Default 2006 Accord 4cyl - what motor?

It's a DOHC 2.4L 160HP -- is this a k-series motor?

I'm interested in getting an Accord but the Canadian v6 does not offer 5MT - only the i4.

tia.

It is a K series 2.4 DOHC, not sure of the engine code, but it makes 165 HP, as compared to the 03-04 Accord K24A4 DOHC which made 160 HP. TSX is a K24a2 and makes 200HP. NOTE: These are USDM specs, unsure of CDM specs.

The V6 coupe is the only one you can get with a 6sp. All other V6 accords get the 5sp auto.

No, it's not the same as the TSX motor. You'll find some parts the same, but the TSX motor and Accord motor are different codes and they're made for different folks.

The Accord K24 is a slugger, everyday driver with a lot of torque.

The TSX K24 is a higher HP, higher revving sporty car motor.

The 4 cyl Accords have a five speed. The 6 cyl Accords have a six speed.
