2019 Honda Accord - Engine Swap

Hi Scotty, 

 

I am a big fan of your videos and learn a lot from them. So thank you so much for making those videos. 

I have Honda accord 2019 1.5L touring model. As you already know, its earth dreams engine, turbocharged, 1.5L capacity. I have got almost 190K kms on it. 10 days ago, right after tire swaps into winter tires, it gave me bunch of sensor malfunctioning alarms. The diagnostics results confirmed the cylinder 2 and 3 malfunctioning. Replaced spark plugs for all cylinders and ignition coils. She ran for good without alarms but alarms came back up after 2 days. Along with engine overheating. The coolant was all dried up. So did coolant flushing and refilled it. Once again the alarms disappeared from the dashboard. And once again came back up in 24 hrs. Took it to Honda dealership, the head gasket is gone, coolant is leaking into the engine, metal shavings are found in engine and the conclusion is I have to replace this engine. 

Its quite expensive and stressful. What do you suggest, to get it replaced by Honda as I am getting 12 months warranty or look around for better warranty.

I would read the fine print on this warranty before doing anything else.
