Thinking about a 2018 Highlander V6. Would appreciate your thoughts.
Replacing 2000 Odyssey that I bought new & still running well at 190K miles.
Also have 2006 Accord V6 with 90K (no VCM).
Some Points:
-> Plan on long-term ownership > 10 years.
-> Impressed by Toyota D-4S V6 engine with Port and Direct Injection.
Seems like this design will keep intake valves clean. True?
-> NOT impressed with fuel dilution typical of DI, and especially with my short-trip, in-town driving.
Don't know if D-4S is better in this regard. Comments?
-> Looking everywhere for a UOA on D-4S - don't find even one! Can you help?
-> I love the Honda V6, but not impressed with fuel dilution of DI or VCM.
-> Also not impressed with Honda I4 Turbo fuel dilution (e.g CR-V).
Thanks for your help!
