  1. Transmission Fluid Change 2017 Si

    Yes my write-up is for the manual transmission. CVTs are a bit different and I would imagine they use larger bolts to drain and fill.
  2. Transmission Fluid Change 2017 Si

    For the 10th gen (2016-20s) civics, the fill level bolt is small, 10 MM with an even smaller washer on it. I am unsure of the 2020 models but I don't see why it would change that much. a 17MM Bolt is a big boy, capable of holding big parts together. The Fill Level Bolt just needs to plug a...
  3. Notice leak during oil change

    there is a picture in that thread i linked. In short, there are two rods coming out of the transmission. These rods spin the front tires for the front-wheel drive car. The passenger side rod travels a short distance then hits a round bearing that is mounted to the frame/car. It continues thru...
  4. Notice leak during oil change

    Hey OP, this looks similar to what I've had replaced twice on my 2017. Intermediate shaft bearing on the passenger side. Go ahead and double check this when you get it in the air next. Picture can be found here: https://www.civicx.com/forum/threads/something-finally-broke.52670/ I was chasing...
  5. Clutch Install (Phoenix area)

    I hear you there. I can verify he has done a 10th gen clutch/flywheel install and it is working as intended. I doubt many shops can say the same due to: Who drives a clutch these days? Car is new, why do you need a replacement so soon? Glad to be a guinea pig. Tell Dave a guy on the forums...
  6. Clutch Install (Phoenix area)

    Yes it is fantastic. There is definitely something to be said about the break in period. The clutch pedal was HEAVY the first week but evened out... probably 50/50 the parts breaking in and me getting used to it. Engagement is a lot smoother and chatter is down about 80% from install day. Way...
  7. Clutch Install (Phoenix area)

    will do. picking it up today or tomorrow. clutch is laying the foundation for further upgrades. W1 turbo, intercooler and turbo-back exhaust coming in the spring.
  8. Clutch Install (Phoenix area)

    thanks for getting back to me. I watched a few install videos and yeah, far beyond what I would be comfortable with using jack stands and not a car lift. I could do it if provided a lift but decided to just pay a shop. Funny enough, I dropped the car off this morning at a local shop. Should be...
  9. Clutch Install (Phoenix area)

    Any update on this? I am also in the Phoenix area and have a clutchmasters fx300 and flywheel on the way. Any advice you can share with someone about to walk the same path? What was the price tag for labor?
  10. 11th gen si l15 into 10th gen si

    I was a bit confused as to why the newer Si has some form of VTEC again. VTEC, in the old NA engines, was a solution to get more air thru the block. Newer Civics have turbos. Turbo is also a solution to get more air thru the block. Pretty much every manufacturer has variable valve timing in...
  11. Arizona Stock 2017 Si Parts: Intake and Rear Motor Mount

    I have been keeping stock parts as upgrades come along. Not sure if anyone wants the stock SI intake or Rear Motor Mount but I'll list them here just in case. North Phoenix, pickup only. They've only seen about 10K miles. Should be good for anyone who tossed theirs out or needs a replacement...
  12. Fender Shrouds Concept, You Like?

    Want to Buy. I've been a 27won fan since purchasing the intake and want more.
  13. Gas range dropping really fast! (2017 Civic)

    Something else to consider is Winter Gas. Fuel Companies change their mixture during the winter to help deal with the cooler temperatures. Here we are in late November, and I noticed that @JumBie is in Toronto. In general, summer gas has more energy in it than the winter counterpart. A few...
  14. Oil changes

    Like Honda_RacerX said, 0W 20 oil is very thin and most, if not all, will be synthetic. Grab a bottle of a name you recognize: Mobil 1, Castrol, Pennzoil, ect. and you'll be fine. As long as you don't get any of the 'high mileage' flavors you're all set.
  15. Fuel blow by 1,5T

    Spend some time on the website researching the term 'oil dilution' and you'll find everything you need. At this point, it is a well documented issue and an a ECU fix from Honda has been released. Consensus is cold weather and short trips makes the problem worse. Solutions include checking the...
  16. Water in Intake Advice

    I installed my 27 Won CAI this weekend. And while I am not too worried about water in Arizona, I cannot imagine a scenario where it will suck water outside of seeing if the car floats. It is a neat design and I voted for it with my money. It is like a SRI with a cool air snorkel + snorkel bypass...
  17. Mishimoto Oil Catch Can doing its job!

    That is a good score in the catch can. Mine has very little in it due to the mild AZ weather. I think it provides peace of mind if nothing else. Some say it isn't necessary and I'll believe them when they dump that sludge into their air intake where it belongs:)
  18. Boomba Recirculating blow off valve not making any noise

    Allow me to save you a bunch of time researching on the forms: A true blow off valve is bad for car. That is the one that makes the surge-pshhhh noise iconic with turbo cars. Again, this is bad for the engine and is discouraged if you plan on having the car for any length of time. If you have...
  19. Here's Why This Honda Civic is Worth $1,000,000!!!

    Wow ya'll may have missed the mark. This video was posted April 1st, 2019. Funny or not, youtubers will troll on April Fools Day.
  20. How can brake hold be used to hill start 1st/reverse on the Si?

    I am not talking about engaging the system with the buckle. This is just an observation of something odd my car does- and the other cars may do it, too. I did it on Friday just to make sure I wasn't posting bad info. The car will brake hold for 1 second- then let go. It is the strangest thing...
