That car has a very sensitive transmission,1 little mistake,na kaput.
Then d engine mounts too,seems like there's no 'good' one in d market.
Then d power steering pump/steering rack.
Aside that it's light on d highway.
Then,avoid d V6 if possible.

See gobe, has your mechanic duped you? You come transfer agression?

By sensitive trans you men using Abro ATF? Or any other Dexron 1 or dexron II ATF. Have you for gotten honda specified Dexron III, Honda Z1 or Honda DW1? Is using Abro ATF a mistake?

You buy chinko engine mount, i swear even the seller no go give you 1hr guarantee.

Bought my 2003 EOD in 2013, i have only changed 2 engine mounts (front and left) with toks and are still tight. I have changed 1 ps pump and 1 alternator in about 4years of using the car which i bought Naija used. Other things i changed are 1 inner CVT joint (inner cup), spark plugs, o2 sensor, valve cover gasket, exhaust camshaft, serpentine belt, tie rod ends, stabilizer and bushing and suspension wishbone main bushing. Its 4 years, and i have done over 70k miles. Even my coolant is still the factory installed.

Weight, are you comparing it to G wagon? Or BMW 7series? Compare it with 'big for nothing' and lets talk again.
