WOW!! I bought an AP2 short block(F22C) for $3,200 BRAND NEW from Honda. It shipped from their Stockton warehouse to my shop in two days and we installed it immediately. Granted labor was free since I worked there. I cannot fathom how they came up with that $12,000 figure.

This is all hear say. This is what the DEALER is telling me. Mind you all they're worried about is me giving the "approval" for them to run this diagnostic. But with them just pulling up codes from the ECU and "looking around" they're basically assuming I blew my tranny and engine. The service manager himself said a new engine is about $11,000. Now as far as the "quotes price" of $16k, that was brought to my attention from the tow truck driver. He said that's what they told him. So I have no idea...all I can do is laugh at this point cause I've stressed so much within this week that I might actually have a stroke lol.

Then take a video so we can hear what their claiming is knocking to the point they believe the engine is blown. What codes did they pull? Do you have the car in your possession right now?
No I don't have it with me at the moment. It's at the shop. The only codes I thrown from the diagnostic the dealership ran was the "engine over speed, misfire on cylinder 1, misfire on cylinder 2, and an o2 sensor low voltage."

Well the cars still in the shop. They ran a compression test. There's compression, and the engine starts every time they try to turn it on. The only thing is they told me there's a ticking that gets louder as the engine warms up. They're going to open up the top of the engine and look under the valve covers and what not...so hopefully by tomorrow I'll know for sure.
As far as a "new transmission" goes..they said they almost 100% positive the tranny is still good and there's no need for a new one. Not sure why the dealership told me I needed one. But they're also trying to figure out how to erase that engine over speed code. They erase it but it keeps coming back. So who knows.
Everything is pretty much still hear say. Praying for the best though.
