The SX is solid. K24 & nonCVT... Good choice![emoji106]

Since you mentioned the drivetrain - the CRV’s K24 is quite unlike other Honda engines - has a lot of torque in the low-end but surprisingly sparse top-end.
Also, the 5AT actually hurts performance. Very long second gear unable to maximize the engine unlike the CVT in our 2.0 5th gen. So the performance gap between the 2.0 CVT and 2.4 5AT is less than the 30 hp difference on paper.
Thankfully the K24 is torquey enough so you have good pull at 2000-3000 rpm at any gear. Makes up for the poor gearing, but outright acceleration is compromised.

Question Sirs: Just after hard acceleration halimbawa mag-overtake may amoy sunog parang akala mo nasunog na clutch/goma. What causes this? TIA
my guess, friction plate material, i.e., brakes or clutch.
or,
the usual odor of something in the engine bay.
the sudden movement somehow pushes the odor thru the small wholes in the engine compartment into the passenger compartment.
errr,
does your car have a clutch friction plate? you did not mention your car, kasi.

i think its just your AC... hard acceleration = high revs.. and that high rev makes your AC compressor pump more refrigerant in the system
na experience ko yan sa car ko dati.. if mag rev high, may something na parang sunog na amoy coming out of the air vents.. bigla kasi lalamig yung cooling coil due to the compressor change in revs.. then mag compensate yung expansion valve.. yung sudden influx ng refrigerant will make the cooling coil "cooler" and will dry out the air.. kaya ayun minsan may kakaibang amoy..
fanbelt and A/C belt can smell similar to brake and clutch friction plate material.
Hi everyone, just want to ask kung good buy pa rin ba ang Honda Civic na 10th gen lets say after 2 years? I already sold my Ford Ranger and I want to replace it with Honda Civic kasi ayoko na ng tagtag, nakakapagod na rin mag detail ng malaking sasakyan and also may Fortuner pa naman to use.![]()
however one spins it, a repo car is just a used car, fraught with all the caveats and emptors associated with used cars.
bringing in your expert to evaluate the car is permitted, naman.
but driving the car around the lot or even starting it... that might be a problem. it might not be allowed. also, some of these repo cars in the lot might already have their batteries flat, what with storage time...
someone suggested that one might befriend the yard's katiwala, for tips.
