I was debating getting a chauffer hat. :)

Hi everyone, odd request here. My mom is in town for a bit and it's difficult for her to get in/out of the CTR due to the seat bolster. I'm thinking I could get some sort of seat cushion that'd fit the passenger seat and elevate her so she doesn't have to deal with climbing over the bolster...

No confirmation on the shaft being broken, they started with actuators which didn't make a difference, once the calipers were swapped everything worked.

After new calipers and actuators, car is mobile again.... won't make the same mistake twice. Thanks for the insight and guidance, all.

I genuinely appreciate the education here, it's gonna cost me a few bucks to have it fixed but next time I'll be wiser.... Cuss far less too. :). Thank you!

Only thing I think I may have screwed up, on compressing the pistons, they compressed easily like I'd seen on the many videos on the task however I may have slightly turned them clockwise BEFORE compressing. Maybe that hosed it. Either way, flatbed will be here soon and it's off to a mechanic...

That's exactly how I did it, everything worked fine last night when the job was done, took the car for a drive, tested the parking brake, everything worked fine until today.

That's pretty messed up then, 40k miles on the car, activating maintenance mode was enough to snap that shaft? Both calipers are kicking back the error. I was able to turn the shaft one way to lock and it locked the brakes up, turning in the opposite direction freed it up. I'd think if the...

Slight update, now I've gotten the short to ground for the left rear as well, and now it only says actuator open on left rear. I've checked both harnesses, they appear OK. When I try to turn off the parking brake, I hear the actuator start, but I get an audible "squeak" from the passenger...

Changed the rear pads and rotors on my 2019 CTR last night. Used the Autel to put in maintenance mode, ran through all the steps necessary to swap the pads/rotors. Took it out of maintenance mode, flipped the e-brake back and forth a few times to test, bolted the wheels on and took it out. On...

Had to trim 2.5" off the board but it looks good now, fits perfectly.

Same process on the Civic Si IIRC, I had a 2018 before I got this.

Same kit, albeit the updated P/N: 06421-TGH-A03ZA: Guessing since the car is out of production the board piece is meant to cover all hatchbacks. Nothing a Dremel can't fix. Figure I'll just cut the bit off up to the foam brick, should be grand. Got the tire today so I'll have it mounted...

Got mine today, still need to get the tire for the wheel, only thing I found is the right flap of the board doesn't exactly fit. Guessing it's for cars without the "subwoofer" in the trunk? I'll look again later to see if I need to trim it or just cut it off.

I managed to get my FK8 at MSRP, 2019 model in early 2020... I've seen a few of the new model at MSRP as well, but TBH I like mine so much I genuinely have no desire to upgrade at this point. Despite the obvious reason (greed) I wonder if they mark them up so high as it puts some eye candy on...

I've made several round trips in my CTR between NY and GA (13 hour straight shot). I'm consistently amazed at the comfort of this car on long trips. MPG is 34/35 on average. My only bad experience was getting stuck on I-85N last week for 5 hours in traffic that was only moving at 1-2mph. Car...

Yea that single handedly reinforced my decision to get an impact gun and good floor jack.

Any chance you've just got some pebbles or other nonsense trapped behind the heat shield? I've got a 2019 and on occasion need to pull the front wheels to clean that crap out. I'm not sure if the later models addressed that issue.

They did not remove the wing on my CTR, they size the tint by laying it on the outside glass and trimming it, the wing gets in the way. Guy said it was more challenging to size it without doing that.

Hit this yesterday after getting the windows tinted on my 2019 CTR, as this was the post I got when I Googled it, figured I'd share. Only symptom was a flickering LCD in the dashboard and the keyless error after I shut the car off when I got home. I disconnected the battery and threw it on a...
