Re: Honda Quality? Not so much anymore it seems...

I have a 04 value package. I bought it off the showroom floor with 6 miles on it. I now have almost 150,000. 5sp manual. I've never had any major problem with it. I was having some firing issues, but I believe that has been corrected (never trust Discount's reccomended gap). I have a vibration problem that I am trouble shooting. I believe it to be suspension related (bad struts, alignment, or even really bad bent wheel). I have tried my best to keep up with maintainence and when I used to let my ex drive it she would give it hell.

Thanks for the advice but FYI I didn't beat the crap out of it. I was rear ended in 03 and hit a deer with 1000k on the motor. Otherwise it was babied.
