    I own one like this 2002 ex 3.0 4spd auto leather power seats traction control cruise control AC power window & sun roof . this car is one of the most reliable vehicles I've ever owned I have had zero mechanical problems with this car & I get around 28 - 30 miles per gallon & I only run premium grade fuel.

      Hi friend. Any advice with regards timing belt changes? I've just bought one with no history but only 2 owners and obviously cared for. 145k miles, 23 years old. Should I get the cambelt changed?

    • @CarLoverPhotography
      @CarLoverPhotography 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@DavidDavid-kl4ru Pop the valve cover off and inspect the belt with a flashlight you should be able to see it without removing the top timing cover. If the writing on the belt is completely gone or you see any cracks replace it with a new Honda oem belt. Mine had about the same millage when I bought it and the belt is still fine.
      Tip, loosen the spark plugs and put a socket on the power steering pump bolt and pull towards you to easily turn over this engine and inspect the rest of the belt.

      You could fit a six speed manual transmission of the seventh gen Accord to any J-Series engine, which includes the sixth gen Accord. But you gotta change out the instrument cluster, the computer and change the wiring harness. But the flanges and mounts on the J-Series engines are mostly identical.

      Thanks man, nice to hear it! :) I think I know what are you talking about, this was on mobile.de right? :) You can have a really nice discount when you find slightly damaged, low mileage one after a little accident then fix it in your local paint shop. That was my case. This 30K km is pretty expensive, but maybe worth it, I don't know! You can try to negotiate after seeing and inspecting the can. Have in mind that today's cars are pretty much crafted to break, not to last :) I've put 39k km on mine and it's perfect, not a single issue, just brake pads, engine oil, transmission fluid and this kind of stuff :)

      Unbelievable you have one of the few Honda accords with real leather. I’ve put the seat covers on the cars they are not leather and the steering wheel is far from leather. Maybe your model CC2 has what Honda advertised in all their adds real leather. All the US models came with faux leather. When they first came out they were on back order it was a pleasant surprise to see the change in body and engine.
