    Thank you.. I now feel confident I can do this, but could not have done it without the details provided here!! Thanks for all the info, pictures, etc! :bow:
  2. Any DIY guides on replacing the horn?

    Freaking awesome! Thank you! :thumbsup: :goodpost:
  3. Dent above passenger doors, accident or body issue?

    Yeah, what HE (@My2016Civic) said.....
  4. Dent above passenger doors, accident or body issue?

    Perhaps this should be combined with this thread: http://www.civicx.com/threads/wow-the-hood-sheet-metal-is-so-thin.3167/ They're both related in that they show how thin and flimsy our cars are!
  5. Wow, the hood sheet metal is so thin.

    Perhaps this should be combined with this thread: http://www.civicx.com/threads/dent-above-passenger-doors-accident-or-body-issue.3002/ They both seem to be somewhat related. How thin and flimsy our cars are!
  6. Dent above passenger doors, accident or body issue?

    This is an entirely plausible theory. As we all now, metal (and other materials) expand and contract with temperature (heat = expand, cold = contract). Different steel strengths and/or thicknesses will inherently expand and contract at different rates. When you have a place where two...
  7. Dent above passenger doors, accident or body issue?

    I see the Driver's side to be the Left side, but others may see it differently. For those that have different points of view, should you change the voting/survey to read something more like this?:
  8. Dent above passenger doors, accident or body issue?

    I do hear an occasional pop as I drive with the radio off, mainly when changing from driving forward to reverse and vice/versa and also when taking sharp right turns. I didn't think it was related and thought it was just the rear suspension, but I suppose it could be related to this issue if...
  9. Dent above passenger doors, accident or body issue?

    I checked mine and have a combination dent/ripple in the same area. Thanks @My2016Civic for a visual that finally explains this mystery! Unfortunately, while the dents can be easily fixed by dent pulling, bondo, etc if the above is in fact the cause, they will come back. The only true...
  10. Has anyone replaced the horrible horn yet?

    I vote for the second one, the Maxi-Sound.. Not too European or Asian sounding.. More mainstream USA!
  11. My first fill up- MPG

    Wow, that's awesome!! I wish I was getting anywhere near those numbers! Are you driving with ECON mode On or Off? How many miles total do you have on it and is it mostly highway driving? Just curious. Even though I'm not too worried about MPG's just yet, I've been driving very...
  12. My first fill up- MPG

    This is on-par with what I'm experiencing so far with regards to MPG's (and there are several other good articles on here as well): http://www.edmunds.com/honda/civic/2016/long-term-road-test/2016-honda-civic-monthly-fuel-economy-update-for-march.html But, I do agree with this 100%. I'm...
  13. My first fill up- MPG

    AND even though you might be tempted to do so, don't change your oil before the recommended interval, changing the break-in oil out early is not recommended.
  14. My first fill up- MPG

    Interesting considering that the '16 Civic Gas Tank Capacity is only 12.4 Gallons. I do wish it was bigger for long trips!
  15. My first fill up- MPG

    I wouldn't call 26 mpg, much less 20-24 mpg good for a '16 Civic that is supposed to average 35 mpg and top out at 41 mpg for non-turbo and 42 for turbo Highway. Mine IS still in its break-in period with only 220 miles and should improve once past the break-in and after it's first oil change...
  16. My first fill up- MPG

    I'm averaging 26 mpg but still only have 220 miles on mine, but not punch on the gas and keep an eye on the ambient meter keeping it green as much as possible. I have also tried with ECON mode on and off with not much difference. I do however use remote start in the mornings and it idles for...
  17. Hood Issue?

    So you think this is perfectly fine? That figures. Just like you think people are silly for being uneasy and uncomfortable with the piston recall and argued with several people including a mechanic about this (people have had problems already post inspection by the way). Just like you think...
  18. Hood Issue?

    Well, obviously the fenders are attached to the frame somewhere, they're not just floating/hovering on the sides of the car. As I stated, "under the hood".. Open the hood, look down at the fenders, there it is! Big gap, no attachment points. It's the first thing I noticed when I opened the...
  19. Hood Issue?

    The '16 Civics are definitely very flimsy. Just washing the car I can hear and feel the hood flexing like a soda/beer can. And have you noticed the fenders aren't even attached to the frame of the car under the hood? Most cars they are, and I'm not sure about past Civics but not this Civic...
  20. MSM / Gray Interior - What tone is your gray interior?

    Hmm. The one in the link does look a bit lighter than mine.. Thanks.
