Nicky Pass has a new respect for Honda!
As in my previous thread....my check engine light came on. I went to AutoZone and pulled the code and its the EGR valve. My friend works at a Honda dealer...Honda offered an emission warranty up to 150K miles, and mhe ran my VIN and my car qualified for the warranty. My 1996 Accord with 105K miles goes to the dealer on Wednesday to get the EGR Valve, and few other emission things fixed, and he thinks I can get an injector cleaning and tune up...under warranty!
....Thank you Honda!

TL no more!
Heh...actually, I think they have to because they didn't meet the government's OBDII requirements. That is why Honda, and some other companies, are required to extend their emissions warranty.

It was an EPA recall on '96 and '97 Honda and Acura models. And only on certain ones. You lucked out thanks to some bureacratic screwup
