I brought my car here after a diagnostic reading from Auto Zone once my engine light came on. The code indicated that I had misfiring cylinders. The owner of "Euro..." "Winston"as well as his employee "Barry" (mechanic assigned to my car) advised to replace all 6 coils, instead of the two misfiring cylinders (3 & 5) indicated from the code, because "they're all going to go bad". I decided to listen to them. We called Honda, and their price for each coil was $75.00. he said he would order 6 of them and to pay him $600.00 for everything. They did the job. A few weeks pass and the engine light comes back on. Again I went to Auto Zone and received another diagnostic reading. The code, again showed two misfiring cylinders (3&5). How could this be???? I decided to get my car checked out by an actual Honda facility for $150, as I am a student who desperately needs her car to function properly. After they checked my car, they concluded that the coils replaced in my car were cheap $30 off the market coils and wont work in the car because my model of car (accord v6) uses specifically Honda coils. Honda advised me to go back to "Euro..." and show them the findings and request the correct parts i already paid for, since that was not what was put in the car. They also told me the car will continue to shake, idle, and shut off until the coils are correct. That's exactly what occurred. They also, showed me a side by side difference with their Honda brand coils and the off the market coils that were put in my car. The Honda coils, actually have a part number as well as HONDA written on the part. I brought this information back to "Euro Asian Auto Repairs", where i explained and showed the owner "Winston" the recent diagnostic code along with pictures i had taken with my cell phone of the Honda coils in comparison to the off the market coils. After much debate, he finally agreed to get the proper coils. I made an appointment with "Winston" on a Tuesday. He asked me to come back on Wednesday, then Thursday, and then Friday. I waited and wasted time waiting all week to have nothing be done. My car remains unfixed with a - ($600 + $150) loss. Do not bring your car here!
