my assumption is correct (this is where nealoc comes in and corrects us)
