For God's sake, just tell me, yes or no for 2022 CR-V!?? (1.5T fwd)
Thank you sir.
@@albertol2670 NO
i have a 2003 Honda Accord with the exact same 2.4l 4cyl. It currently has 351,544 odo reading. Still runs strong and gets 33 mpg. Ive takent his car everywhere from ohio to florida keys. Ive also owned 2003 Accord with the v6 6 speed combo sold it after fixing relay problems causing motor to die while cruising. It was too sporty for my needs. Keep up the videos Scotty enjoy every one!!
@@albertol2670 yes just make sure to use the oil that scotty recommends for those engines to avoid the oil dilution. I think Scotty will also recommend the fwd and not the awd because it may break dowen and give our problems in the future, and it reduces gas milage, unless you REALLY need it, and on a crv you probably wont go off roading
Hondas SUCK. Toyotas all day everyday
those k24 engines (civic si, accord, crv etc) are some of the most durable engines honda ever made. they can handle power and stay reliable. one of the best engines ever made 👍🏽
Actually there's plenty of issues with them. Bad piston rings and vtec actuator. Honda had to extend the warranty to 150k miles. Do not buy a Honda with this engine.
@@Brocko2891 my K24 had an actuator failure at 165k and it’s a 2017. Currently at 186k and no more issues.
@@Brocko2891 despite these issues they're still plenty reliable. So many vehicles with this engine are still on the road to this day. My mom had an 05 Accord manual with the 5 speed manual with over 300,000 miles on it and still ran like a champ. Unfortunately someone hit her at a red light and totalled it.
You gotta be super religious with the oil changes cause if you don't change the oil the timing guides will where out badly
@@byronwav that's my current car
That was one of the cleanest cars ever on here. Even the engine was spotless.
Mine is just like it, 135,000 miles and garage kept. Accord Coupe. Try to find anything new as simple and robust - good luck...
How do they keep it that clean.
@@hybrid.roodragon1226 Engine bay cleaner :) Maybe every month or so? :D
Honda boy feeling a little but hurt eh 🤣
@@hybrid.roodragon1226 Front grill does not pass the road grime, living in SoCal just some Armor All on a rag every year. Mine's 2006.
My 2006 Honda Accord EX 2.4 cylinder 5-speed manual transmission has 241,000 and is still going strong!
🙂👍
K series is the goat of all engines
@@marfigue777 diesel engines are naturally more reliable
@@dragospahontu I have a Mercedes 300D also, it's 40 years old and still runs like a champ and gets 27 mpg with over 525k 👍
I’ve got the 2013 version 💪
@@dragospahontu that is true, but you are limited on the selection of diesel cars.
That guy obviously takes care of his car. Engine compartment looks cherry!
"I just hear normal noises, I don't hear any groaning"
Mother-in-Law not in the rear then?
Might seem so, but washing the engine compartment on old cars is doing more harm than good. For old cars just wipe, this looks like a high pressure or steam clean. That's a NO, for old cars.
@@ericb950 You're making a lot of assumptions here. Clearly the vehicle doesn't have any electrical or engine problems. So what ever cleaning method he used, I think it's safe to say he did it right.
@@ericb950 For me, I WD40 everything and wipe it down. Works pretty good.
I'll wash out the channels around the hood every year to get rid of pollen/leaves and such.
@@ericb950
if an engine doesn't leak it stays clean for a long time.
Hondas are my number one choice, with Toyota second. I had a '97 Accord that I squeezed 595,000 miles out of, same engine, same transmission. My '08 Civic currently has 250,000 miles on it. Toyotas are good, too. I had a '74 Corolla stick shift, that I parked for 2 years. Then, it took 10 minutes to start, I filled it with gas, and drove 170 miles.
Wow!
At that point a honda with that much mileage is a death trap because the body rots throughout, you'll notice at the time of impact they go like an onion peeling ..
@@karlwalter2242 only if there’s salt in the area. In Seattle they have no rust :)
I had a 2003 Honda Accord that had almost 500,000 miles on her before she was totaled in an accident (someone rear ended her). Excellent condition for the age and mileage. I swear by Honda products. She was an excellent car. Accident happened in November 2018.
@@NicholasAndre1 Seattle's on the water. How is there no rusting there?
I have the 2006 Accord 4 cylinder in dessert mist colorway for a year. Now has 460,000 km and still running strong. Keeping it forever.
You're a blessing for car owners Scotty!
First engine I have ever owned that I have stopped an oil leak, first engine I worked on myself, first car to work on too, honda odyssey! Driven from one end to Australia and back and she still starts up every time. Love it

She was an excellent car. Accident happened in November 2018. Also still had the original engine and transmission.
My '04 only made it to 130k before the transmission died.
@@MattPSU02 Did you ever change the transmission filter and fluid in it ?
I had Acura TL and Acura MDX and they both needed new transmissions.
@@frandanco6289 YES
Transmissions only make it to 500K when the driver knows how to baby a transmission. Early transmission failures in older Honda’s generally only happen to people who are rough on them. This excludes those newer CVT’s, those things are expected to fail and none of them will make it to 500K on all original parts.
I got 240,000km (150,000miles) on my 2005 Accord V6 with 6spd. the V6 is great and super reliable i have never had any issues in my ownership of 10 yrs. If you're in the market for a older V6 Honda/Acura i highly recommend getting it in a manual, you just cant go wrong imo.
Love my K24 in my 2007 Accord. 640,000 miles and still going strong!
I have a 07 accord K24 auto trans with 260k and it is burning oil and has a suspicious whining noise that is consistent until highway speeds. Did I make a good purchase? 😬
@@simonsays582 unsure what the whining noise is, could be a number of things. I had a whining noise coming from my power steering pump. I got an o-ring from the dealership for a few dollars and replaced it myself in a matter of minutes. Mine burns about a quart every 1,000 miles like clockwork and it’s been that way for years. Top it off and it’ll last a lonnggggg time.
Well it burns a lot, then again I bought it off some 19yr old girl and she didn't do any maintenance. Only a couple oil changes for 60k miles driven. Looked at the PCV valve it was ok but hose was almost completely pinched off.
@@simonsays582 it is fairly common for the oil control rings on these to get gummed up over time. I changed the PCV valve on mine and it made no difference.
@@TheThirdeYe1337 and that's like a engine rebuild isn't it?
I have an '07 Accord with 222,000 miles that looks nearly identical to this one. It still runs perfectly! No issues whatsoever. Gotta love Honda.
different engine (techincally), plus your car has a facelift
359000 runs good lol
I love my '93 Del Sol Si, 1.6 VTEC 5 speed (original owner). Only 80,000 and in almost perfect shape. Just changed timing belt and water pump. Keeping it forever.
3000 miles per year??
D16z6?
About 1 month ago, I called my Mechanic and informed him that I had found a 2004 Honda Accord V6. Excellent condition interior and exterior. He told me not to buy it and instead get the 2005 Honda Civic Si Hatchback EP3.
I got the Hatchback EP3. LOVE IT !
My 2003 2.4 Accord with the 5MT is still going strong at 171,000 miles. Unfortunately the body has a few dents from parking lots, Colorado mountain roads, and my mom backing into the driver side quarter panel. Mechanically it's great, hoping to get at least 300,000 out of it.
You will no problem. The k24 is a stout engine. Just keep with the oil changes and you can't lose.
😂
I used to have a 03 4cly had 220k miles when I got rid of it still ran great, now I drive a 05 4 cly everyday driver with 188k on it
171k miles is barely broken in for one of those!
@@tenhundredkills good to hear
I can agree that the 2.4 DOHC K-Series engines is one of Honda's best engines. I have a 2005 Acura TSX that has 197k miles on it and it still runs great. Just keep the maitenance up on it!
I got a 06 accord with 280,000 miles on it. Most luxurious and smoothest car I’ve ever owned. Mileage is great and I haven’t had many problems other than oil and rusting
Still have my 2006 Accord VP. Did the oil changes, tranny fluid, and drive it gently. It only has 152k and runs great. The K24 2.4 VTec engine is a trusty workhorse.
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.
I got a 2008 Accord Coupe with this same engine but 5 speed stick shift with 198,000 miles, drives like new, sounds like new, never breaks down.. love it
Lucky to have a 2003 Accord Coupe with 83,000 miles and a 4 cylinder. Great car, new tires, rear brakes and regular oil changes. Just as good as a new one!
267,000? That's at half-life!
I was about say must’ve been token to the grocery store or church 3x a week
Half Life Opposing force?
That was my favorite Accord! My friend had the v6 model though, and it purred so nicely… but I know the i4 was peppy enough. Definitely quicker than my brand new hyundai
@@allentoyokawa9068 Indeed! They just put out another one today for a windshield that can detach. My sister bought a 15' sonata and I bought a '15 Accord Coupe V6. Her car has had over 13 recalls and she's put over 6k in it for repairs not related to maintenance. My car has had 3 recalls and ZERO problems in the exact sane time period. In 3 recalls they replaced my starter for free as well as my battery right at 35k miles and re flashed my fuel delivery system which I was not having any issueswith at all. I've done nothing but maintenance and it runs las silky smooth as the day I bought it 6 and a Half years ago! Her car has fallen apart, runs terribly, and sounds awful and is worth nothing. I advised her to not get it but she did. I also told her to get rid of it before 100k because it will absolutely start to fall apart then but she didn't. Live and learn. Her next car will be a Corolla camry a civic or Accord. My other sister drives a 16' Honda CRV that I got her znd my mom is on her 7th Lexus ES. Currently a 19' model and it's the 1st one built in KENTUCKY! All others were built in Japan abd there us a huge difference in quality! 6 previous were super ultra solidly built and no recalls and this one has had 3 already. There is something to be said about MADE IN JAPAN!!
@@gabevillarreal96 she will get many more!
@@gabevillarreal96 dads got a 2018 sorrento and at 60km AWD broke, trunk latch broke and key fob doesn't work, sad
Get you a Element!
@@user-dx3ej8vk2i yep Kia and Hyundai are junk. Had a 6spd manual Forte I bought at 42k and drove till 85k then got rid of it. It gave me no problems but I know they were coming. Plus shortly after I got rid of it the recall for the 2.4 engine came out. Like when they would light on fire and such lol. Glad I got rid of it. Back to Honda Toyota or Fords only. Fords have been good to me as my Frontier has been too. That's the only Nissan I would buy.
I have a 2011 Honda accord with the vtec engine . Great engine . 125k miles on it . Oil change every 2.5k transmission fluid change every 20k . I put in a half a quart of marvel mystery oil when I change the oil . Its runs so smooth . Very quiet . Akebono brake pads . It should last another 20 years . I was able to get 480k on my last Honda , a 1983 Honda prelude with a 5 speed manual transmission .
My 2013 Honda accord ex-l v6 has 230k miles. Runs like a Swiss watch. I average a consistent 35-37 mpg on hwy doing 80mph. Otherwise average 27mpg mixed. Pretty damn good imo. Recently bought a 2018 Honda accord 2.0 sport. I'm averaging 32-33 mpg hwy doing 80mph. Real world numbers folks!
Hey scotty, I've been watching your videos for about a year now. Started sending them to my relatives, they like you to. In live in canton,ohio. I have a 2007,Ford explorer sport trac. It has over 255,284 miles. I bought it used a couple of years ago. It runs great.
I live in canton too!
I know a guy that has about 300k on his Sport Trac, Apparently they were good as well.
My co-worker has a 2002 Ford Explorer with 379,000 miles. Original engine and transmission. He bought it brand new.
I’ve had my 2003 Honda Accord 2.4L 4 cylinder for almost 18 years now. I get 👀 when I tell people how long I’ve had it. Almost 240,000 miles on it and still going. Just need to watch my oil levels as it consumes oil because of almost 80 miles a day commuting to work and home. Best car I’ve ever owned and gonna try to keep it for 20 years.
Oil burners
@@ChicanoOne760 ha…it is but better than a car payment. Still runs smooth too.
It might be something pretty easy like valve guides replacement to stop the oil consuming... If it not and its the piston rings, that is a lot more work and $$ but it is not ever as much as if you had a bigger engine...
I have a friend who has sold used Honda and Acura vehicles for over 40 years and he is driving a beautiful, older Civic that has 640,248 miles on the odomoter.. I sat in the car and pulled up that odometer, and there it was!!!! These cars can go a long time if you keep up on the oil and filter...
@@frandanco6289 the 2008-2012 2k4 engine has a class action lawsuits for defective piston rings causing excessive oil consumption
Maybe replace all gaskets, my Buick was leaking so I replaced the engine gasket set and it is great now, no leak whatsoever.
That Accord looks like a car I used to have. 2004 LX, 2.4L white with ivory interior. Good car. Lost it in a flood. Couldn’t be salvaged. Got a ‘15 Accord EXL, same engine and colors. After 19 months of ownership I have only driven 8K miles (working at home). Car has only 66K miles on it. TPMS driving me crazy though.
I love my Accords! One just hit 223,000 miles and the other just hit 297,000 miles. Keep going down the road
Keep the car for sure! Especially with the market we are in now. Great Content Scotty always 🙏
Have 2007 Accord, built in Marysville plant, still rolling strong at 176 k garaged from day one in dry Arizona, 2.4 PZEV, auto trans, 36 mpg, after 176k my behind fits well into the drivers seat, oh yeah I've also got a 2007 Honda Odyssey Exl, with 184k been coast to coast many times,just got to raise em right, my buddy whose a shop Forman at a Honda dealer,says just keep the fluids in them and maintain them, so far enjoying the rides,always love Scottys input,been watching him for years, I've also driven Toyota's over 200k ,when I bought the Accord I also looked at the Camry,however the Accord won,because it felt sporter, and more fun to drive, and is still fun to drive,
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.
Ive got an 05 Acura TL with the 6 speed manual trans . I love it .
I’ve heard about those tl always having crack dash
Used to have a 06 Acura v6 with 240k till someone rear ended me
Thank you Scotty! I love your show!
I had a 2004 CR-V (the only car I ever bought new). Put 225,000 miles on it, and then it got totaled being in the middle of a 3-car accident. 😟😢 I now have a 2014 CR-V that I bought used. Currently has 147,000 miles on it. One thing about certain Honda’s in and around the mid-teens years is that they had issues with the VTC Actuator (causing random brief grinding sound upon a cold startup in the morning). Got it replaced via recall issue (twice), but I still occasionally get that startup sound (especially in colder weather). It also has other ticky-tack issues that are annoying, but it still runs well and gives great mileage (I average 18,000-20,000 per year on it due to my daily commute). Will hold onto it as long as I can. When the time comes, I’ll bump up to a used Pilot. But that won’t be for another 50,000-100,000 miles. 😎 This is my fifth Honda over the last 30 years. With most Honda’s and Toyota’s you can’t miss, unless it’s a used one that was poorly maintained or mistreated.
I have the same Accord. I rented the new V6 mustang and what slow dog that was. I couldn’t wait to get back to my peppy and comfy accord.
I have the v6 accord and it is fun
J series V6 Hondas are known to be bulletproof . One of the most reliable engines out there . All it needs is a regular oil changes and valve lash adjustments every 100k miles .

Get a 10.5 android tablet with climate control..
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
Keep up the good work Scotty.

What do you think of the Honda CRV with 1.5L engine? It's a fairly good size vehicle. Is this engine good enough for such weight?
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.
Did you hear about that lady that bought a brand new Tesla and it was delivered without brake calipers installed. She took it in and has been waiting over a month and still not fixed and ETA keeps getting pushes back. Hahaha
I just heard about that on another you tube channel. lol. That's just stupid.
Thanks Scotty that was very informative .
Thank you for the video brother
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.
how many speakers?
dont need traction control anyway xD
That, my friend, is a keeper!!
I remember adjusting my the valves on air cooled VW engines and the legendary Mopar slant 6. Easy Peasy!!
Hi Scotty! What's your opinion on the spin off segment that is popular in Asian countries? It's like a hybrid between MPVs and an SUV. These cars are 7-seaters with 1.5L petrol engine usually giving only 120PS and 130-140 NM Torque coupled to a 4 Speed automatic transmission or a CVT. Examples of this are the Toyota Rush, Mitsubishi Xpander, Honda BR-V.
“But he’s gotta buy another car!” Lmao! I literally laughed out loud
You can’t beat any K series engine. One of the best engines out there.
😅 I see what you did there
@@aukodaR18A2 is also a reliable engine. Just bought Civic Tourer European market with low mileage. Looks and runs like new although almost 10 years old. No more turbo charged german made crap for me.
Even if that car needed two wheel bearings, I would not get rid of it. It's had the valves adjusted and the only code is a dummy abs code. Definitely a keeper!
Hello love learning things from you Thank you
hello and thank you!
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!
And you can easily install a backup camera!
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.

Best automotive decision I've ever made.
LOL
beautfiul
not the best decsion for europe and new co2 emission laws.
05 Honda Element over 300k Miles . I change the oil every 3 months 👍🏼 what a great car .. My next car will be another used element AWD hopefully manual shift 😎 great in a ft of snow with aggressive tires.
Hey Scotty so I was looking at a 09 pilot but what other suggestions do you prefer for SUVs I live in Chicago where I have to deal with snow any suggestions?
What should you look out for when buying a The K24A engines made by Honda in a 2005 Honda Element ? also how do you properly clean the K24A VTEC system?
i miss my 07 accord even more now
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.
What's your dream car?
Scottie what type of machine are you using in this video to run qll the checks on this car. Model? Make? Any upgrades? And rough price? Thanks for your thoroughly expained and highly educational videos. They mean a whole lot to m
good video subbed
That's actually a really good engine just always got to check ur engine oil ..
And change the timing belt every 80-100k miles
@@Marcus-ou4vy Those engines have timing chains.
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.
I remember driving up the AlCan, where 40 below is not particularly cold--think 70 or 80 below. There were posted warnings not to get onto the road in the winter without a heat source in addition to the engine (I think the signs said there were inspection points during the winter).
I have that exact motor in my CRV and I love it. How many kilometres until you check the valves in those Motors?
If I was a mechanic... I would watch all your videos... great insight! thanks!!!
My apocalypse looking 2005 Honda Accord EX 4 cylinder 265K will still go coast to coast no problem!
I got a 05 Accord LX 4 cly with 188k miles great car, used to have a 04 ex 4cly with 220k
HI Scotty, My sister has a2014 Kia optima slx, she had the valve gaskets replaced, but now realized there is no acceleration with the turbo. What do u think she should do??
Scotty my newly purchased 2013 Honda Accord with 73000 miles on it jerks at low RPMs and sometimes very badly.. Scan tool only detects problem with Vehicle Stability Assist and power steering. What could be the reason for the Jerking... Daniel from Ghana
Hello Scotty kind regards from Bogota Colombia
hello!
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
Nah my TL always outlasts our RSX and prelude. J engines never have problems lol
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
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.
K24 has 3 class action lawsuits
Transmission issues were only Present with 03 and 04 models V6
yes, the owner should keep the car. I have one and looks as good as that one. I'm not getting rid of mine. I appreciate your honesty and knowledge.
I have a 2017 CRV LX with a 2.4 L an d CVT MADE in Canada what is your opinion about Honda made in Canada
I have a 2009 TSX with a K24Z3 engine in it (very similar to this one) and it has 125k on it and runs like a dream! Plan on supercharging it this summer tho cause it's very slow lol.
Drove my 04 Honda Accord 4 banger from Queens, NY to Orwell, NY back & forth and all I need is 2 full tank of gas & an oil change. Love the car. LOVE IT! 181K going strong!
V6 honda
Honda J30A engine for Honda Accord for years 2003, 2004 & 2005. ... which returns for a second-straight year on the Ward's 10 Best Engines list
I have a 2017 Accord. I noticed a little droning from the engine when coming to a stop. Is that normal. The only other 4 cylinder I've had is a 2000 Ford Focus ZTS.
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.
WRONG Is the V6 J30A made in the world's best top 10 engines ever made
@@jay-dt3zq What's wrong? you seem to be agreeing with me....
They are hella fast bro I agree my two friends had one v6 j series Honda Accord my other friend had a 350z the Honda always beat the z
My 2009 CRV has that same engine
this was my first car. I got it used for free from my gfs dad. My gfs dad drove it, then my gf and her sister drove it (learned to drive on it) and it was dented but drove BEAUTIFULLY. I got a 2012 GLI after that and missed the honda everyday. Ditched the GLI for a shitty civic and love this car way more than i ever loved the VW
If a vehicle shakes at a standstill when it’s put in gear (auto trans) and the break is depressed what does that indicate, generally speaking?
My friend got a 2004 Accord 2.4 manual 233,000 miles no problems
Hey Scotty,
I've got a 2012 Honda Civic EX-L 4 Cylinder with just over 60,000 miles I bought with 48,000 miles for $10,000 two years ago. I noticed this winter, there's been some vibration which feels like it's coming from the front wheels. I notice this both at highway speeds and less so at city speeds. Would this likely be a tire alignment issue, or are there other simple tests I can do to diagnose what could be the problem?
My thought would be that the ice and snow on the road could have led to a misalignment from the unintentional skidding/drifting.
It is normal for Honda. They're not the most refined engines
Vibration at 50-60 mph. would most likely be a tire balance issue.
Thank you guys for your quick responses! I'll see if I can get it taken care of soon!
Rotate your tires, front to back first
have your tires rotated & rebalanced
My sister 2003 honda accord had very low engine oil , i was surprised its still running
