theres a common fault with the thermostats, they get stuck. very easy fix though. cheap and simple

A few common things but nothing major,
-Thermostat sticks open and runs cold
-Aerial motor dies
-Radiator top tank cracks
-Sunroof shudders during operation if tracks not maintained
-Rear trailing arm bushes become squeaky/creaky
-Clutch master & slave cylinders eventually develop slow leak

Some of these are normal for any car, in my experience a very strong and reliable car.

Also check for leaks on the cam seals and around the VTEC solenoid area.

amazing, my 95 dc2 has had ALL the above mentioned problems minus the thermostat going cold. extremely reliable car, one thing you'lll also probably run into is the hosing around the radiator bulging. But this'll happen to most cars.. just make sure to fix/replace as soon as u spot bulging.
