Hi guys. I just bought my sone a new used 98 Honda Accord EX. It has 25.7K miles and is a one owner. Appears to be very clean. I notice when it is started from cold, after siting all night, it seems to have one noisey lifter (or some other tapping) that gradually becomes softer and goes away after a minute of idling. O thought I'd have my mechanic look at that and do a complete once-over look over. Any other suggestions to look at. I talked the dealer building a 36K 3 year extended warranty into the sale price so anything mechanical outside of normal wear and tear is covered. It's a great looking car. That deep burgandy with gray leather. They call it purple on the registration, but it isn't purple.
