there is no accord with a 3.2. they're talking about the j30a(3.0 liter) motor. 3.0 liter, sohc vtec motor making 200 hp/195 pd-ft torque.

Okay, so you're right about the 3.2 not being used in the new V6 Accord, but the new V6 is 240 hp / 212 ft-lbs...

The reason why I asked is because I'm curious if the TL will likely have similar wear.

You need MPZ: higher levels of moly, phos, and zinc. Mr. Moly break-in and/or MLEP will do nicely.

you are right, the 7th gen accord v6 makes 240 hp BUT it is the same j30(3.0 liter single cam motor). its just highly tuned, for example has a much better intake manifold setup, and honda was able to squeeze out another 40 hp from the same 3.0 liter. nissan needs 3.5L(for the altima) and PREMIUM fuel to make 240 hp.

I am guessing the high copper is from bearing wear - anyone can confirm that is what honda uses?
