What kind of transmission does a Honda Accord have?
Originally I really wanted to get a 1998-2002 Accord coupe with a V6 but after reading about reliability problems with the transmission I decided on the 4-cyl model with a standard transmission. I swear, the manual transmission made this Accord about as fast as my 1997 Camry which has a V6.
What was the damage to my Honda Accord?
I hit a curb turning into the Burger King near Fry’s Electronics in Renton which resulted in $2k worth of suspension damage. The previous owner had a very large person sitting in the passenger’s seat on a consistent basis. This not only caused the seat to go flat but the heavy person also damaged the frame of the seat.
Is the Honda Accord a good car to buy?
My Accord was a decent car but it developed quite a few problems once it went past the 210k mile mark. If you’re looking for one, make sure to do your research to figure out how to buy a car that wasn’t abused or owned by someone that really shouldn’t touch a car.

What are the issues with a 2001 Honda Accord?
The Climate Control module broke and it needed to be replaced. At 235k miles the Timing belt service was due which is over $1k, new tires were about a year away, the issues with the climate control module, parking brake, and window needed be be addressed. This was cutting it close to $3k already.
