Hey folks could use some suggestions. Im purchasing a 03 ex auto. Car idles well with slight missfire sound. Seller states that out of no where car is real sluggish upon acceleration. doesnt blow smoke or anything. He said he looked up some things on youtube and thinks it might be a bad VVT solenoid? Has anyone experienced similar issues and found the resolution? Just looking for some input before I buy it. Its a honda so it cant be anything horribly wrong. These things pretty much run forever. I kno0w this is pretty vague but Im sure someone has had similar issues.

 

Mine has been doing it as long as I have had the car. An engine swap made no difference.I would rather spend money on my other toys so I just live with it. I have always been disappointed with the car it is always breaking down even though it only has 103k on the car always been garaged and starting to rust. I think it is cursed
