Hope everyone is well, i've owned my mk6 accord for 5 years and have done over 70k miles on it. The reliability is amazing from my 2.0 petrol engine even after it was converted to LPG.
However i am now looking to get an 8th gen accord 2.2 diesel Honda Accord EX GT I-DTEC as an upgrade. I am going to view one on saturday and if i am happy with everything i will end up driving it home. However i am worried about couple of things
- How common is a Turbo failure?
- What do i need to look for when doing a test drive?#
- DPF, is this something i need to be worried about?
- Anything else i need to look out for?
- What should i be looking for in the Service history? (timing belt, water pump,)
I have been reading couple of posts and i am slightly worried about going from a petrol to a diesel,
