2018 Honda Accord Touring 1.5T 43,600 mi Driven by a 50 year old man, who drives it like a 60 year old man (maybe seen 3500RPM twice in its life)
Cold start misfire starts 6 months prior to taking vehicle into dealership.
Cold start progresses from subtle vibration to shaking over the course of 6 months, error messages for a misfire on cylinder 1 consistent for the last 30 days. Would hold idle RPM at 1900 to avoid limp mode.
Dealership diagnosis: 1. failed fuel injector on 2 and 4 2. scope detected coolant in cylinder 1.
Recommendation: 1. New injectors 2. Head gasket
Solution: New injectors and head gasket, all covered under the powertrain warranty.
Total time: 12/27/23 -- 01/05/24
Dealership experience: outstanding
Honda reputation: took a big hit for me, head gasket AND injectors at 4.5 years/ 43,000 miles? Cmon!
