  2. Manual trans first time driver impressions (hatchback sport) (pics)

    Your Civic has Hill Start Assist. So there is no need to use that brake hold. Switching into the first on hills may require the slightest touch once you reach the bite point. Your car will not roll into the vehicle behind you. In a few weeks you will not care who is behind you.
  3. Manual trans first time driver impressions (hatchback sport) (pics)

    Good looking car. It sounds like you are overthinking the mechanics of shifting gears. Just focus on getting from 1st to 2nd . Drive your car a little extra on your days off the next few weeks. You will be fine.
  4. 1st and 2nd gear question

    This is your first car with a manual transmission and it's been a week so far. Do not worry about the drivers behind you at a stop. Shifting to first and then to second will get smoother pretty quickly. Before you know it you will be shifting without even thinking about it.

  6. Air and cabin air filters

    I changed the in cabin filter on a 2013 Honda Accord and it took about 2 minutes from start to finish. A very easy job on Hondas. Do not pay to have the in cabin filter changed.

  8. Thoughts and reviews on CVT vs Manual

    I purchased a Honda Civic 6MT Sedan last summer and I love it. I test drove a few Accords and Civics each a CVT. The Accord was the model I expected to purchase and it was fantastic. My wife droves our 2013 Accord and the ride felt similar. I was surprised that I preferred the Civic as my...

    My wheels touched New Jersey roads for the first time today. Most of the ride was fun rolling between gears as rolled along 3, 17, 80 , 95, and 495. 495 was the road I did not like. I was on and off the clutch about 20 times while in 1st gear only driving 15 minutes to get to the exit . After...

    I took delivery of my Civic EX-T 6 speed on July 1st. There were not many available in the NY Metro Area at that time. I looked at dealer inventory and saw there were only about 5 dealers who had the EX-T manual. I test drove a EX-T 6 speed in Poughkeepsie NY and purchased the car from in...

  14. Buyer's Remorse on Type R, anyone?

    Try to drive your car everyday for the next month and you will be just fine with the clutch. It takes a few weeks and then it will all click. Driving a manual transmission vehicle and working the clutch is muscle memory.

    I drove my Civic 700 miles the past week. I was able to let the car go up to 90 mph in 6th gear and drive though the city of Saratoga Springs switching between 1st and 2nd gears multiple times. Driving though the Adirondack Mountains with a 6 speed manual was much better as it saved my brakes.

  19. Is Honda Care worth buying?

    My brother purchased a Honda Civic in 2006 and I am unsure if he has even changed the oil. That was a joke as I know he does not follow any sort of maintenance schedule on his car.
