Hey everyone,

Just bought a 1992 accord, was told it had a rebuild at 100k and is now at 76k. (Deep Sigh) . So here's the deal. The shifting seems sketchy, the steering wheel column shakes heavily when highway driving, It came with a ricer exhaust, and the biggest thing..The key I got only works for the ignition, not the doors, trunk, or glove box. So here's where I'd like your guidance, and help feeling better about my purchase!

- What do I do about the locks! I need to be able to lock my car
- Im going to do one of those $200 transmission services, is this good, what is included?
-Is it a pain to convert the exhaust back to a stock tip?

General maintenance I should do ASAP( assume nothing has been done besides oil)

- Spark plugs, wires, 02 sensor
- Clean EGR valve
- Check speed sensor.

This is all I have so far, any help is greatly appreciated :(

what the...

sounds like it was stolen since the ignition and steering column are fucked up.

if you had an extra $200 to throw at a transmission service you should just go get a new transmission...for christ sakes is a 92 accord it would probably only cost like $100 for a working transmission at a salvage yard.

how much did u pay for it 500 bucks ?

i always am suspect to those rebuild jobs. if they have the receipt then sure but just taking someones word on it idk.

as for the steering, could be a lot of things maybe the rims are bent ?

e/ also i wouldnt even bother putting any money into this car try to sell for the amount u have into it and just take your losses.

try to learn from your mistakes. got to look over cars with a super fine tooth comb.

Your price guide is horribly wrong. I think it needs to be taken down ASAP, I am petitioning this with some senior mods.
