Hey Scotty, how reliable is 2023 crv with 1.5l turbo.. I read so many article about new crv with 1.5l engine not really reliable. Thanks
Scotty, I have a 96 Civic sedan (27 years old) with 175K miles and consuming around 26mpg. What do you think about that?
Scottie would u recommend a v6 2003 s-10. How reliable would u say they r
Hi Scotty ! What do you think about the 2023 CRV hybrid with the 2.0 4-cyl direct injection dual overhead eng, which is very Honda-like? The hybrid does not come with the turbo eng. ! THANK YOU !!!!!!
scotty is the only person i can watch for a while and learn something while still being very entertained
39 minutes Scotty? I better get some popcorn 🍿 😊
and a bowl of......
O really?
I know, work can wait
What phenomenon of video for Toyota and Honda fans , I’m BOTH ! Join us and grab some popcorn 🍿 please lol . Thank you Scotty , your legendary in my book. 🎉
Just put it on 2x speed
Still have my 1991 Celica with 600,000 million miles. Still drives like new and looks like new. Zero wear and tear.
Thousand maybe
@@vinceferrara6528 thousand million.
There's no way
600 million
@@vinceferrara6528600 million miles?!?! Lmao....
Still daily drive my 2009 Accord, drives like day 1. Brilliant car.
How many miles? Saw another 8th gen accord the other day with 500k miles on and a 9th gen cvt with 450k (original cvt)
@@DIE2dayORelse I’m in India (we measure in km) it has 70k kms or 44k miles. But I’ve heard of the 500k mile Civic.
Accords are modern day tanks they run for ever
My '04" Accord LX has 93k garaged miles. I. Love. It.
@@AJ56 what's the gas mileage you getting?!
As they would say, Scotty never fails to entertain us.
Scotty must spend more time making videos than actually working on cars.
@@WhittyPicsyou’re dumb if you think he can’t afford editors and has time to do all the cutting and editing lol
If I could give an award, This would probably be my favorite CZcams video of recent years, Thanks Scotty, as I WILL be using this as a guide in an upcoming car search! Hopefully in an addendum, you'll cover some of the niche vehicles like the F4 and the Element.
It's good to know that I've been using the worst Camry but also was helpful to find best Corolla for the next car.
Thank you Scotty
Brilliant post scotty, how you get the time to do all these amazes me
Thank you very much Scotty. As a waiting buyer in this crazy car buyers market, I will take this learning experience and try my hardest to find a deal on one of these reliable mentions.
Got 234k on my 2003 CRV..... still gets better than 35MPG .......I can't justify getting rid of it
Thanks for very detailed information Scotty
My only Honda was a CVCC in the mid 80-early ninetis.
Had to replace a head gasket then finished running it into the ground.
Was long before I was Mr Maintenance Man but I did change the oil once in a while.
40+ mpg and delivered pizza too!
Lived in it for a while even.
It was a great little car.
Amazing video 🎥Great adding ➕too. The amount of information giving is incredible. Scottie you deserve 👍🏻👍🏻collecting all these tremendous info. I❤it.
This is some great history for Toyota and Honda. We're at our 4th Honda Fit, ranged from 2008 - 2015. Love the Honda more than Toyota, but would take either. Love the breakdown, very entertaining. No mention for HR-V and Fit/Jazz for Honda though?
Honda is more of a fun driving experience where Toyota is more of a comfort driving experience. I’ve owned both Civics and Camry and I will say, some of the most fun driving I’ve done were in Honda Cars.
Thinking of buying a Fit. Any years worse than others? Specific problems you’d care to share? Would appreciate. Would love to see Scotty go through that history too.
Excellent video! Especially for us Toyota Fanboys! Scotty can you do a "The Best and Worst Acuras and Lexus to Buy" please?
I enjoy this educational videos. Thank you.
Scotty outstanding video 👍 we love your CZcams channel ❤️
Am I the only one that LIKED the boxy-styled cars from the 70s?
Yes
I do in trucks
I liked them too. More usable space per "cubic pound".
Well, at least you could tell them apart and they each had a unique defining style.
No, four other people liked them. lol
Thanks for the historical info on Toyota and Hondas. Very educational Scotty!🎉
No mention of the Preludes?! Loved my 1991 Prelude S!!!
Massively informative!
Watching this informative and very entertaining video with my 2003 Toyota 4Runner with 302K miles on it.
I love Toyota and it’s actually going places stress free as long you doing your preventative maintenance 👍
Those late 90”s Early 2000”s Toyotas are the GOATS 🐐 of cars . Enjoy it
To those that are unsure what kind of Push Mower to get, just get any brand that has a Honda Engine on it. I bought a Craftsman Push Mower and because of the engine being a Honda versus Briggs and Stratton, it was way more reliable and powerful when mowing my grass! I will admit, they make the best engines whether it’s Marine to Automobiles!
And if you’re buying a Honda mower go get one right now because this is the last year they’re making them!
Some serious education always from Scotty!!
I'm looking into purchasing a highlander. Thank you so much for this information.
Hi Scotty, this is a great video, and I would love it if you could make something similar for Acura, although I know Aura is basically a Honda.
Will you do a video on explaining what a hybrid vehicle is verses battery operated and electric along with cvt transmission?
Granted neither were particularly great sellers, but it would be interesting to hear your thoughts about the Honda Crosstour vs. the Toyota Venza.
I used to have an 81 Accord hatchback with a 5 speed. It was a fun little car though the AC was lousy but it was dealer installed
I love my 05 Rolla, probably the smartest financial decision I've ever made.
Awesome video!
Accord 2003 with 385K, engine and transmission have been married since then. Very hard to beat that.
Love these!! Scotty is the Morgan Freeman of CZcams
Scotty, this is great, did u do this in school too? Radio/tv?
I love the longer videos
Also always bought Honda since my first car, dad got me a 1993 Acura legend, ran for 250k miles till I totaled it. Had a 97 RL after that I just traded in at 290k miles(for basically an $800 coupon) never had any major problems. Just upgraded to a 2011 tsx. Never been dissatisfied. However I did have a red on red 97 ford escort station wagon…..it made it 2 months before the timing belt snapped and started leaking PS fluid everywhere. Never bought anything but Honda again.
I love honda....but your timing belt snapping wasnt the escorts fault.....and your timing belt ,and power steering leak have nothing to do with each other.
@@richsweeney1115 I didn’t mean those two things were related, (reading my original comment it does sound like i was implying that though)
Hondas and Toyotas are where it’s at! I drove my ‘02 Honda Civic LX for 18 years. Bought it for $13K in ‘05. Fantastic little car! Very reliable, few repairs. A great buy. Just bought a brand new 2023 Honda Civic Touring. It’s a beautiful car and I hope to get at least 12-15 years out of it. 😊
My first car at 18yrs old in 1984 was blue 2 door 1980 Toyota Corolla 4speed. Been driving Toyota’s every since!
I could watch comparisons and histories like this all day
Best car I ever owned was a 1981 cvcc hatch . Wish I had that back today.
Those old Japanese cars were rolling piles of no safety. I miss my old Volvo's.
Yep they were great cars I miss my old civic and accord. Plus you were getting 50 miles per gallon. Numbers that will never see again
@@phatgringo2.0 Old Volvos where one of the few Euro cars that were decent. They have sucked the last 20 years, but they were good cars when they were rear drive.
I bet it got awesome gas mileage too.
That cvcc motor was one of the best. My sister had one. Too bad they were terrible rust buckets. 50 mpg on cheap gas
Mic drop Scotty, outstanding. knowlledge and wisdom and fact
Scotty I love this video! I enjoy the progression of the models! I NOTICED AT 8:57 what does he mean the transmission flippling? 😂 am I just not understanding or is that one a typo.
Slipping flipping same thing 😂
Always learning something new from you! Thank you Scotty!
Hey Scotty! I’m actually looking at a 2015 Honda civic si. I noticed you didn’t include it in the list of best pre owned Honda civics. Why is that? Are there any problems I’d haft to worry about for a 100k+ mile car. My girlfriends 2012 civics ac goes out on and off and I’d like to avoid anything like that. Thanks man😂❤
Thank you Scotty, what would we do without you.
Bought a new crv in 2017. Had major issues as did lots of folks with the 1.5 litre turbo and oil dilution. Started noticing in Nov 19. Car still almost trouble free in 23. I just change oil every 2500 to 300 miles
3000
I'll never give up my naturally aspirated 2020 hona civic sport.
I have a 2016 accord coupe touring trim with 109k miles. It’s perfect
Car price inflation is frightening. Honda customer for years, I’m thinking of Toyota Corolla as next car, (and even Hyundai i20) because Honda small cars are being too expensive.
My Honda Civic 1.6i-dtec is excellent, and I’m trying my best to keep running it as long as possible. 85000kms and 4.4L/km
I love my wife's 2009 CRV, it's still humming along with 180,000 miles on it.
I have a poster of a 2004 Toyota Land Cruiser, got it years ago and still looks brand new since I take good care of it
367K on my 2011 Fit... and going strong
i love long videos🖲️🖲️🖲️ super cool. thanks Scotty
Great video Scotty!!! I love the RAV4 EXCEPT the location of the spare tire but everything else about the RAV4 is awesome 💕💕💕
Hello Sir, do you have a Video of the same comparison for the Honda Odyssey and Toyota Sienna?
Another very good video Thank you Scotty. I hope that all manufactures have realized how rediculas and stupid not to mention just plain ugly the fender mounted rear view mirrors were LOL .
Best Toyota FAQ one could wish for, good job!
Even though it’s listed to avoid due to fuel system and brakes, my 2019 Highlander just went 35,000 miles on brakes. I noticed the fuel pump was replaced around 10k miles due to recall. I’ve had no issues. Love my Highlander
The 5 years old.....why would you have problems.....you guys are easy to impress...lol
Thank you Scotty great video.
Keep them coming content is Awesome 👍
Hi Scotty,
Been checking out new car prices at the L.A. area dealerships and find them all jacked up by at least ten grands.
Any ideas on how to find deals?
Had a ‘12 civic Si, loved it
The Si wasn’t included in the problems
Wish I kept my 1985 celica hatch back last off the rear wheel drives was a beautiful magic car to drive , bloody expensive to find one now in good condition , but still cheaper than to buy a new car tho , and u can work on it and service it easy ya self 😊😊😊😊😊 then the 1985 6cl celica hatch back the SUPRA a beautiful beast off a car ❤
The 1983 Honda Civic was the first car made with all robotic welding. I owned a 1983 FE 1300. Had a three barrel carburetor and all needle bearing wheels. Could get 60mpg but if run hard only 45mpg. I miss that car!! Three kids barely fit the back seat.
Robotic welding and then in 1984 the movie the terminator came out. That must’ve been surreal
Those are the wrong pics for the 5th gen Honda civic
Brilliant 👍🏻👍🏻
Scotty you should make a video about the Chrysler Pasifica and what years and models you like/are reliable.
None😬they're rolling dumpster fires. Chrysler hasn't build a good vehicle in decades.
What do you think of the 2010 Accord 4 cyl? Is that a good one overall?
I absolutely loved my 1985 5 speed cable clutch accord it ran for me to 450k miles
In which I sold it in 2009
Car was still in showroom condition.
I then bought a 1989 accord with the flip up headlights also 5 speed
That car was a nightmare of issues. The synchronizers in the transmission went out 4 times in two years.
Along with a list of problems that car the engine blew at 260k miles.
Then I went to a 95 accord automatic sedan
That was a nice trouble free car but got stolen at 300k miles and find stripped to the frame.
I then bought a 2001 civic that car was trouble free from 100k miles bought used til the transmission suddenly went out without warning at 132k miles.
And Honda wouldn’t do anything about it even tho it was a huge class action lawsuit for it. But cuz Honda said the warranty was only up to 120 miles I think they knew they mostly blew around my mileage or under…
I’ve had a few newer ones since.
Always get a manual if possible they’re automatic are not so good.with Hondas
I’ve owned or now own or in my family 2010 Prius 2007 rav4 and 08 Yaris
None have had any transmission issues and all automatic and my 2010 matrix lived til 350k miles the torque converter went out cost more then the car
HI Scotty, i wasnt sure what video to put this question on but i got a scan code on my 2002 chevy cavalier that read U1096 and U1000. Does this mean its just something on my instrumental panel or maybe a problem with PCM/ECU module? Or maybe because a mouse even chewed a wire? Car left me stranded a couple times in warm and below freezing temperatures. But i wouldnt even know where to start looking at all the wires. Do you have any thoughts on this code? Thank you.
I have a 99 Civic si in Boy i tell you what I have compliments all the time!!!! People are like wow man that looks awesome I'm like yeah it sat for 12 years. I brought it back to life lot of blood sweat and tears..but I tell you what under 200k on it it still runs like a monster!!!! Sometime I should bring it down to you..
My 99 LX civic had automatic transmission problems so I dumped it after six months and trade it up for a 2000 black EX with a five speed and loved it until it.
There was also undisclosed damage on the brand new 99 LX civic so I threatened the dealer with a lawsuit and got the 2000 EX for actually less than what the 99 LX cost!! I have never used that dealership after that.
Thanks Scotty!
Just got a ‘11 Camry and im glad i watch Scotty cuz he doesn’t know how much he saved my life
Fantastic Information.Thanks
1:30 this is the car I learned how to drive on. It was manual transmission, just a fun car to drive in. It reminds me how old I am.
I bought a new 1978 in color metalic silver. Of all the cars I have owned, this is still one of my favorites.
This goes to Mr Scotty Kilmer, first and foremost I want to thank you for such an incredible video that you have put together on the history of Honda and Toyota. I as well believe that they have been the 2 best auto makers in the last 25+ years here in the United States. I follow your channel and I must say that you are a very wise and informative mechanic who's 30 years of automotive knowledge allows me to take all angles in consideration when I'm thinking about purchasing a vehicle. I do have a question for you, I have been considering drifting in a different direction with my next purchase because there seems to be a lot of reviews floating around making the new 2023 Kia Telluride / Hyundai Palisade Calligraphy model a vehicle that is top of the line in all it's aspects. So I was wondering what is your take on these two companies and these two vehicles? I would appreciate any information that it's not being shared or released to the public that will help me decide on either one or to stay away, thanks
Honda and Toyota are known quantities. Kias have nice looking interiors with lots of tech. It's what's underneath that counts.
My CL7 Accord has 180k km on the clock. Best car ever imo.
I don't have the bells and whistles in it, it's the base model, but I put a powerful android radio into it along with 4 alpine speakers, I don't really miss Cruise control and heated seats that much.
1st car was a v6 accord coupe, just upgraded to a RAV4 hybrid. Love the Japanese cars
@Mister No Name accord is a 2001 with 280k miles, picked up the RAV4 on a brand new shipment. It had 4 miles when I bought it.
The best documentary ever by Mr Kilmer ✍🏾
Could you do one on minivans?
I don't like crossovers or suvs so I'll stick with a car as much as I can. Great video Scotty.
Which are the best years for the CRV? I'm looking to purchase a used CRV.
Hi Scotty
What are your views on the protection plans offered by Toyota dealers? I was recently up sold a three year plan (Assurant) for my recently purchased 2009 RAV4 4WD that has more than 140k miles.
The 2009 civic automatic
We’re not so great with their transmissions. They shudder and randomly slip
And many have reported hearing what sounds like a marble being bounced around inside the transmission. It was found to be a spacer ball bearing
It’s made of plastic with tiny beads half in and out around edges. Eventually plastic disintegrated and bearings got loose
Thanks for this very interesting video Scotty we learn a lot from you 👍
Bought a ‘73 Mazda 808, 1.6L, 2dr, rear wheel drive, 4speed stick great car. But as for boxy cars give me late 80s/early 90s Fox Body Mustang & others including ‘88 Nissan Sentra 1.6L4speed stick, drove that rascal all over Texas consulting utilities. Back then Honda & Nissan we’re neck and neck in quality but now Toyota & Honda rule
Thanks scotty, i was waiting on this video!!!
I have a 2008 Honda CR-V lx I do oil changes every 3 to 5 miles have 174,000 miles( the a/c don't work )but have had no problems with it runs like a top
What do you think about the Corolla Cross Hybrid S?
Wow, thank you so much Scotty for the lovely analysis. ❤
Scotty just made a mechanics teachers job a walk in the park for learning Honda or Toyota history
My 2009 CRV has been damn reliable other than having to replace that tiny 52R battery every 3 years. I am going to try to fit a 24f in it next time. It is getting due for a battery this summer
How many miles? AC still good? No excessive oil consumption?
I grew up in my 2009 Honda CRV and now it’s mine. 280,000+ miles and still going.
For the Honda heads I heard that the 6th or 7th generation accords (2000-2003ish) 6 cylinders specifically were notorious for transmissions dying way sooner for some reason, never understood why. All I knew was that all my mechanic friends told me to steer clear of accord 6 cylinders made close to 2000.
Manual ftw
In one of Scotty's videos, he recommended avoiding 2005-2010 accord's with automatics
Id buy a honda over toyota...my hondas have never had any major issues..even over 300k..
I like this rating the best and worst of cars over a period of years! (e.g. 18:31) This is VERY valuable information! MORE PLEASE. ( 2016 was a very good year for Presidents too!)
I haven’t seen a humble Honda Civic in recent years especially a humble price! 😢
Excellent video Scotty!
Scotty, can you recommend good years for the Honda Fit?
Was driving a 2001 Honda Accord. New England winters have started to eat up so much underneath my mechanic doesn’t think it’s worth fixing. It’s got LESS THAN 90,000 MILES on it. 😢. I’d like another Honda but think even a Civic may be too expensive.
Anyone want to buy a Honda Accord? 😄
After owning 4 Honda civics in the last 14 years I’d have to go with the Honda CRV never had any issues with my civics solid cars and value for the money
Thanks Scotty
I drive an 03 accord v6 that has 282k miles and is running like a champ. I can only imagine if it was a good accord
I don’t think the v6 was included in the problem cars
I owed a 2003 Highlander best vehicle I ever owned 285K only had to replace TB (2 times) tires and a motor mount. Zero out of pocket besides that.
The 2012 civic Si wasn’t included in the customer complaints. Honda still revamped it the very following year along with the rest of the civics anyway
