    Hi,

    I have an Accord 98 Auto 2.3L / 4Cyl. Just about a few days ago, i
    noticed this problem. On acceleration , and then applying my brakes a
    mini power flutter takes place while driving. As soon as i hit the
    brakes , the speedometer dial drops and comes back up and my car stereo
    stops playing and starts again. This happens for probably a second. The
    car, however drives just fine and is unaffected by this sudden power
    drop (atleast ,thats what it seems like).

    Any diagnosis / help would be greatly appreciated before i take it to
    for servicing. Just trying to make sure that i'm not taken for a ride.

    Thanks in Advance

    It sounds like you've got a loose battery cable or ground connection. It
    cranks well, or have you had to 'boost' it lately? When was the battery
    replaced?

    I replaced the battery with a brand new one about 2 months ago. And the
    car starts well , havent needed to boost it since the replacement.
    I wonder if its a loose connection somewhere though but i wouldnt know
    what to check.

    Also, this problem occurs randomly and not everytime.

    Thanks for your reply. Hope I can find a solution
