1991 Honda Accord DX review from North America
"An engineering masterpiece"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The 1991 Automatic transmission control module (TCU) burned out twice. Each time I just bought one on ebay for $35 and I was good to go.
General comments?
This car is almost old enough to vote and it's still reliable and gets good mileage. I put an exhaust header and performance intake on it to try to get a few more horsepower out of the motor and was somewhat successful. This car is fun and very functional. I am thinking of swapping out my automatic transmission for a 5 speed.
