It sucks, the engine is great though. Mine is at 230,000 kms and it's not burning any oil, pulling strong, not even smoking at redline like most older engines do

My four banger Accords tranny waa rebuilt 3 times in a span of 4-5 months. Tranny had a one year warranty so that was nice, other then that, it's much of a hassle because the car still ends up struggling to change gears and shifts were never smooth, and for cold starts, the tranny struggled even more

On the bright side, rebuilt only cost me $1300 with some intense Indian bargaining
