I'm so happy I found my 04 Acura tl. She has some body damage and the dam dash is cracked but the engine and transmission is in such good condition. Over 200k miles and she is a v6 but I really don't have performance issues! My plan is to get myself on my feet and keeping my car expenses down helps so much.

This white Accord with black door handles is a VP (value package) with manual mirrors and only front speakers , it comes with ABS but it doesn't have Traction control.

I have a 2006 Accord VP in gold. Still runs like clock. No electronic mirrors or stability control, but still has the ABS brakes. Bare - bones, yes but still a well equipped car.

I had a 2003 Accord with this engine and it never burned a quart of oil in-between its 10,000 mile oil changes. Had 195000 miles when I sold it.

[@evoevannismo8141]

I have a 2007 Honda Accord Sedan 5 speed manual with almost 162,000 miles on it but will need a oil change soon. So that's pretty much nothing in terms of mileage. However it's my temporary car because once I save enough money I will buy my dream car with a stick shift of course.

[@billgund4532]

I remember adjusting my the valves on air cooled VW engines and the legendary Mopar slant 6. Easy Peasy!!

[@jjl1790]

I used to own the 2006 Accord with some options like alloy wheels. After 60k and 4 years, my wife wanted a minivan so decided to sell it. The potential buyer wanted to take it to the mechanic he knows to make sure and I agreed with some anxiety. But the mechanic the buyer knows complimented it so much like Scotty here in front of us and I ended up raising the price a grand and he still bought it.

[@Scatpack23]

I got a 05 Accord LX 4 cly with 188k miles great car, used to have a 04 ex 4cly with 220k

[@BAMAJiPS]

I thought from the thumbnail you were going to advise against buying a K20/K24 which is one of the best engines of all time. The LS of the 4 cylinder world... Agree. The J series v6 and accompanying transmission are lackluster compared to Honda's 4bangers

[@trundlepufpendants]

Nah my TL always outlasts our RSX and prelude. J engines never have problems lol

[@mikepro-ww5fg]

The v6 is for customers who like to go fast. The k series is plenty sufficient for most people however and it gets better gas mileage

[@m109r]

Don't buy any honda with the 1.5 liter with a turbo if you live in a area that gets extreme cold temperatures. 1.5 liter can't get up to operating temp if you have heating fan on high. You end up with oil dilution and very poor heat inside the cab. The 1.5 liter is a three season engine.

[@ChicanoOne760]

K24 has 3 class action lawsuits

[@jay-dt3zq]

Transmission issues were only Present with 03 and 04 models V6

[@Drayelam21]

Wife has a 09 2.4L crv. Thing is great. 200k miles, runs ok thinking of swapping it with one with lower mileage and keeo it as my daily. 20MPG in city. Not many problems in past 5 years

[@mwp1088]

Scotty I have two 05 Acuras, an MDX and a TL. TL has 145k and the MDX has 125k. I take excellent care of them (adjusted the valves on both!) and they both run and drive like new. 05-06 was peak Honda awesome and I love the V6 power. Yes they need premium and the fuel economy suffers, but I still get 30 on the highway with the TL and that's 270 HP. As long as these are maintained well (especially frequent transmission fluid changes), they will last a very long time.

[@Haller1111]

I have an ‘03 Odyssey with the 3.5 litre V6. It has 360K and counting. We have owned it for 14 years now. It has been on many odysseys across Canada and is literally the best vehicle we have ever owned.

[@michaels3474]

Let's see, pay $13 to $15.00 to fix a speed sensor or buy a new car??? I would pay the $15.00 and 20 min to fix the unit and keep the car. The only thing I see wrong with the car is that it does not have a backup camera. Okay, want and not a need for me!

[@Nova-ni5bi]

And you can easily install a backup camera!

[@stormchaser419]

3:41 The 4 cylinder K24 engine versions are some of the best engines ever!!! My 2011 Accord has the K24 Z2 version has only 167,000. Plan on taking it to 350,000.

[@JohnDoe-ud2cc]

I have the same car with about the same mileage. The car is perfect and feels tighter than most other cars with a fraction of the mileage. My wife wanted to get a newer car and I told her the exact same thing. We will have a hard time finding something better without spending big money.

[@SamslamminCars]

Normally agree Scotty but the J30 V6 of those years was extremely reliable with belts replaced. Someone is near 900k on an original engine with no valve adjustments done. I agree the vcm and newer 3.5 was prone to more issues.

[@Eco.boost2.7]

I agree and the J series motor holds good power without being built too!🤙🏼my favorite is the B series engines.

I've heard that you also need to change the timing belt for 100,000 km for the 3.5L V6. Is this true?

[@fatjaysgarage]

Those k24 engines are good engines. A lot of them develop oil consumption issues after 100k, I think it’s an issue with failing to change to oil. I had a 2012 si that I banged off the rev limiter every time I drove it. Traded her in when the air went out but engine was still going strong

The Honda J series v6 is a great engine also tho scotty. I agree the 4 cylinder is more reliable but I put 200 thousand miles on my accord with a j series. I've even seen people use J series engines in cars for a cheap reliable track build. J series is seriously underrated.

Has just over 230K miles on it and I'm hoping if I keep taking care of it I'll get at least 300K out of it. Only problem is the power steering groans, particularly when its cold and the engine isn't warmed up.

I had a 2004 Honda Accord V6 manual coupe. Don't know what you're talking about here Scotty. I see maintained V6s with 300 and 400k miles all day everyday. Was one of my favorite, zippy, and most reliable cars I EVER owned. Both are good engines. Probably easier to work on the 4 cyl. but I think the extra HP/torque was is worth it on the V6 and the for a V6 it got pretty good gas mileage!

[@crankybear1236]

Honda V6 is crazy efficient in my opinion. Had an 04 TL. 6MT and it was way more efficient than my current '21 WRX.

[@tenhundredkills]

It's not so much the engines that have issues. It's the 5-speed automatic transmissions that were mated to the V6 models. Since you had a manual, it makes sense you didn't have any issues.
