Can you review a 2024 Honda Pilot? Can't decide between a 4cyl highlander hybrid or a v6 honda pilot for my little family.
@polovan23 buy a honda pilot and make sure 1oz of prolong oil additive is in the oil changes
Also honda a partnership with chevy. Check out the hydrogen EVZ teamwork
You forgot to include the intro "Rev up your engines!"
I want to see you try out a 2024 mustang!
@scottykilmer what’s a good pickup truck between 2017-2022?
In case this is your first Scotty Kilmer video, a summary of the video is this: Scotty doesn't like CVT transmissions
I don't blame him
I dont either. Listen even nissans crap cvt we own one of them its not that bad i just dont trust it to last 500,000 miles. I think the car will make it to 100,000. Beyond possibly. Although ive seen some people take some jumk cars pretty far i kean listen their is still model t rolling around they wouldnt be here today without spending some money. Its a tough game today you look at the nissan is has a bad trans who knows how long it lasts bitnits also a naturally aspirated 4 banger so you never know how things work out. And it also depends on what the budget youre working with. Every car in my house has different amounts of money we are willing to throw at them so sometimes it makes sense. In one car a trans job might not he that bad of a job compared to what it would cost to deal with something like an f150 ten speed. I like affordable hondas and toyotas but these days im less impressed because the various different additions over the years and regulations I think it has make the vehicles cost more but have a lower average quality. We used to have an f150 and thatnthing was impressive in some ways but dissapointed me in others. Same with the hondas and toyotas. Even toyotas i can show you deep in its loins the spots toyota is scared of you finding out about. No vehicle is perfect. I have a motorcycle endorsement so ill usually buy a motorcycle because to me things like kawasaki klx300 gives a lot more oppprtunities in terms of howni spend my free time inbetween tasks on the daily.
Thanks. Saved me a half hour
🤣🤣🤣
Do the new pilots have cvt transmissions?
Hybrids make much more sense than a full EV.
Yes, especially if it's NOT the plug-in hybrid 👍
@@mrgarrison3516 Yep.
I agree. My car was getting warranty work done and the dealer gave me a Hybrid Camry as a loaner. I didn’t think I would like it but I did. The acceleration from a dead stop was good and the mileage was great. So yeah, I would buy a hybrid.
@@mrgarrison3516 Why not? I am looking to get a Prius Prime
living in cold climate i want as little electronics as possible
I've had my '23 CR-V hybrid for almost a year and it has been great. Very smooth, fairly quick, quiet and comfortable, tons of space, and excellent gas mileage.
i also have same car. Have you tried the new mobil 1 hybrid 0-20w engine oil?
I have a 2002 2.4 honda CRV auto here in Australia with 367k kms on it and it still runs fine. I'll have to say the old 2.4s are unbelievable.
K series are solid engines.
I got a 2001 CRV with 360k miles, going strong
2015 here, also in Aus. 2.4, 4WD, no CVT, no direct injection. Last of the good ones! Gotta admit I do envy your external spare wheel and picnic table though!
2005 Accord 4 cylinder auto 288k miles 30.5 mpg mixed driving last trip. Swore I got 40 mpg highway once.
So is my 2017 Accord with 3.5L V6. No issues since I bought it new. 443,000km. Driving like new
Can you imagine if everyone kept vehicles 20,30,40 years like Scotty, the overall carbon footprint would drop significantly without having to go EV
Agreed
yep. Planned obsolescence is probably more damaging to the environment than anything else out there. People needlessly throwing out their phones every year, adding more and more junk to cars that breaks and makes the car cost too much to repair so it's totaled, etc...
Yes. Those so called EV batteries also not environment friendly too.
Mine over 22.😊
I only have Vehicles Pre 2003. I’m keeping them till I’m gone 😂. Maintenance and very few Repairs is way Cheaper than the Current payments on the Newer Vehicles for Sure.
A little minor addition
Honda's eCVT isn't actually a transmission, there's no gearbox nor belt, it is actually, JUST the electric motor
The gas/petroleum engine only connects to the wheels via 6th gear at very rare instances (usually highway speeds)
So the electric motor isn't really there to "boost" it, it's doing the bulk of the driving!
So more straight electric with a gas overdrive.
Help me understand. What was happening when Scotty floored it off the line? He complimented the engine sounds. That's a direct connect from engine to wheels? I need to readup on them.
Also it’s not really dual exhaust. It has 2 finishers but only 1 output
There is a good video online where someone takes apart the entire "transmission" housing the electric motors, rather interesting.
The engine mostly acts as a generator to recharge the battery pack. The engine is not directly connected to the wheels 95% of the time. There are 2 clutch packs that CAN connect the engine to the wheels in more specialty situations, either at very low speed for added torque, or at higher highway speeds for added power/speed. Most of the time it's the main electric 180 HP Drive Motor that is driving the wheels directly. Honda calls it an E-CVT, just for marketing so as to not overly confuse the customer. It's not an actual CVT however, there are no belts or pulleys. Which is why the car feels so much more responsive and quick than something like the Rav4. In a Rav4 all power (gas and electric) flows through a regular belt and pulley CVT. Nothing is directly linked to the wheels like the Honda.
2014 Honda Crv with 145k no issues. Transmission was sluggish, new tranny oil and she's purring.
2007 Honda CRV. Bought for $4k. Put over 100k with no issues. Almost 300k. Never buying a new car
I've had my 1976 Oldsmobile 442 for 45 years now. It stopped being a daily driver in 1987. However I do take it on cross country trips every now and then.
I've got a 2013 CRV the year before. They came out with the Turbo charge. 1.5 and still has a 4 speed. Automatic transmission that I'm happy with.
Still driving 2001 civic. The older it gets, the prouder i am
5:26 “the angels are with us” lol 😂… it does sound like that though
I bought the ‘24 Touring hybrid and I love this car. Comfortable, quiet, just a sweet car. Only thing that bothered me is no fog lights, but, getting used to that. Absolutely no regrets. And the Touring has leather trimmed seats. So comfortable. Went thru a drive thru yesterday and the guy at the window commented how quiet the car was. Just love her!
Fog lights are only for cosmetics. I have a 22 accord with fog lights, and with fog lights on or off don’t make a difference. Mainly because led headlights are good enough. If we get HID fog lights, then that would be something to consider.
Agree to disagree. I do a lot of night driving and they did help. I do miss them. Hopefully they’ll come back on the next models!
I miss my HIDs on halogen housing headlights 😂 . But hopefully fog lights do come back in newer models esp ones with higher mounted headlights
Uh...you have 99.9 % of the car you want, design fog light setup and install it or pay someone a few hundred bucks to do it.
I just picked up a 24 Civic Hatchback 2.0 L 6 Speed Manual last week and I'm loving it! 40 mpg and it's super smooth. The hill start assist is amazing! Overall fun car to drive and looking forward to many years of reliability.
2014 Civic - 40+ mpg combined, 45+ on the highway. It has no turbo, a small engine, and little power but it does the job reliably.
Does it have a 1.5 or 2.0 liter n/a engine?
@@mrgarrison35162.0 was in the 08 Si i didn’t know they were in the 2014s very cool
That's great mileage and gets better mileage on the highway than city, the way God intended it.
We just went with the Mazda CX 5... Big 2.5 litre engine and 6 speed automatic. Only getting 25 miles per gallon in local traffic but we are happy with it. Made in Japan and put together much better than our Toyota.
I hate CVT’s, they suck! Rented a car in Iceland with a CVT. Couldn’t wait to return it. I own a Mazda CX-3. Will probably upgrade to a new CX5. Mazda still makes vehicles with conventional transmissions. 🙏👍
Mazda's have sketchy reliability and poor resale... Most would never drive a budget Mazda.. old 6-speed transmission..😂oil burners as well once they get past 70k
my 15 cx5 now 150k miles no problems so far run perfectly awd system is very good in snow i change oil myself no oil burning as you mentioned the resale value is good here in my country..after few years i maybe will get the newer one.@@charlesjackson1700
youre the type of customer who isnt concerned with overall cost of ownership, specifically depreciation. Thats why u bought a mazda. A rav4 will fetch +$5000 more in the second hand market. But thats fine if youre happy to pay less than german for your driving dynamics most of time you cant use in traffic....
@@philipf2705
Yes,it used to be like that, but tables has turned. mazda cx-5 from somewhere 2012 are very solid whilst Toyota now has some questionable builds coming out...
I had a 2001 Civic for years and it was a warrior. Just last year I sold it at 225k miles and bought a 2012 CRV. It's been great so far.
What's the logic in selling a used car for a used car? I can't wrap my head around this one. please school me.
@@Mark-pb8kj For starters, they are both different cars. One is a small SUV and the other a sedan or coupe. Most CRV's have RealTime 4wd while the CIvic is FWD only. One is higher ground clearance than the other. Plus he upgraded to something 11 years newer. Maybe he wanted to switch things up.....ok, that's enough for today's class.
@@Watts378 Who tf are you... the substitute?
I had a 2001 Civic with a manual 5-speed that I bought brand new. I sold it to buy a bigger car a few years later, but I wish I had kept it. Hard to find a good manual now. That Civic was fun to drive, and very zippy.
Do currently own the 23’ CR-V exl trim, and it’s a great family car, reliable and pretty quick.
The things I find annoying with the new Honda CRV hybrid is that progress is sometimes regressive:
1. No spare tire. I’ve owned 4 Honda CRVs & they all had a flat tire at least once where the spare tire saved a lot of time & added safety. Why should an SUV lack a spare tire? Safety issue.
2. The rear seats self fold with the pull of a single handle. Done away with the new hybrid.
3. No fog lights like my 2012 CRV. This helped by minimizing tunnel illumination on unlit roads. It’s nice to better visualize the edge of the road, another safety issue.
4. I wish they would return with the Honda CRV picnic table. This would cause a lot of jaw dropping at picnics & Honda got some free advertising.
The handle pulls to let the seatbacks down is gone from ANY trim in the new CRV's. And once they are down, huge hump to get over if you're pushing something longish in from the back....really dumb and regressive, as you said.
I agree with you. This was deal breaker. I brought different brand !!! I love to death.
New Honda is not reliable. My friend have 2020 Accord with engine issue.
2015 Honda Cr-V Ex that I THANKFULLY bought used with 65K miles pre pandemic for $13k. Ticked over 112K miles this week and only changed fluids, oil and tires. I can sell it for more than I paid with the additional 45K miles I put on it in today's market. Honda CVTs are another breed. I was a little hesitant at first, but I change the transmission fluid every 30k and it is humming along smoothly. I have seen some for sale with 280K miles on them and still asking $10k. My old Subaru Outback blew 2 head gaskets within 80k miles so I went back to Honda.
If it's a hybrid it has a 2.0 naturally aspirated engine. the non-hybrid has the 1.5 turbo.
I own a 2011 CRV with 164k miles on it. Great SUV. My only knock is the AC compressors are poorly made. I have had the compressor clutch replaced and then 4 years later the compressor failed and I had the whole unit replaced last year. Not cheap for fixing the AC. Cost me $1100
My 2010 Accord coupe 2.4l has 435,000 kms. I just went to the mechanic for an inspection. He said there is nothing at all to fix. I've never had a car 14 years old.
I've owned six Honda's, since 1994. The last was a 2019 Passport, and I was NOT impressed in the least. I do wish I had held onto the 2007 Ridgeline RTL. Best truck I've ever owned.
Based on my personal experience which is nothing like a large population sampling. I like Toyota over Honda. My daughters had Honda V6 engines that drank oil around 1 quart every 1000 miles which according to Honda was acceptable and they wouldn’t do anything about it. I have owned 8 Toyotas and Lexus vehicles and have never added oil to any of them between oil changes. I’m not saying that Toyota hasn’t built crap vehicles but fortunately I haven’t bought one. 😂
@@chucke756 The last CR-V my sister has did exactly the same thing. And Honda reacted the same way. Shame on them.
@@chucke756had a similar issue with my accord 40k miles and started burning oil at that same rate
Also had a bad experience with a newer Honda, 2017 Pilot that we bought new. Trans went out at 70k miles, fuel injectors went bad just outside of warranty
Eh, every brand has problems here and there
I love my 2024 civic hatchback, though I haven't had any issues in 4k miles. Way faster than anyone actually needs honestly. And dont stomp on the accelerator in a cvt and you'll be good. launching a cvt is asking for trouble......get a manual if you're worried about the transmission, its a phenomenal little car that I'm proud to drive around in a sea of suvs and trucks. plan on getting an older civic or acura with a stick.
The 2024 Civic has a recall because the front tires can rub and cause the tires to blow out.
@@jaysmith179I just got my 24 hatchback in late December not sure if they addressed the recall or they’re just going to wait to mail me the recall notice
@@jaysmith179not all. I took mine in for the recall and mine wasn’t affected. At least Honda addresses a problem before it becomes a problem.
Hi Scotty I bought my 2024 RAV4 Hybred XLE All Wheel Drive with a sticker of $40 I paid $35K you just have to bargin.... Thanks for the excellent videos. PS I get 38.6 MPG in city,
We have 178,000 on our 2018 CRV EX with the 1.5 liter turbo and still going strong. Replaced the injectors once with Honda discounting the repair
The injectors failing is a common problem on the 1.5 turbo 4 cyl. when they first were released.
@@buzztruckerAlso common on some of the newer GDI J35s, ours failed just outside of warranty at 37k miles. And then the trans went out at 70k. I will not be buying another Honda
One of my coworkers just purchased a 2024 Honda pilot. A week after she purchased the brake calipers fell off while she was driving. That’s Honda today.
Wow, that's horrible. Our 2017 pilot we bought new was also a nightmare to own. Sad to say because I used to only buy Hondas, but they are really just riding out their old reputation at this point. We live in a crazy timeline now that BMW makes more reliable cars than Honda
2024 top of the line CRV Sport Touring 5k miles in I never drove anything more perfect 😍
@@d47000 No it doesn't. All cars built from COVD point on , are having quality issues due to parts that they acquired. Based on 2022 stats, BMW is way up higher in recalls

Love my 10th gen hatch
45,000 miles strong right now
I work at Honda and the 2.0 hybrid are the most reliable Hondas we make in 2024
What kind of problems the 1.5 turbo will have on a long run ? I mean for 10 years ?
Of course you would say that...remember "I work at honda" smh
C’mon Scotty, today Honda, tomorrow Toyota or Mazda. You used to provide some really sound advice on cars, but now it’s all about the shock value for hits.
i mean, these...do kinda suck, honestly
I went with a 24 Honda Pilot because it still features a naturally aspirated V6 it’s one of very few larger SUVs that haven’t gone to 4 cylinder turbos and I just feel like it will likely last better than the turbo 4 like what you’re saying
Just traded my 2024 Pilot Elite for a 2024 CR-V sport glad I did. Pocketed 10k and get better mileage. Can't see paying all that extra money for all those accessories. Loved my Pilot this move just made sense .
The CRV hybrid doesn't have dual exhaust. It's just for appearance and symmetry.
You generally won't get true dual in anything that's not a v engine.
The 2017 thru current CR-V's have dual outlet pipes. @The1stRealVR
I am a huge fan of my recently purchased used 2016 HR-V. Despite scotty’s hate for CVTs its served me well so far and the transmission is fully covered under my warranty. Seems like a reliable and comfortable economy vehicle but only time will tell.
I’m not too far from him in nc with a 2016 scion im Cvt. I would be a dream come true for him to do a video with my car focusing on the 8 year old Cvt and what my 100,000mi maintenance procedure should look like!
Don’t buy turbo engine - too much pressure inside engine. I get 2.0l Honda non turbo engines. Last forever. Also, no hybrid for me!
2016 Civic 2D LX.
@@Zebra_32007 Honda Civic coupe lx 🥰
I agree with u about not buying the 1.5 T, but I still do like the CRV & RAV 4 in hybrid.... they're just expensive 🤔
I have a 2.4 l in my Accord with 500.000 km still run smooth. Where is going to look at the new Accord in 2018 I found out it was the 1.5 Turbo. Eff that. Now the brand new one is a boat
@@savethemanuals1597 2024 Accord EX trim (base model) has a 2L engine (no turbo). Scotty says it's a reliable engine.
To be real I prefer the hood stick holder!Those self holding pressurized rods give out randomly and can come down on your head!Theyoriginally use those for the rear door lift-gate and if people remember your trunk would come down on your head, the same thing just in the hood!
...and I can imagine they're very expensive to replace those heavy duty struts 🤔
I love my '07 CIVIC. Just got back from driving from Homestead, Fla to Chicago at 80 (sometimes 90) MPH. 33MPG with a bicycle rack and bicycle on the back. I turned 90K on the way home. Before driving down, I had the dealership change the oil and it was the first time I had used synthetic. Didn't use a drop. I don't want all the bells and whistles that the new ones have. Mine was their top model in '07 and I got the optional aero package. Rarely ever see other CIVICs with that option (no spoiler). I hope to have it till they throw dirt on top of me.
8th gen gang 💪🏼
A Honda Accord with a manual transmission and a 2.0T engine is all I need in life.
sad if honda is making crap cars now. I have some relatives with an old honda with a manual transmission. It has 250,000 miles on it and is showing no sign of needing to be replaced anytime soon. I personally have an old honda snowblower from like 1990, just a big hunk of a metal with a motorcycle engine strapped on top, doesn't even have an air filter. Thing still starts on the first pull over 30 years later. They don't make 'em like they used to, that's for sure
Another thing hard to get unless specifically custom is Honda accord in manual trans! I believe Honda accord does not come on manual after 2019 and there was a short time between 2013-2015 only automatic
Those Honda manual gearboxes actually shift pretty nicely
Honda makes excellent small engines. Really like them. But I’m a big fan of Yamaha products. They make excellent motorcycles, boat engines, etc. I would say that most Japanese products are really excellent.
My vehicle is a 2004 Toyota with 97,000 miles plan to drive it another twenty years..
I bet it will too
I just watched the Caredge channel and the say the new Hondas with remote starts, the rear defrosters shatter the rear window. No recalls yet but people have been complaining and Honda is not fixing it, so be careful....
I had a 23 Ridgeline and it was horrible. Got a 23 Frontier and it is so much better and more reliable.
I believe that you don’t have to push and hold the start button. You can just push it once and it’ll start.
I always keep my 87 model vehicle, when I have to keep putting my 2013 Ford in the shop
I have the 2024 Honda HRV EXL. Love it so much - it has shown a few glitches though.
Honda has been experimenting with this for over a decade! Hybrids are the blend of two worlds. makes more sense than a Full EV
Scotty doesn’t need doors when he plays the music band, The Doors, on his radio.🎵
hey the hybrid is direct injection so this will make carbon build up
Thanks Sir, for your honest reviews
Next video: Why new Hondas are so reliable
I have been very disappointed in Honda recently. I'm leaning towards not getting one as my next car.
I found out that Honda cars were crap years ago when I bought a Honda fit and within 6 months, the front driver carpeting wore out and there was a hole in the carpet! When I contacted Honda for a warranty repair, they told me it was normal wear and tear.. WTF. They would not replace the shitty carpeting in a six month old Honda fit. The carpeting was paper thin. CRAP. That is when I told Honda----You have lost my business. This is the 4 Honda I've bought and the very last one. Goodbye. Never looked back. You are right. Honda's are crap.
Scotty's voice is so unique and easily recognized that he can voice over stuff in Nat Geo, funny version. But they gotta show him with all his hand gestures to make it iconic, he can easily conduct an orchestra performance with all that.
"The angels are with us" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that got a chuckle out of me nice one
Picking same vehicle up in a few days!
I like gears too. My 04 malibu has 279,000 and will outrun many cars. This motor was great at 200,000. Minor repairs, water pump, battery, and alternator. I like your review on the honda hrv. Simple design, basic maintenance. That's all I want. I'm getting a Toyota Avalon since seeing your video. I would like a honda hrv though.
Manual transmission for me sir 👍enjoy your videos thank you 💯✊👍💪💪🏴
If you drive a car with manual transmission, never try to harm anything of it. It is supposed to last forever. No need for hybrid.
My new 2023 Honda Civic already has a recall for replacing the steering system. Sucks, Car has 300 miles on it. Lots of green trees for it being winter.
Just had to sell my 2022 civic SI. Oil dilution was insane. Drove it 1/2 highway 1/2 City.. Shame these GDI engines are prone to these problems
sadly everything with gdi is the same result in problems. I just want a kia soul with 4 speed auto trans and no gdi ffs
Theres NO CVT transmission. Its runs all electric up to a certain speed then the gas takes over via some sort of direct drive no gear changes.
220 kph is about 150mph. I can't see a CRV doing anything close to that.
I've been driving an 05 Subaru for over 10 years. In that time the only added expense caused by AWD was having to replace all 4 tires after a flat, once. In that time my turbo only cost me because I modded the car to take better advantage of it. Problems with AWD & turbos are over hyped.
The CVTs rev high to keep the engine in the power band when you're stomping on it. It's not slipping. It's just a weak engine in a heavy car.
i always told people if you buying first car for someone and they like honda i always say civic or accord....
now that everything is turbo up which makes no logical sense to me, i can't suggest people to buy them...
Spotty, which f150 engine is best ?
Life's just too short to drive boring cars Scotty.
I have both a temperature gauge and turn signal lights in my Altima 2.5S.
The oil dilution issues are insane and Honda’s not making an recalls or admitting the issue.
That's only on the 1.5 turbo.
They have improved, but I'd stick with the 2.0 non turbo.
My car had a manual transmission when I met my ex-wife. Tried teaching her how to drive it, but she never caught the bug and so we also standardized on automatics for about 14 years, until I couldn't resist and bought a Dodge SRT-4 back in 2009 (second owner) and still drive it to this day. She left shortly after that purchase... hopefully not because of it, lol... but hey, I get to drive what I like now with zero guilt!
Since the engine frequently turns off and turns on mostly at the optimal RPM/load only to charge the batteries, it should last longer than common ICE vehicles. The cost of the batteries would be a problem if you need to replace them today. However, like most technologies the cost will go down with increased production and better technologies, 8 - 12 years down the road.
This dude just put out a video saying honda is going to kill Toyota with this car
I have a 2001 ford escape xlt with just under 134k miles on it. It looks and runs great.
I can do 90% of the repairs on it myself and parts are plentiful and cheaper. It's my baby
I’ve got the 2023 Camry Hybrid which has a 2.5lt Atkinson cycle engine, along with the electric motor the torque they produce when both are driving the wheels is fantastic, there is plenty of torque at pretty much any speed to overtake if needed and the fuel mileage is marvellous.
I've built an Accord Si (2019 Accord Sport MT 1.5L) with some mods and tuning, about 33K miles, and she runs like a dream. Now, i am running premium fuel more than once a year, and I'm changing oil way more than I'm used to with my previous naturally aspirated honda engines, but i expect to get 200K+ miles. I'm watching out for oil delusion and head gasket trouble, but I'm happy with my family cool dad car that I also take to the track once a year!
Love his advice. I'm sold on Honda crv since I'm looking for a new car.
My brother leases the hybrid, loves it.
The crv hybrid engine is 2.0. Not a turbo.
He meant the sister model which is a turbo
@@frankm7707 Yes, I think you're right. Wasn't clear to me at the start, but cleared up by the end of his review.
@@brendanalexander7725 that’s Scotty being Scotty. He sometimes got too excited and talked a thousand miles an hour. 😂
I have Hondas for several years, with any issues before , but my 22 civic and my 23 hrv , both had issues like steering wheel play , brake boost failure, premature failure for climate control, windows regulator and fuel gauge, new Hondas are going down hill now
Oh no 😮. I really like the new crv and pilot. I'm also considering the Subaru Forester. Has Honda fixed everything for you without issue?
@@blissfuljoy6049 yes Honda fixed without a problem, but I’m concerned because two cars had a lot of problems in a short period of time, my intention was buy the cars after my lease expired, now I though in change to Toyota
Scotty, if that's the Hybrid Touring model, the seats are real leather.
18:48 the seagull to the noise. so funny
I only have Vehicles Pre 2003. I’m keeping them till I’m gone 😂. Maintenance and very few Repairs is way Cheaper than the Current payments on the Newer Vehicles for Sure.
Ain't that the truth. All these new mandated safety features and demanded luxuries, turned our current cars in driving condos with rapidly depreciated value. Electric scooters and bikes as well as old vehicles, becoming more and more appealing.
5:27 “listen! The angels are with us!”
My 3500 Chevy motor didn’t burn any oil. It leaked bad and just one gasket where the main leak was would cost $800 to fix. But the motor was 17 years old and had 180k and was still going strong
When I get behind the wheel of my car I drive just like Scotty XD!
We like diesel Hybrids in the U.K. my brother in law averages 60 mpg out 2021 BMW 2.0 L X3 which is the same as my 1.6 diesel Vauxhall Astra but his car is a lot bigger and heavier if you want economical motoring going out with diesel powered vehicles that’s why trucks and ships use diesel engines also they last a lot longer because they Rev lower and made stronger
Are those us gallons? 1 US gallon = 0.833 imperial gallons.
Run far, far way from the 1.5T. Injectors at 50K and 88K was head gaskets. The issues are all over the internet with that motor config.
Did Honda stop using gaskets? That is terrible if that is the case. My Subie is leaking out because they were too cheap to use gaskets. Never buying a Subie again. ;-/
Pretty much everybody has moved to using rtv/silicone.
@@nathanwhitman4699 truth. I always laugh whenever I hear people make blanket statements like the OP and its basically industry standard.
"listen... THE ANGELS ARE WITH US!!" lol
Love my 2016 Scion iM 6SP with 60k with the 1.8. Fun car to drive for sure. Great handling
Just bought a CRV hybrid Sport L. Really enjoying it.
All new cars don't come with an electronic parking break. I just bought a 2024 Toyota Camry that has a manual foot-operated parking brake. I wonder why Toyota stopped using the electronic parking brake?
Everyone makes more out of this CVT revving up than there is to it. It revves for 10 to 15 seconds then the rpm's drop to lower rpm's than a geared transmission and you get a quiet smooth experience with better gas mileage.
Got a 2012 v6 auto with 34k miles and I don’t think there’s a better year for for Honda. The 2013 and later models all removed the 1-3 gears you could use in autos but I will say the 2015-16 trim has to be the meanest look accords have
He brings up dual clutch transmission, nice untill the clutches wear out and you have to have it fixed.xd
$48,000 for a Honda? ho lee fook!! I despise GM, but you can buy a new Cadillac CT5 Premium Luxury for $48,000. hell, a CT4 is only $35,000. they might not hold up for 300,000+ the way a Honda MIGHT. but if you buy a new vehicle every 10 years or so, I'd shop around.
theres no point to have a vehicle for over 10 years any longer. Too much regulations like vehicle inspections or smog checks bi-annually these days. All planned
People hate turbos because people have no idea how to take care or their turbos or they mod their car and complain about reliability. Turbo’d engines will last 200k miles if you know the car should warm up a few minutes before driving it like normal, or should baby it until temps are normal until driving normal. Manufacturers don’t go over this because your basic person don’t care to do these things and they’re essential for the longevity of turbos
Scotty! You are not a cheapskate;you are FRUGAL and there is NOTHING wrong with being frugal! :-)
