you must seriously be on crack. the eco has got to be the easiest out of the 3 mostly because of the no mess oil filter that you juts pull the cap off.

and i've never owned an honda. but if you love them so much maybe go buy one. there is enough room under the hood for regular maintence, not to mention i pulled the tranny out, which i've never done before, and put it in on the same day.

are aleros perfect? hell no. but they are alot better than other vehicles.

much smaller then a jetta, its actually really easy to change the oil filters in the ecotech's once you own that socket that is it comes on and off like nothing and useally* sp makes no mess

i like my alero a lot why do you think i got a second alero after i crashed my first one but if should have gotten a 2.2 or 2.4 not the 3400. Why the eff would i get a honda. I just said they are easy to work on. if there was a japanese car i would be a Subaru legacy or WRX or supra.

sorry, the oil filter comment was for you, but the honda comment was for spec when he typed this

why cant this damn alero be like every other car. its rediculous how difficult this car is. its always different from the rest. just another reason i prefer japanese cars over american, because their so much simpler

I dissassembled my whole crx with 10 and 12mm sockets and a 22mm for the axle nut. Simplicity at its finest.

And 3.4s are the hardest alero motors to do anything to. I wish I had an eco or a duce fo for easiness to work on and difference in price and selection from an aftermerket viewpoint.
