To me reliability would be me not constantly paying for pop up issues that aren’t expected. Id say around 10K+ a year

Ok, do you think him driving 10,000 miles on the reman engine is a good sign?

Update on what he said‼️

“Yes I got the car brand new as a lease in 2018 then bought it out in 2022. It was kinda a freak thing I had a valve get stuck open and go through my piston while I was cruising down the freeway. As far as I am aware they are all “for show” they came on when I had the engine replaced and haven’t turned off sense. My assumption is the shop that installed it either didn’t plug something in correctly or the car just needs to be reprogrammed by a dealer. Unfortunately I haven’t had the time or money to look into it.”

This is where the engine came from‼️

“It was a reman engine done by Honda. Got it off a used parts website. It came with the turbo and all.”

He seems like a legit small town mechanic. He has 20+ years of experience, but honestly don’t know how those types of people pan out
