  1. 2018 Type R Brake Rotor Wear

    Ok so I do not track the car and honestly don't drive it super hard in general. I do drive it on some light, but spirited drives, but shocked at the way these rotors have worn/grooved. Everything is stock aside from 1 tire set and I have around 30K miles. Is this normal? Pads are all nearing...
  2. Windshield Replacement

    I searched, but most were old threads with no recent posts. I am betting more people have replaced their windshields in the past 2 years so wondering what the current thoughts are. Got hit with guessing a rock and it did a good starburst, but shortly after before I could even get pulled off at...
  3. Warranty Extension due to fuel diluting oil? Type R or no?

    So I have heard by many online sources Honda is extending warranties on many new motors due the tuning and how it takes longer to warm up and uses more fuel longer which in turn has found to be diluting oil and causing issues over time. So my question is does this issue affect our Type R's or...
  4. Type R Maintenance Schedule

    Type R Maintenance Schedule So forgive me if I missed it, but didn't see anything when searching. By now many people hopefully like me are starting to see miles add up. I just crossed 20K not to long ago. Hating or should I say lack of trust in dealerships service people I have been doing my...
  5. Transmission and Oil leak (2 issues)

    Issue 1: So I don't really drive my Type R hard and it has never been to the track so at 19,000 mostly HWY miles I am learning of the transmission issue a little late. I thought I wasn't affected, but turns out I am. I had a 2nd gear grind very early on, but since it was the 1 time I figured it...
  6. CTR Exhaust Question (Are there any active options out there?)

    CTR Exhaust Question (Are there any active options out there?) Like the title says are there any active exhaust options for the CTR? Maybe that isn't the right term, but go easy on me as Ford guy... Ford calls it "active valve exhaust" on the new Mustangs. Basically you have 4 options/modes...
  7. 2018 Type R Oil Change Info

    Sorry if this has been done before, but I couldn't find a thread search. hmm am I missing one somewhere or is there not one? Anyway as the title says it is time for my first Type R oil change. What time of oil (weight) does Honda call for us to use? I assume for many reasons, but also the...
  8. Can these cars safely go through a non touch car wash?

    2018 Civic Type R This seems like a stupid question, but the Type R has a lot of little body panels and body pieces all around it that don't honestly seem the sturdiest... With that being said has any body gone through a laser (non touch) high power spray wash? If so was this problem free and...
  9. CRAP!! Help advice needed on blow tire and more situation. URGENT!

    As the title says I hit something and at the least blew my tire today on a HWY. Honestly have no idea what I hit. From what I can see after pulling off at the next exit is a flat rear tire. Cut in the sidewall. I am unfortunately not near my home either as I am around 100 miles away. Had it...
  10. Auto Locking Issues?

    Just as the title says I am looking for a second set of wheels and/or tires around the NC area. I may consider aftermarket so post or PM what you have, but I for sure am ready to consider a good deal on OEM. Thanks!
  12. "Instrument panel" icon in menu. What does it do or what is it for?

    As the title reads in the menu on the head unit it has an "Instrument panel" icon in the menu on the 2nd page. What does it do or what is it for? If you click it there are 3 "configurations", but when you click through them and select them one by one nothing seems to change. Pictures provided.
  13. Orange Blocks In The Suspension?!?

    So I hit a bump in the road or maybe a recessed manhole on the driver side of he car last night and I thought the car had exploded by the sound and the feel of the situation. So I immediately pulled over and did a look around and found nothing wrong with the tire or wheels. Well this morning in...
