What's the latest Honda words on the amount of oil burn in these
engines? Because some owners of 2007 Toyotas posted that their manuals

Many of the newer Toyota/Lexus 3.5L V6 engines have excessive piston-

Not sure where is most appropriate place to post this.
I have a lease on a 2006 Accord.  Lease is up in July of 2009.  Lease
buyout is $13500.  57000 miles on car now (12000 over) at $.15/mile
($1800) and payments of $330/mo.  Owe about $4000 to get out of car

I've had two shops tell me now that my motor mounts

an independent shop. How common is this? I have
96k on it.

I have an accord lease which is completed in July of 2009.
My wife and I went out car shopping this weekend for its replacement

Do I really need to replace knock sensors on my cars??  It turns out
that some rats in my yard have eaten through the wiring to the knock
sensors causing the check engine light to go on.  Interestingly the
lights went on in both the cars within a day of each other -the 2005

I am trying to sell an '86 Honda Civic that I have been driving for ten
years.  I listed it on Craigs List for 500 bucks and this morning a man came
by to look at it.  I described all the problems I had with it stalling etc.
but when I went to pop the hood it would not release.  ...

We just got clobbered with snow in New England where I live and I am at the
point where I don't want to get an Accord anymore and want a 4WD vehicle
instead. I heard that the 2008/2009 CR-V 4WD is good in the snow and more so
