Hi Scotty.
I watched your youtube video and saw you bought a 2001 Honda Civic with the 1.5 turbo.
I have researched the issues of this engine, and know about the remedial software and special oil and oil change interval.
I am looking at a used Civic Sport Touring 2021 with 32,000 miles. I figure with the low miles, not much damage has occurred.
I can make sure the remedial software is installed as well as adhering to the recommended oil protocols.
Question: Do you still feel confident this engine will be ok ?
We are retired and no longer drag race, lol.
Thank you.

Yes, it should be reliable as long as you change the oil every 5,000 mi and use full synthetic oil and a synthetic oil filter.
