Please does anybody have an idea about the cost of Honda Accord Discussion Continues 3.0 V6 Engine? And where to get one in good condition. I think the engine code is J30. I will really appreciate your help.

Cost is about 150k to 180k.

If you want a brand new engine ... You have to order it yourself from overseas through carparts.com

Nothing is wrong with the Engine. The previous mechanic that worked on it, didn't do a very good job. I was angry when they engine started acting up but thankfully I later got another mechanic who resolved most of the problems. The timing was not properly set after it was replaced. It did not cut but was replaced as part of maintenance. Car was also overheating for no reason and instead of identifying the fault, the mechanic went to put the fan on direct blow. The mechanic was also running SAE20W50 oil as against SAE5W20. Very fraudulent. It pays to buy engine oil by yourself and have the mechanic change it.

Please can wrongly set timing cause over heating problems.??

what are u doing here?

I was about changing the engine. It would have been a huge mistake but thank God I found someone who told me to wait. Timing belts lasts for about 100,000 miles before they are replaced. Many don't know this. I did more research and found out that late timing can cause the fuel ignition process to go off too soon or too late which can heat up the chamber and cause vehicle to overheat. But this can is heightened when others factors are involved. But I am glad that the whole thing has been fixed. Thereby saving me $$$$ on engine replacement.

Timing belt issue causing overheating ?
Anybody that is telling you this is not getting his fact right cos if timing issue wll cause your car to overheat ,then at that extreme case ,you won't be able to use the engine again .
