Hello ladies and gentlemen!
I am acquiring a used (duuhh) 2004 7th gen Accord Euro (CL9..??), the test drive was brief but the car was very smooth and has mint bodywork.
My question to you all is this;
The engine is almost at the 170,000kms mark, the car has always been serviced on time and ALWAYS at a licenced Honda garage (seems legit!), how hard could I be on the car without damaging the engine?
I'm just not sure if hitting 7,200 while VTEC will really hurt it as i've never owned one before (driven mums new 2011 one a fair bit) or wether i shouldn't push it above 5,500 etc.
This all said, i'm not a hoon who wants to hit fuel-stop at every shift, i just like the occasional 2nd gear up to 90kph squirt, how do these 2.4L engines last..?
Thanks in advance for all your support!!
Proud owner to be of an Accord Euro,
Dale.
