Hey all,
My '01 EX sedan has developed a strange problem in the last few weeks. While cruising (that is, not accelerating or coasting) in any gear, between 2000 and 3000 rpm, the engine feels like it has a miss. It can be slight to severe, and sometimes it doesn't happen at all. It idles fine, and runs fine if I hold out a gear and run the engine above 3000 rpm. The dealer couldn't find anything, and we finally just decided to change the plugs and that didn't fix it. Wondering if anyone else has had this problem. I've got 99000 on it, and I'm still pretty happy. FWIW, I've had the radio replaced in the first month, the seat was replaced (before the TSB about the bushing), the front window guides need to be lubricated every year or so, and it rattles and buzzes like a banshee.
