Hello all
I have been away from Hondas for a few years now. I used to have petrol Accords in the past including the 2.0 and 2.4 Type S which I loved.
I am looking at going back to Hondas and thinking of purchasing a 2011 Accord Type S 2.2 dtec. This car has 40,000 miles on clock and looks fine. I have the following questions
1...DMF set up in the 180hp Type S. Is it still as problematic as the 148hp Accord. And should i really let it put me off buying?
2...DPF getting blocked. I do quite a bit of commuting in heavy traffic in the week days but can still give the car a good 40 mile run down the motorway once a week and I would also be using Shell V power diesel not the cheaper fuel. Am I likely to get problems at 40,000 mile mark?
Cheers
Keith
