GAZZUZZ:
Short true story.

I had a client who bought a V6 accord toks, the car came with a bad transmission, so we replaced it with a toks, 6months later it started misbehaving, this time around when i went to buy a replacement part , i found a transmission that had been rebuilt recently in the USA (less than 6months with the tag still ok the converter)

I paid for it. Client sold the car because of fear, but 3years later that car is still running perfectly with new owner.

The life span of the V6 transmission is about 180,000miles and after that it will need a rebuild or replacement.

Good insight thank you.

GAZZUZZ:
The Honda accord 2003-2007

The I4 models are very sturdy , occasionally you cold find them with transmission issues, but comparatively an inexpensive replacement hovering around ₦150k total package.

As a rule, avoid Aluminum engines with graphite gaskets (if you don't know ask).

The V6 model. I am yet to see a Nigerian used one for sale that didn't have a defective transmission.

Transmission failure and the accord V6 are like agege bread and Ewa goin.

In as much as I dislike this model of Accord. I know someone whom have used a V6 for 5years plus no issues with transmission no leg broken on any occasion yet. Recent complaints it began shorting oil. He's always uses 0w20. Travels a lot to the east for Lagos often.

Inception:
actually what it means is that the steering ins not hydraulically assisted(i.e no power steering pump and fluid required)

it is still connected to the rack via the steering shaft & yoke mechanism. instead power assist comes from an electric motor eihter mounted on the steering rack or on the steering shaft

I get it. Though I've seen an Audi video where a driver was testing an Audi car he was told there's no rod connection to the steering. It's all electronically controlled. Apart from it having an electronic assist steering rack. What turns the car is different electric motor which takes readings from the steering as the driver turns it. Immediately the driver stopped the car. He told guy with him that he shouldn't have told him that, now he does not feel comfortable driving the car. He mentioned feeling some split second delays when turning the wheels.

Bro that's scary. Imagine you driving and someone hacks into your car and takes control.

I dunno it tesla has such tech or the tech is in place and there is still a rod.

Gazuzz:
Kia Rio 2011(12)-2017

3 things to look out for.

1. The engine : very expensive full aluminium engine that easily gets bad when vehicle overheats engine price hovers around ₦500,000

2. Same problem with the VDC compressor sadly this one gets bad without any interference before vehicle hits 50,000km modifying the a/c system is a real pain as the engine is usually a 1.4liter engine or 1.2liter and will vibrate under load when a manual compressor is installed

3. Electronic steering column and steering rack, : our roads were not designed for electronic assisted steerings.

You mean it has no rod connecting directly to the steering? shocked

I'm truly not comfortable with such technology.
