Car Forum / Honda Cars / July 2005Fear over new purchase of 2001 Civic DX
Hi there, Question.... I have just bought a new 2001 Honda Civic dc with 100,000 (even) km on it. It runs great, but it cost me a fair bit of money (I'm a new grad) and I can't afford realy to put anything more into it. I don't want to have payments, so I cashed in some RRSP's to pay for it. I am scared though. I am scared that the timing belt is going to break or something else badwill happen to force me to dump more $$ into it. Is it a safe car? Is it a safe buy? Should I sell it and get a fair price. Please help as I feel sick about all of this... Derek 100k is about time for a t-belt job. You should check into getting this replaced soon. If you need to save some $$ try and find a Honda shop (not dealer) to get the job done. > Hi there, > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > Derek > 100k is about time for a t-belt job. 100k /miles/, not kilometers. 100k miles = 160k kilometers. > You should check into getting this replaced soon.
