i need some tips when it comes to looking for a used civic ek.. as in what to look out for or test/check?
jackin up the car is one of the best method. most effective too.
other den that, if u open up any civic hood. u will see like those paper punch hole on the chassis. and they are meant to be in CIRCULAR SHAPE n no cement marks on them. if u see it out of shape, most likely it kena an impact b4.
another one is, if u remove the bumper, u can actually see the bottom hidden part of the chassis covered by the bumper. tats another spot.
and near the door panel. around the whole thing its suppose to be a smooth all out feel. no welding or wat so ever.
hope our guide help, best bring ur technician n check.
internal hidden parts are hardest to check like engine internal parts & hidden.
do like jfd sed, bring some guy there to check

This is what i have learnt from sending my car to Ampower Motorsport in setapak. Aside from checking externally, its best to jack up the car. Alot of tell tale signs can be seen if the car has been abused or if it is an accident car. Signs like rusted metal, gearbox leakage, gear linkage, worn out bushes, dents and even weld marks (which could possibly mean it is a joint car).
Aside from that check the engine thoroughly, make sure it is the engine that is claimed by the seller.
There are also many parts that may be claimed by the seller but you cannot see without opening the car up for example cams, pistons, clutch components.
Best is to bring to a honda specialist for thorough checking to ensure confidence.
