  1. My ‘19 Si joined the 300+ HP club

    Thanks. I came across another thread mentioning fitment of a Type R clutch with one of these remapped Si's. I have very sad memories of an 8G I had remapped - diesel - from 138 --> 190 hp, torque up substantially as well. I had no end of problems. Modified HD clutch required removal of the...
  2. My ‘19 Si joined the 300+ HP club

    How is the clutch holding up to the substantial increase in power? Generally Honda clutches seem to be made of chocolate, hence why I steer away from modifications - could cost a small fortune to put right again. Thanks, Al.
  3. The most annoying thing about the 2020 type R

    You cannot turn the lights off on UK ones - they illuminate automatically. Best you can do is switch to sidelamps. Once on, they're on until the car decides it's light enough to switch them off. I've just confirmed now, you can switch to sidelamps which extinguishes the main headlamps, that's...
  4. The most annoying thing about the 2020 type R

    Parking sensors .... erm, OK .... I use them a lot, and agreed, they're very useful, but ... literally as mentioned, and similar to the lane departure warnings, I'll often have to 'disable' them, particularly if the roads have a lot of spray / are wet. Forgot that with my 1st 10g - just...
  5. The most annoying thing about the 2020 type R

    That's very true. Still annoying just the same!! Al.
  6. The most annoying thing about the 2020 type R

    For me, the auto-high beam is easily avoided. Parking sensors on the 10G, I assume are similar on the FK8? THEY can be annoying, particularly in the rain - kicking off for no apparent reason. Another I find annoying is the wheel vibration when swapping lanes without indicating - I will always...
  7. CoVID-19 Isolation? Start your Civic

    Always good practice to give a vehicle a little run. I'm in UK, so it's TOTAL lockdown apart from essential food / medical supplies unless you're part of Emergency crews / essential support. I often travel internationally for work, so am obliged to leave it for up to 5 weeks. I regularly leave...
  8. Clutch fluid / brake fluid reservoir

    Must admit I was curious about this. Only found one fluid reservoir. I'm certain that Honda have both done the economics - how much they can save - and the reliability checks to justify one reservoir. Al.
  9. Bulb Guide for 2017 Hatchback

    Thanks. Last thing I want is to damage something just making it 'a little brighter'. Al.
  10. New Here? Introduce Yourself!

    Hi Radek. I'm new here as well - WELCOME. I like the side-by-side photo of the 'sedan' with the 'hatch' - good reference for people wanting to see the differences. Al.
  11. Bulb Guide for 2017 Hatchback

    Possibly a stupid question, but is it easy to access these bulbs without damaging the surround - flat blade screwdriver and twist for example? Thanks, Al.
  12. New Here? Introduce Yourself!

    I'm relatively new here. WELCOME. Quite a potted history there! Hopefully the collision avoidance technology will help you to not have the same problems as before! Hope you enjoy your new ride. Al.
  13. Daily Commute to Work (One Way). How many CivicX Spotted?

    Over here 'across the pond' the 10G Civic is only available as hatchback, now including the 'R'. My commute is across a small town where I still appear to be the only owner!! I had ordered a 'Brilliant Sporty Blue' (as the blue is sadly called here) Sport, but it was delayed, and delayed ...
  14. New Here? Introduce Yourself!

    Hi Everyone. I'm new on here - normally on CIVNFO forum. I'm from UK, mainly in UK and have just recently become the proud owner of a white Civic Prestige (hatchback). So far most is excellent. A few too many accident avoidance nannies, but I'm learning to live with that. Al.
