Honda HRV 2000 80K+ on clock

Bought one of these and its my first one, no problems at the moment but what kind of service should I consider for my own piece of mind, should I head for a Honda garage or a local mechanic, is there really much difference. I'm asking as I once had a Citroen and went to the garage and was sorely disappointed, once bitten twice shy. Thanks

Honda CDTi emgine problems

Sunrise — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 08:50:40 GMT

Honda admit to the fact that the Honda Accord deisel engine only has an low pressure warning and after losing my engine I have been told that if this warning happens to go off you have already lost your engine. The car other than this is a very nice car so if you buy one keep a close eye on your oil level. My car was only 17 months old with 15000 miles on the clock and the first price Honda quoted me for a new engine was 10000 pounds plus vat it eventually cost me 4000 pounds so be warned keep a close eye on your oil level.

Automatic Transmission D4 Light Problem

trebor61 — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 17:17:43 GMT

My sons Accord has a recurring intermittent problem with the D4 light coming on, if he stops the car and restarts the light will go off and the car will drive normally again. A Honda dealer replaced the solenoid valve which was the fault identified when they plugged it in, but it didn't solve the problem. We took it to a transmission specialist who found a fault with a sensor in the throttle body, so replaced it, ok for a few days but the light has come on again and this time so has the engine management light. We'll take it to be looked at again but does anybody have an idea of what it could be ? For the record the car drives superbly smooth when the light is not illuminated and the transmission oil is clean with no grittiness.
