  1. Air conditioning condenser issue is real

    This is exactly what was happening to my car when I originally took it in, its because the refrigerant level is low, somewhere along your system its leaking, check my above post. My AC started doing this on my car at 39K miles
  2. Air conditioning condenser issue is real

    My compressor was failing, paper work from tech said 'front seal leaking' and that the entire compressor needed replacing, no evidence of damage from usual driving (rock chips etc.) It was about a $2K bill and my car was out of warranty by about 3 months.. luckily American Honda was generous and...
  3. Sun visor repair?/replace

    doesn't sound normal, I'd take it to the dealer and have it replaced under warranty
  4. Centering rings for aftermarket rims.

    I drove for a while in my previous car without centering rings, those rings should hold you over until youget the properly sized ones
  5. 2.0 vs 1.5T

    I'm not too worried about having the first model of a motor... the first iteration of the twin turbo six cylinder motors that BMW used in the 3.35i's [N54 i believe] are known to be the better motor [compared to the newer N55] for chipping and extracting more power. IIRC its because BMW...
  6. 6 Speed LX owners.. check it out

    Love those knobs.. had a 5 speed variant in my '06 manual. I recommend keeping something to insulate during the warmer months - i remember it getting hot as hell during summer
  7. 2016 Civic 1.5L Turbo Surges at Highway Speeds (45–70 MPH) S.B. #16-028

    I had to go back to my dealer to show the tech the problem.. if they can't diagnose it they won't fix it.. stupid IMO but next time just ask if you can have the tech with you in the car and show them
  8. Post your aftermarket wheel/tire set up

    Love the RPFs, i want them in 18" in black
  9. Window Tinting Behind Third Brake Light

    I had to have my rear window re-done and they also used the computer to cut the first film and it was cut way above the third brake light area, a bunch of light from cars behind was getting inside. When they re-did it i asked them not to cut out a spot for the third brake light and they got it...
  10. 2016 Civic 1.5L Turbo Surges at Highway Speeds (45–70 MPH) S.B. #16-028

    Got the TSB done and it fixed the problem. car doesn't surge anymore at all, thank god. had to beg the techs to do it bc they couldn't recreate the problem so I had to go down and show them during rush hour. I could barely find an open stretch of road to coast on but got it to surge for like a...
  11. Post your aftermarket wheel/tire set up

    that looks awesome
  12. LED Lights vs Halogen. Stats? Pictures? How much better?

    i would be very surprised if anyone preferred the halogen over the LEDs. That said i put in morimoto 5500K bulbs 35w and have been very impressed. I wish i knew someone with a touring so i could compare
  13. Being an Uber/LyftDriver

    Having been a drunk uber rider that puked once [managed to get it outside at least] I would not subject my car to that. fun fact, if you puke and it gets inside, the fee is like $200 something, but if you get it outside its only $50
  14. What did you do to your Civic today?!

    whats the point of tinting the sunroof? i don't mean any offense because i've thought of doing it myself but always just end up using the cover if it ever gets too sunny outside
  15. Passenger Window not working

    yesterday my passenger window stopped working. wouldn't roll down - i tried toggling the window lock feature, reached over and tried to use the passenger switch to lower it and got nothing. this morning it worked fine :doh: anyone else have this problem?
  16. Base Headlight Upgrade?

    you're better off getting an HID kit or some LED bulbs and swapping those in. the touring led headlights are expensive and i think the consensus is that the wiring is different between the two cars, making swapping them kind of a pain in the ass. check out the exterior cosmetic forums to see...
  17. 2017 Corolla

    i think the 2016 corollas look nice, comes standard with some cool things like the LEDs but upper level trims don't offer enough in my opinion, mainly the lackluster motor
  18. So did Honda get the CVT right on the 16' ?

    aside from the surging on the turbo models [a TSB has been released in regards to it] it works fine
  19. How to install HID kits with no risk of damaging factory wiring!

    consensus seems to be you might blow out a fuse and/or risk further damage to the stock wiring which can be a nightmare to figure out what exactly went wrong and you may end up having to replace the whole apparatus, getting pricey. relays are a good ~30 something dollar insurance policy to help...
  20. 1.5T vs Accord V6 vs Fit driving feel?

    fit might've felt more nimble bc its much lighter than the accord. i think you'll find the civic falls somewhere in between those two
