I just purchased an original 1994 EH2 CX (Canadian model) off an elderly lady. It is all orignal, paint is not to bad. It's a 4 speed auto with 185 000 km/s. I'm not new to Honda's so bare with me please. I know the CX model's came with a SOHC 8v D15B8. The car i just purchased has a SOHC 16v D15B7 which is found in the DX/LX models.

Was this an option? Do you think the motor has been replaced? I'm really confused and I highly doubt this car has had an engine transpant. Everything is original on it.

Thanks.

 

You know I'm going to ask you if you Googled this or not.

 

"CX models in Canada came with the 16-valve 102 hp 1.5L D15B7 engine as in the DX model, but could also be ordered with automatic transmission which also came with power steering. Some later CDM CX models "

 

The D15B8, 8 valve boat anchor was not available in Canada at all.

The automatic transmission is also a Canadian only option in a CX, sometimes you'll find one with a rear wiper as well.

 

Rear wiper is CDM 1995 CX only. Incidentally, there was no other trim of CDM hatch in this model year.

OP, I owned a 94 CX also and was confused why it had a D15B7 ... til I figured out all the differences in CDM and USDM trims and engines.

Pretty sure I wrote the quoted portion of the wikipedia entry, btw.

 

Yes I did google it, but I wanted true answers from a reliable source.

My CX does not have a rear wiper. It does have power steering but that's pretty much it. I miss my 93 EH3. It was full load with a B18C1 swap. But this CX does get great gas mileage!

Thanks for the clarification guys.
