'97 Accord issues..(Please Help!)
So I know a lot of you on here have good car knowledge and trial and error skills. I need some help I wanna get my car in PERFECT condition.
Problems:
Speedometer reads about 15 mph over
Odometer jumps randomly sometimes
Fuel tank guage ALWAYS at full (Low fuel light still comes on)
(BIGGEST PROBLEM) Front right wheel squeaks HORRIBLY at times. Seems to be in a rotation pattern w/ the speed of the turning wheel. Just replaced rotors too. I heard it may be the calipers but I'm not sure, REALLY need help w/ this guys.
If you guys could help that'd be SOO appreciated.

I would guess the speedometer is on its way out, its a fairly common problem is the 94-97s for the speedometer/odometer to break. Can replace it with one off ebay.

Could be a loose ground on the fuel gauge, or a bad or stuck sending unit.

To me it sounds like a wheel bearing but hard to say without seeing the car.

For the squeakin, if u said that u replaced the rotors and I imagine that the pads too. It might be the piston in the caliper, I have a '95 and the piston had to be fixed not replaced (its cheaper that way). What happens is that the piston does not come back all the way and tends to leave the pad a little pushed in the rotor or disc, it makes the pad crystalised and hard so when u brake its squeeks like hell. Check that with a brake shop, theyll tell u better about it. Good Luck!
