Confirm with your dad whether he changes the Engine Oil or Transmission Oil?

I have an Accord too and I was told by the technician that it is quite common to see Honda (especially Civic) with faulty gearbox & engine. The reason is because the way these drivers drive. If you like to play around accelerating with VTEC and overtaking vehicles by shifting your gear, expect your gearbox or engine to wear out soon.

Thanks.

ps: By the way, my friend's 8-months old 328i gearbox spoilt. He admitted that playing around with tiptronic on the highway is the culprit. Fortunately it was replaced for free since the car is still under warranty. So, are you going to say all BMW 3-series out there are lousy and don't buy it?
