Honda found "ooze" on side of the engine @oil change. Cleaned, took to Acura next oil change to check. They cleaned, problem not seen in brief time there, told to come back for next oil change to confirm wasnt spill & theyll look further. |
| 20600 mi | They still aren't sure what is wrong as it's a slow ooze of oil on the side of the engine, possibly near the oil filter area. Occurs too slowly for Acura (160 mi away) to reproduce on their own. Will see if local Honda can find ooze earlier |
| 27000 mi | Intermittent rattle was diagnosed as a loosening heat shield. Will replace in the spring or if becomes more regular. |
| 28200 mi US $228 |
Heat shield had corroded and was hanging down below the car and thus needed to be replaced. Delays in repair time were due to facility forgetting to ship my parts to the dealer, otherwise would have been just a couple hours. |
| 41000 mi US $45 |
VTECH Solenoid Valve filter (Filter Assy., Spool Valve) was replaced. It was potentially oozing some oil, and due to its age, was attempted. [my car has had an oil ooze for most of its time, though it's never been able to be pinpointed] |
| 51000 mi US $5 |
Cat heat shield bolts rusted away again. Used large hose clamps to just hold it securely in place rather than replacing the entire thing, again. Was noticed that flex pipe has also rusted through on most of one end, so that repair will have to be decided soon. |
| 133000 mi US $170 |
Alternator replaced |
| 161000 mi US $250 |
Very quiet sort of hollow rubbing noise first was heard in January, had to turn radio and climate control off to hear. Oil analysis indicated no wear issues. Noise eventually grew loud enough in April to be heard over radio, did not have complete failure replaced before further issue. Not original part no info on water pump, but replaced failing water pump, poor radiator air flow may have been factor in failure due to constantly elevated operating temperatures. UPDATE: Radiator and condenser performing normally, no airflow restriction aside very bottom of bumper exposes condenser which is common on Honda. Elevated temperatures and lackluster AC performance solved with fan replacement as mentioned in next entry. Accessory belt tensioner also possibly dragging, preemptively replaced. Radiator will be replaced soon on separate repair. (Update: Radiator not replaced, in acceptable condition, no leaks) |
| 167000 mi US $80 |
Driver side radiator fan hasn’t worked for over a year, was never an issue. Finally replaced, vast difference when AC is on at idle. Took less than an hour, wouldn’t let me report as such. Swapped entire fan assembly. |

| 39060 mi | Replaced entire clutch. I paid $488 for the "parts" (they initially wanted $900), labor covered by warranty repairs. It has been occuring since ~40K km and considering the 3 other drivetrain-related repairs, I argue the clutch got unusually worn. |
| 49580 mi | Heat shields had come loose, and now started scraping loudly. With the garage unable to take me right away and having lots of appointments, I lifted the car and it was a simple procedure to remove them myself. |
| 102920 mi | Symptom was that the car accelerated in spurts and fits at part-throttle. Felt like dirty fuel system or something along those lines. Check engine light is thrown. Sometimes, the "Check VSA" light comes on, also putting the car in low-power limp-mode (an engine restart fixes that). Long story short, the engine code shows that it's an electrical problem: the throttle calibration module is faulty. I was able to confirm this by accelerating using the cruise control's buttons, and it accelerates and holds throttle smoothly. I haven't repaired this yet, because the mechanic that originally saw this got the diagnosis all wrong. He insisted it's the throttle body that needs cleaning, and that's not the case. Still need to repair this, but car is somewhat drivable. |
| 126000 mi US $1300 |
Clutch replaced. Normal wear for a car with 125k miles and original clutch. |

| 18000 mi | Vehicle stall; uneven idle. |
| 15000 mi | Very infrequently the engine would rev up after stopping the vehicle resulting in trying to overrun the brakes and not rev down until placed in park. Might be caused by floormat riding up under the pedals. |
| 115000 mi US $355 |
I kept hearing a low clunking noise in my engine when I was idle. It had been there for quite a few months but got progressively louder over the past month. Had diagnostic test run on it and turned out it was the water pump. Replaced it. |
| 102200 mi | Radiator fan motor broke and had to get entire assembly replaced Radiator fan assembly was replaced by one shop but I noticed it was broken and not working when I got home so I had another shop fix it After power steering repair my engine was making a loud buzzing noise with hard acceleration. Took to another mechanic and was told it was from an "air box" below bumper and that there is nothing structurally wrong with my car and it's okay. |
| 16000 mi | From the very beginning, a minor rattle manifested itself on rough pavement; finally located problem during routine maintenance. The problem was a loose exhaust shield; tightening the shield corrected the problem. |
| 42200 mi | Heat shield had to be tightened on account of a rattle. |

200-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed manual FWD
| 68820 mi | SEL code read crankshaft position sensor. Went to the mechanic and was told that the timing chain is guaranteed to be stretched. Car still runs okay so work is still pending. Damage can get worse or severe if chain skips several teeth. |

| 69500 mi | A low oil pressure light came on. |
| 86000 mi | I have noticed the car is burning oil. Dealer gave me a log to record when it is again down a quart, then return to the dealer for them to top it off. |
| 63500 mi US $3 |
The car was down on oil again, so took it back to the dealer on our prior arrangement. They topped off the oil, told me it has burnt 1 quart in 1700 miles. To them, that still means the motor is tight. |
| 91000 mi US $220 |
Checked again on the oil consumption, and they still say it is within spec. They will not do anything else about it. |
| 96000 mi US $600 |
I started hearing a bag of rocks sound coming from my engine. Got it into the dealer, and they diagnosed a bad water pump. Several hundred dollars later, no more sounds.
