Hi All

First post on here! I am in the UK and have seen a 2000 Accord V6 with just 30k miles and full history. The only thing preventing me buying is the reputation of I have read on here regarding the auto box….

Question, as it’s a UK car is it still affected by the problems? I don’t want to buy a car with a potentially very expensive fault!

 

if it is a j series mated to a 4 speed automatic, then yes you are screwed

 

Hi, thanks for the reply. how do i know if its a "J "series?

 

those cars came with J30A1, its stamped on the block

so yeah dont get it

 

Thanks guys. Such a pity as it was an immaculate one owner car and very cheap! Looks like I will stay with my 2.0 Accord for a while…. Just fancied the power of the 3.0 V6!

This sort of thing knocks your confidence in a manufacture… great to have websites like this where you can share knowledge!

Thanks again

Tony
