  1. What temperature does the radiator fan come on?

    I'm a little late to this discussion but I wanted to indicate what I have experienced in my 2018 Hatch sport 6 MSP. I have a Scan Gauge which provides coolant temp in parameter CT1, and the return coolant temp in parameter CT2. I have driven the car over 65,000 miles and noted that the coolant...
  2. Snow tires? or high performance all-seasons?

    I see you live in Astoria, Queens. I am in Brooklyn. Unless you need to drive everyday or up hills, I would keep all season tires on the car. I recently bought all season replacements for my 2018 Civic Sport 6 spd MT. They are plenty good in the snow...

  5. Where to get “OEM” replacement tire??

    I had a similar situation with my 2018 Hatch sport. Hit a pothole and bubbled the sidewall. I purchased the 235/40R18 Vredestein Quatrac 5 from Tire rack as a less expensive replacement with 7,000 miles on the vehicle. I have over 50,000 miles now with the Continentals and Vredestein and have...

  7. Quoted $500 plus for 15k mile service on 2019 Si

    The air filter and wipers are rather low level service items which most owners can take care of by themselves. If one has the time (1 hr at the most) you can easily google the procedure and install yourself. If you don't want to pay so much have it done, go to your auto parts store (Autozone...

  10. AC repairs and recharge

    I am the owner of a 2018 Civic Sport Hatch. The A/C began failing (49,500 mi.) getting warmer and warmer over 1 month (8/2020). I have read all the problems trying to get Honda to apply the TSB 19-091 which addresses failed condensers for 10 years. What I did was to first call Honda America...
  11. My girlfriend hates my Si and I understand why

    The tires will make some difference but the 40 aspect ratio will always be hard. I've driven manual transmissions over 50 years in NYC. To smooth out her ride whenever she is in the car, try short shifting 1st to 2nd (2000 rpm) and allow car to come to speed in 1st (30 to 40% throttle) 5-8 mph...
  12. Scangauge Xgauge Codes

    I have only used CT1 which appears to be coolant temp before the radiator. When fully warmed up it sits at about 175 deg and holds steady until the engine is loaded to positive boost pressure (climbing hills, bridges) cools down quickly on the descent back to 175. Max temp I have ever seen is...
  13. Scangauge Xgauge Codes

    Got this reply in January for my 2018 Civic Sport 6 Spd The 2018 Honda models do not report coolant temperature or intake air temperature the standard OBDII way anymore. In order to monitor these sensors you will need to enter an XGauge code. XGauge is a standard feature on the ScanGaugeII that...
