Accord Sport 2.0t 6M (5 Reasons to not buy!) 

Ever heard of a car wash bruh

Love my 2.0t 6mt and the effortless acceleration. If you keep it at 65 mph with an occasional burst to 90 mph (to pass the slow cars and trucks) you can get over 40 mpg out of it. That's calculated.

your problems, sound like minor inconvenience.

Great review, no fluff, right to the point! Thank you for respecting my time.

Good video. At an auto show a few years ago, I thoroughly test drove a Civic Type R and 2.0t 6MT Accord back to back. The Accord did feel like a detuned CTR, but in a good way. Very smooth power, more torque than you need. Even the base 1.5t is enough power. Wish they would’ve put an LSD in the 2.0t cars. And it’s a shame they ditched the manual after two model years. But also cool they even bothered in the first place.

Your car looks so nasty on the inside.

Appreciate the review

Hey Matt, thanks for your review. You don’t say in what year your Accord was built (check the door jam). Earlier versions of any car tend to have a few issues which are improved as the car moves through the model years, which are 2018-2022 for this version of the Accord. I always buy mid to late in the model year run to allow for these few things to be addressed. I have a 2021, built in 2021 and so far it is excellent. Honda has had three years to address issues before they built my car and I believe they likely have done so being a competitive brand in the market place and as reflected in a popular consumer car magazine that publishes ratings based on a survey of owner’s experiences.

i think if you bought the 1.5L Turbo will fit you more especially in fuel economy.

It replaced the v6 accord so gas mileage isn’t supposed to be the best

For your need pad. You can can change that molding , just ask for that same molding from the dealer. However ask for one from the ExL trims. Its padded.

Don’t know about the fuel economy. I’ve achieved an overall average of 7.5 l/100 km (31 mpg avg) and at best trips at 6.2 l/100 km. All depends on how you drive.

Makes me wonder how people managed tire pressure before monitoring systems were a thing. I feel it’s an often neglected aspect of basic vehicle maintenance. I had an 05 accord v6 6 speed coupe, best vehicle I have ever owned. However, the aluminum wheels were notoriously poor and leaked air during cold months like it was their job. I stopped for air pressure checks and fill-ups more frequently than fuel. Also, my 2005 v6 got better mileage than this new 2.0 turbo 🤷‍♂️

I just bought a gently used, white 2018 1.5 Liter. Looks just like yours and it’s a manual, which I’m LOVING. #savethemanuals

I have a 2018 Civic 6MT, and I'm also over 6 ft. tall. I can confirm the issue with the knee irritated by the center console, even on the Civic. Mine has an obnoxious crease line where the two pieces of plastic meet, and it digs into my knee while driving. I cut a few inches of cushioning material and double-stick taped it over that area. Without that I don't think I would be able to drive it long distances, and I have a 110 mile commute every day. Otherwise It's a great car.

Good points!

I keep hearing about the poor shifting with the 10 speed automatic. I have not noticed any problems with my 2021. It seems like an orchestrated plan to negatively comment on Honda itself. It does seem that reporters do repeat themselves. Monkey see, monkey do. My gas milage average is high, as I do a lot of slow driving. 30 below zero driving gets down to 20 miles per gallon in city driving. It gets a lot better gas milage than my previous 2018 RA-4. This is the best car I have ever had. It is not a race car or Audi. It is a Honda. Good reliable transportation with a little zip. I will be happier than most at "Trade In Time". A lot of other cars go faster. Faster to fall apart mostly. Have you priced a dual clutch transmission? Have you checked resale values? Best to listen to Scotty Kilmer about cars. Education is always the key.

Can you do an economy test. Where ur actually trying to save gas? Or when you were daily driving it you don't ever waste gas

I had same issue with warning and see dealer lights. Turns out it was the stability control unit. It would act up and knock all my systems askew.

I have a 2020 accord sport 6 speed cv2, that i bought used through Vroom with 6k miles on it in 2022 and i have added the PRL stage 2 intake, deleted the resonator and mufflers and i have had 0 issues with my car and currently have 19k plus miles on it and i have NEVER had any of these issues with my car.

2:00 my 2010 Acura had a seat memory setting I'm guessing that was strictly with Acura. One key has a memory setting and the other key has a separate memory setting so you can share your car with your partner.

We got the 2018 2.0T with a 6speed mt last fall with 35K miles on it, It did need a new radar unit, that the dealer replaced at no extra cost, and we love it. A new radar would cost about $1K to replace so don't bump it or plow snow with it. The negatives are all the same except for the braking error. Haven't seen that one yet. The collision avoidance error is annoying and so far it reboots when you turn off the car and restart it but it's better than it not working when you really need it. It seems to have something to do with the Lane Change Assist system. It doesn't like it when you change lanes without using the directional even when you are all alone on the highway.

Sorry but I haven't had any of the problems you mentioned. So I take this video with a grain of salt. Not that it's perfect by all means, but cost vs. Value vs. Fun, it is truly a winner and you could do much worse. I've had nothing but pleasure out of this car and only wish I had the money to modify it slightly.

I have the 2.0t accord as well but with the 10 speed and one of the only drawbacks I've noticed to getting the 10 speed is it takes a lot of time to kick down compared to dropping it a gear or skipping down two gears in the 6 speed manual GTI I traded it for

Flash your computer..sounds like issues are software related. The gas tank issue is a huge one. Great video

What’s the update on your review

I bought 2018 4 years ago, the first thing I did was swap out the hard plastic near my legs. You can order the soft trim part of from a higher trim accord.

I am 6'4". The knee on plastic thing never bothered me. My only gripe is the carplay unit. Lots of glitches, especially with ios 14.

Ever heard of armor all

I'm 5.7 and don't have those many issues.

Man... I've owned an f150 and sold it for a 2019 accord in 2019. In 2020 I sold it and got a 2020 f150. After a year and some change I miss my Accord. Terrible.

Check your battery voltage for the mitigation system low battery voltage will trigger it.

I agree with small fuel tank but Im 6 ft 200 pounds and have loads of room up front and in back. Also for fuel economy I am getting 25/28 max mpg and thats normal driving. Not sure if youre in sport mode all the time or what. I love my 2020 2.0l its a big comfortable great looking car I couldnt ask for more.

I have a 2014 Accord V6 with absolutely no problems. Tend to stay away from turbos.

I considered the 2.0 but went a step further and got the 2.0 Touring... and I love it...

got to turn up the volume more

The fuel economy is the main reason I might pass on the 2.0 and go down to another model. The 2021 2.0 is getting away from the stick and im fearful this might turn into a standard option for future cars. Overall it looks like a real nice car

Bro take some pride in your ride. Geeeezzzzzz!!!

i have 1.5 accord EXL no complaints at all so far, only i agree with him when your right knee touches plastic siding, thats some times very irritating.

Might not have a 6MT. Might not have a 2.0T but I get the same enjoyment from my 2GRFE 2016 Avalon.

It’ll get better

I have the 1.5 manual. I average 31.3 mpg. It has plenty of power for me.

My dream car shift!

I hate the seats. Worst seats ever. My knee is also constantly resting on the center console. The seat bottom doesn't come up high enough of me.

The new Honda's don't have the same high quality as the old ones. Hope I'm wrong, but good luck to anyone that buys new Honda.

Idk what to do lol, I'm hearing that the 1.5T isn't a good idea bc of oil problems, and now I'm finding out from a lot of people that the 2.0T isn't a good idea if your not tryna be at the gas station everyday 😂

I find the manual as very anemic compared to my SRT4, which is more raw and has much better feedback feel.

Detuned Type R engine = same K20 block, different turbo, different injectors, different a bunch of everything.

🤙

I’m on my second one and no problems and love it! Maybe put your seat back a bit. Your complaining is funny!! Call Uber you’re not a car guy

Every issue you named.... I dont have 😂 The leg resting on the center console... Mines padded ? 🤔 A tank of fuel will last me almost 2 weeks 🤔 The TPMS thing for sure is irritating, its always on 😭

I love m'y 2018 Sport 2.0 T

Bros complaining ab 26 mpg while driving spiritedly💀

they have taken the stick shift and the 2.0 from the car options for new models..... Your car will be a rare bird in no time at all.

That interior needs to be cleaned

I’m not gone lie I think u got a bad version of the Honda I have the same car and love it and the gas is great on it and I drive everyday I can’t see why people don’t want this car 💯

No disrespect but, that engine needs to cleaned asap

Yet he has it

Brother, position your prompter to where your camera is or just show other footage with voiceover. Currently, it looks like someone made you read an essay at gunpoint.

If you want memory seats get the touring 2.0t. I get about 32 miles per gallon. If my conversion is correct you are getting about the same. To many people buy these higher performance engines expecting great gas mileage. You should have gotten a civic or the Insight. Complaining about those things is like complaining that your gorgeous busty girlfriend gets attention. It is what it is. Now your electronic gremlins are legit complaints. I will tell you from experience in other cars and this just happened in my Accord. An old battery many times is the culprit for those irritating occasional warnings. The TPS I HATE. I had a Dodge Dart before my Accord and I liked that I could view each tire's pressure. Something really seems off with your electronics because I drive over all the types of roads you mention and never get a false warning. You posted this two years ago I'm curious if you still have the car and if those electronic problems are still happening.

Me gusta honda accord esport

Bahahaha. Lay off the sport mode lmfao my shits tuned and I still average 25-35 mpg.

Buy a camri

دز امها

Just get a Toyota Camry Hybrid.....and a better Microphone!!!!!

Dude the biggest annoyance here is your video. You’re reading, I don’t need you to read to me. If you’re going to read, just make a 5 second video with walls of text I can pause on and then I can be done with it in a minute. This is annoying. Like when you were in school and someone badly read the class book aloud. Seriously. Stop it.

Clean your damn interior. How can you enjoy a drive in that car with it so damn dusty

2017 Accord V6>>>>>2018 Accord 2.0T

Lol... man, there's absolutely nothing powerful about a car that size that only has 252hp! Two things the accord has going for it is the 10speed auto and it's torque. 252hp is laughable 😂🤣😆😅

Doesn't the car have a ecomode?

Thumbs down. These are great cars
