@ralfsautomotive I see you edited your comment. Good deal. Reason I ask is because the Honda dealership is trying to charge $7,400 for a used engine with 126k miles. Of course, I thought that was an outrageous price, especially with the engine being non reman at 126k. Couldn't believe that
I think my 2013 four cylinder Accord is having oil consumption issues. I have Maxcare through Carmax so is there anyway to know if the swapped engine is going to do the same thing?
13-14 engine have problem with piston rings I believe so it always burn oil. And 13-15 is the same engine, 16-17 is upgraded. So for some like this just try to get the 15 version😊
Yes, some have oil consumption Issues. And the process is the same for the entire range. Oh, and allot of times(more that not) I do not have control over that. Yes I can pick but my parts come out of a network and I have to use what they have,
I think my 2013 is having Oil consumption issues. I bought my Accord from Carmax at the end of 2021 with only 40K miles. I’m now at 75K and i’m losing a little bit of oil at a time. I would assume my maxcare warranty would cover the cost of a new engine or refurbished whatever you call it. I’m just worried that the new engine would have the same issue unless they corrected it.
Curious, you mention the people were on a budget. How much did the job run?
Nobody will disclose that kind of information on YT. I put it like this it was less than 3K and the Car is running perfect.
@ralfsautomotive Apologies, didn't seem too invasive to ask to me.

Depends what you consider consumption. Unfortunately, manufacturers have a lot leadway on that. To answer the question no there's no way to know.
Where did you get your engine cause I want to swap my accord current engine with another
