i just got a CL and it has 93k on it, how much is too much? i know it is a honda and they run forever. just wondering.

 

if you keep up with your maintenance and oil changes itll run forever, short of the tranny which is a piece of shit... so far i havent had problems i bought mine with 103k miles on it, its at 123k now and i havent had a problem.... yet..

 

I just got mine and it is 170,541 (just went to costco). Timing belt, wires all mfg in 97. WIl change them on monday. never been in the shop I guess

 

wait the belt is mfg in 01

 

depending if its auto or manual its a piece of shit. honda manuals are bullettproof. yea i bought my 2.2 5speed at 103 and now im at 107. but i need to replace my IAC because when i put it into nuetral its idle is very inconsistent.

 

idk, shit tons, f you take care of it you can go to prolly 500.000 or more

 

i drive mine every day and i have turned 207K it has a little miss right now but still awesome

 

forget my previous comment i forgot we were talking about a 3.0.

 

i hope my 3.0 can last as long as yous guys.. im only @ 65k on my 97.. im praying if the tranny blows, it goes in the next 2 yrs or so i beleive i have a warranty

 

200,000 miles is just broken into.

 

 

196,000 miles here on a '00 TL and lots of mods and hard driving, on second tranny but engine and rest of car perfect.....car was mine but recently sold to my brother.

 

97 cl . . . .187,000 . . .and still kickin ass . . .

 

thats what i wanna hear.

 

I say buy a spare tranny off of Cocoa and you should be fine..

 

I always say that 100k is a broken in honda motor, you can easily get at least 300k out of em. Although, I had to replace my tranny at 87K so we'll see how many 100's of thousands I can do now.

 

About another 30K before it goes again 2.X>3.0

 

F*ck you

 

 

haha, there is an accord at this dealership that sells hondas, and they have it in the showroom not for sale to prove hondas last forever, it has 700000 miles and still in perfect condition

 

162k on a 97 2.2 manual, original clutch. These cars are amazing

 

cant say im to high,

got my 99 with 27k on her and now its at 43k....God willing she keeps going. Im debating once my tranny craps out to fix it or go for the new TL A-spec

 

I just purchased a 97 CL with 106k miles on it. I love this car. It was a leased car before I bought it and so far its all good. I will baby it of course and I will update this thread as time goes on.
I do about 300 miles a week. I hit a piece of tire the other day and will have to get an alignment, but other than that, it is perfect!

 

97 3.0 with 161K on orig tranny and I have towed motorcycle trailers, uhaul trailers, a double trailer with two Waverunners, and so on. I hope to get another 10-20k out of the tranny.

 

98 with 165k and still going strong! 2nd tranny though

 

3.0 only comes in auto

 

Hmm... I've got a 1999 2.3 CL, with about 75,000 miles on it... However the engine is burning about a quart or more of oil a month... Any suggestions? My mechanic told me that its best to use the engine until it dies, then replace it... Your comments and advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

97 3.0. Dad was first owner, got it with 15 miles on it. Passed it to me just under 130k (like 129.5), Now its at 131k and still on its first tranny, never had engine trouble.

 

300,000 miles

 

it's too much when you start usuing duct tape to hold the doors closed, otherwise, let her run till she dies.

 

99 3.0, with only 66700 on it, it's still good2go

 

nothing is too much for our cars - EVAR

 

i got 196000km and its still going strong

 

lol.. mine is still running strong at 245,000 mil. window motor just went bad..other then that i'm very happy with it . 97 3.0 orig. tranny

 

you sir, are a very lucky man...go buy a lottery ticket or something

 

 

If the 2.2/2.3 shares engines or transmissions with the 97 Accords, someone I know has a 97 Accord that they've beat the crap out of for 170,000 miles and the engine and transmission WILL NOT DIE. The rest of the car is falling apart from the rough treatment, but the mechanicals are bulletproof.

 

got mine in july 04 at 43k. and now ive got 110k and all ive had to do so far is oil changes, put gas in it, and change a couple belts. on the other hand ive had to replace the window motor once and its going out again. i seafoamed but thats not really required. um i think thats about it. oh yeah and i had to replace a rear bumber and rear taillight, but that was not my fault.

 

112K and some change... I figure this car will run till I die... provided I take care of her. I figured even if I decide to get another car, I will keep the Mistress as a project car. That was my original plan for my Teg, but thanks to a shit ass driver, I nolonger have that car. It was a 91 with 193K on her. No problems.

 

1999 2.3 manual...126,000....still missing oil ..but still running good.
