How many miles does a honda accord last up to?
I had a 1989 Accord way back, it had already 130,xxx miles on it when I bought it. I drove it for another 100,000miles for less than 10 years until I had problems with smog, then I just donated it to charity. (It was still running) No major engine problems, just the usual wear and tear, Honda's would last forever as long as you maintain it well.
How many miles does a Honda Accord usually go?
How many miles does a Honda Accord usually go… well, Honda is generally a more reliable car than most American models, but with the appropriate maintenance, any car will be able to be driven quite a distance. If you where to the maintenance schedule and use a trusted, honest and reliable mechanic, you would be very pleased with the Accord, as you would be with any other car. Honda has a good name because they build a reliable vehicle. Although it is a machine, and things wear out over time, it may be that you could purchase this car and have no problems with it for the next 20 years. Oils, brakes, suspension, steering components, a starter, a belt here and there, light bulbs and an alternator may be all that need to be changed in the future, but one really can't know. You may drive or 100,000 miles and have it break down, you may drive it 600,000 miles, and never have a problem with it!
Is a 2003 Honda Accord EX-V6 A Sedan with 97k miles on it a good deal for $8995?
It's ok deal. At this price, it's not one that you need to break your CD and BUY right away. If you like the car, and it look better than average, ask the owner (if private), if he/she would allow you to take it to a mechanic for a full inspection. Inspections by independent own garages usually runs about $60 to $150. Call one that specializes in Hondas and ask if they can do that for you. An inspecion will get you the peace of mind, and you may be able to use it as leverage to get a better deal, should the inspection yield some untold and foreseeing problems in the near future. I have an 03 Honda Accord EX-L V6 w/ Navi, and I had to change the transmission at 53K, and the new rebuilt transmission developed at whine at 95K. Other than that, it's a solid driver. If you Google 2003 Honda Accord Transmission problems, you'll get a lot of returns. Read some of them, and you'll see why a $60 inspection (or even $100, forgot how much they charge) is well worth it.
How many miles is the average lifespan for a Honda Civic or Accord? What do you think about these cars?
Any car, properly maintained, can run for millions of miles. Parts of the engine, if not the entire engine will need to be replaced eventually. The car you are looking at could die tomorrow for all we know. I'd say if they made it to 228k miles, they've maintained it well, but you'll have to continue maintaining it as well to make it keep going.
How many miles will the average, well maintained Honda Accord put on before "dying"?
All my Hondas have at least 230,000 miles on them... the most reliable one has almost 260,000 miles on it. The least reliable has 230,000 and, believe it or not, it's on it's original clutch.... go figure. I've carried around a complete clutch kit waiting for that damn thing to fail but it hangs on and on and on. Obviously, it's my driving habits... All kidding aside, Hondas or any other car for that matter will last as long as the frame, body and interior stay together. The rest are merely replaceable parts. Your budget is the only limiting factor and how long you let little problems go. If you fix a problem the moment it comes up, you can assess it's value individually and easily claim it is much more favorable to fix that problem than to take on a car payment... So, the topic becomes whether or not your monthly repair bill equals a car payment or not. That, and the condition of the body and the interior... I added the frame because it's the backbone of the car and if it's in bad shape, you can throw all the money at it you want and it will still collapse one day even if it looks like the day it was born. Chevrolet understands this concept well and has engineered their interiors to disintegrate somewhere near 100,000 miles. Sure, it may run great but it's going to look like hell... by design. Regardless of how well a car runs, if you are embarrased by driving it, you will replace it... hopefully, with another chevy. My Honda interiors don't seem to turn to dust from the sun rays and, depending on the area you live, they don't rust out so bad. Ok, I live in Texas and am spoiled by the longevity of cars... I do like not having a car payment though and it seems, with infrequent repair as it is needed, my Hondas will continue to be as reliable as they are known to be. You can bet that when this Honda gives up the ghost (I'm sure it will be due to the expensive nature of fixing dual carburetors (2.0 S model)) I will be replacing it with another Honda. The automatic transmission is your weakest link... pamper it.
How Long will my 2000 Honda Accord Last?
This is a good question because you're at a crucial point with your Accord as far as milage goes. THE FIRST THING YOU SHOULD DO is get your timing belt changed. The "timing belt" is a very important part to keep tabs on since it keeps "the timing" of your engine in sync. Most Honda's need this service around 100,000 miles because belts get old, crack, and will eventually break. YOU DO NOT want the timing belt to break while your driving, because in most cars, this will COMPLETELY RUIN THE ENGINE. I reccommend getting the other belts changed as well because ther'es no additional labors charges, meaning you'll only have to pay for the extra belts. IF YOU DO THIS to your accord when needed, it will easly last you another 100,000 miles, granted you take care of your car. Other things your car could need is a fuel injector cleaning and transmission oil change, but these are minor repairs compaired to you timing belt. Depending on where you go to have your car worked on, changing the timing belt with the rest of the other belts will cost you anywhere from $300 to $800, and is worth every penny if you're going to keep your accord a very long time, good luck.
What oil do I put in a 2002 honda accord?
This is right from the owner's manual: Recommended Engine Oil: API Premium grade 5W-20 detergent oil (see page 250 & 251 of the owner's manual). https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/pubs... Personally I use full synthetic but it is not required.
How many years will a honda accord last me???
Take care of the car with routine maintenance and it will take care of you! On this generation (6th gen 1998-2002) the timing belt and water pump life is recommend change every 105k miles, (I do 100k) but if you keep up with the oil changes and keep an eye on the fluid level this car will go a long way! 1994 Accord 394,000 miles still on the road today 1998 Accord 180,000 miles daily driver I know a person who has an 1986 Accord which broke 500,000 miles and its still going!!
How many quarts of oil for 02 honda accord coupe EX V-6?
4.6 US qt (4.4 , 3.9 Imp qt) [4.5 quarts for the 4 cylinder] API Premium grade 5W-20 detergent oil DON'T use 5W-30 or 10W-30. Use what Honda recommends. However you can use 0W-20 if you wish. Page 249 of the owner's manual says this: 5W-20 oil is formulated for year-round protection of your Honda, to improve cold weather starting, and to help your engine use less fuel. If 5W-20 oil is not available, a 5W-30 oil may be used. However, it should be replaced with 5W-20 at the next oil change. See https://techinfo.honda.com/rjanisis/pubs... Thicker is Better Myth The reason that oil viscosities have gotten thinner is because bearing clearances have become smaller. Using thicker oils will interfere with oil flow and the oil pressure will increase. In a worn engine it may be okay to increase the viscosity of the oil because the bearing clearances have become larger. 102,000 miles isn't all that worn for a Honda. We use 5W-20 in our '02 CR-V with 108,000 miles on it but plan on switching to Mobil 1 0W-20 at the next oil change and we use 0W-30 in our '96 Accord wagon. Neither vehicle consumes oil between changes. We change the oil per Honda's recommendations at 10,000 miles in our CR-V and at 7,500 miles in our Accord. Honda engineers know a lot more about this than the average Joe, so follow what Honda recommends. .
