1989 Honda Prelude 2.0 Si review from North America
"This car is the best car I have owned!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had many problems with power steering leaks,When I bought it the main power steering hose was leaking. I replaced the hose, (which is very expensive) then I find out Honda had a recall on those hoses. Later on my power steering fluid was disappearing about a bottle every two weeks. I found out where it was going when it came out the over flow on my trans, due to a bad speed sensor housing seal.
General comments?
I LOVE THIS CAR! It runs and drives perfect!I paid only $500 for it. After $1200 for parts and paint it has been fun to drive!
