I've owned 2 Acuras and they both had a faulty air-conditioning system, that the dealership failed to see anything wrong with. When I was ready to sell the car, the same dealership told me they'd pay me $1,000 less than bluebook because the a/c compressor was "shot". The Acura rep also disapproved a warranty repair on me claiming it was my fault. Apparently, a small scratch of the right fender was the "cause" of my cooling system failing. What a load of crap!

@ElderMike 5 лет назад

I have 1999 Accord with 313,000 and it still runs great with just occasional slips on the transmission and my 2013 Acura TL has 127,000 with absolutely no problem with the transmission. My wife has 07 Civic with 182,000 miles and all she does on that car is oil change but I have seen several friends with Toyota's having transmission and engine problems with less than 150,000 miles. I personally believe Toyota is just as good as Honda, but Honda has a better reliability than Toyota. Scotty like most old people, still believe that Toyota is still the same as they were several years ago but in reality, their reliability has taken a dip over the past few years mostly due to their ambition to become the largest car marker in the world thereby sub-contracting most of their manufacturing process to third parties companies all around the globe.

By the time she sold it she put a total of 188,000 miles on the car and the car was still in good condition. My sister only took the car to one mechanic she maintained the car with regular tune ups & winterizing. The basic service oil changes The only repair I recall she ever did was changed radiator

what mods?

@Snookynibbles 9 месяцев назад

@TheGamingWolfYT …the mods I added. ::kidding:: I added: >3.7L magnesium intake for a ZDX >3.7L throttle body >Throttle body spacer (increases intake fuel charge) >AEM cold air intake for a 3.5L J35 engine >Denso Iridium plugs >Performance engine mounts that virtually eliminate engine lash upon acceleration >Exhaust tuned aftermarket J pipe (functions like headers) >High-flow mid catalytic converter >Greddy stage 3 custom mandrel bent racing exhaust system that increases pipe diameter by 1/2”, eliminates mud-muffler & resonator, and employs oversized Greddy straight flow-through muffler cans >Also coilover performance suspension, performance rear sway bar, brake upgrades to pads, stainless steel lines, & cross-drilled rotors. From reads of other Gen 3 TL owners off the Acurazine website who posted dyno results, my car is making around 290-300 flywheel up from stock 258. It feels faster & it corners like a go cart.

I fixed the moisture in my headlights problem by drilling very small holes in the top corner of my headlights where they don’t show much cause vapor rises up. At first I was concerned about water getting back in during rain or car washes but they’re so small that i hadn’t had a problem with it.

we have a 1999 Honda Accord and it's pushing 250,000 miles the transmission hasn't been touched other than regular maintenance. I think you're confusing them with Subarus.

Subaru’s are very reliable. Some Honda V6 transmissions were problematic. .

I’ve had an 02 civic ex coupe 5 speed when I got rid of it had 175k miles and ran Strongggg and now have an 08’ TL-S 6 speed with 115k miles and run beautifully. I love Honda/Acura and I believe the some of the brand new ones might have issues but overall they are great cars.

Hey Scotty, this might be a little late qn, Just wanted to know about the Acura TSX 2010 - 2013 (Wagon/Sedan) would you recommend getting a used one under 100k miles?

@Buc_Stops_Here 5 лет назад

Spot on Scotty. Transmission on Acuras only gave me fits. Failures within 60,000 miles on one, failure on a V6 Honda Accord within 30,000 on another. Everyone tells me that it was a fluke, but then I find out that they had problems within 100,000 miles themselves.
