  1. 2017 Civic. Ambient Light Sensor rattled. It fell into the dash when I removed the cover

    I've been having issues recently with an annoying rattle from the Ambient Light Sensor (at least I believe thats the culprit). I removed the cover with a flat head screwdriver, and the sensor immediatly fell down a few inches, and now rests where I can barely get my pinky to touch it. Other...
  2. Oil change and service interval currently falls around january. Possible to delay/advance it 6 months?

    My Civic is now due for it's last oil change and service before the Warranty expires. I plan to start changing my own oil and doing services on my own from now on. Only problem is, since this car was purchased new in january 2017, the annual oil change and service minder wants me to change the...
  3. Milky oil, yet full coolant reservoir.

    Removed the oil cap on my 2017 Civic 1.5T Sedan today and got very worried when I saw a milky substance on my (aftermarket) oil cap. I had an oil change back in january, and this is the first time inspecting the oil cap since then. My immediate fear was a broken headgasket since a milky oil cap...
  4. Only using 91 Octane in FK8?

    I'm considering swapping my 2017 civic 1.5L sedan to a 2017 civic type R if I am getting a good deal on the swap (which I might just get). In Norway, we obviously use use the European method of measuring Octane, and pretty much the only gasoline that is available for sale here is 95RON, which...
  5. Is this damage 100% repairable?

    Ok so I am concidering trading out my -17 Sedan with a CVT to a -18 hatchback with a manual. Long story short, there are not many Civics for sale in Norway, and the only manual that falls within my affordability when taking a trade in is one they offer as a demo car at one dealership. I was...
  6. People who traded their CVT for Manual (or otherway), why did you do it? Do you regret it?

    I've had my Civic with the CVT for exactly 1 year now and I am extremely pleased with it. Over time I have installed countless aestetic mods and taken care of it like a baby. This last month I finally moved into performance upgrade territory with Ktuner, PRL Short ram and a Sway Bar. I know the...
  7. [Solved] What do you do when oil level gets above the max level on the dipstick?

    Last time I got my oil changed, it got filled to the max level on the dipstick. Not an uncommon thing to do on oil changes. However due to the slight oil dillution that is occuring with these engines, the level gets pushed slightly above the max level on the dipstick over time. I change my oil...
  8. Standard tunes when using a Short Ram Intake?

    I recently bought Ktuner 1.2 as well as a PRL Short Ram Intake. These arrived in the mail a few days ago and I haven't gotten around to installing them yet. Information I have found up untill now has been that running a SRI with the included tunes should be fine. I just now found an older thread...
  9. Schedule for maintainance

    I have searched the forums and with Google trying to find a schedule for when to do different maintainance on my 2017 1.5T Sedan. Most of the replies are either "read the manual" or "The Maintainance Minder will tell you when the next service is", which is not what I'm looking for. The manual...
  10. Exhaust system to improve sound without compromising emissions?

    I own a 2017 Civic 1.5T sedan with the CVT. After doing some research I decided against purchasing a high flow cat downpipe, due to the draconic emission laws in my country. Still, I feel like I want a little more "feel" out of my exhaust note than the quiet and comfortable stock note. I am new...
  11. How much will a PRL downpipe affect emissions?

    I am concidering buying the street version of the PRL Downpipe/Frontpipe combo: https://prlmotorsports.com/civicxstreetdownpipefrontpipe.aspx In my country, there are very draconic laws about modifying cars beyond stock, especially anything related to emissions. I'm therefor a bit wary about...
  12. Tuning the 1.5T with a CVT?

    Hello fellow Honda owners. I have been driving my Honda Civic Sedan since 2017, and I love it as much as I did on day 1. I take great care of my car, changing oil twice as often as recommended, washing it weekly, etc. The model I have is with the CVT transmission which I know is probably the...
  13. No trunk release. Aftermarket modification possible?

    Hello. First post here so I hope I'm in the right cathegory. I have a Civic 4 door sedan 2017 edition. I have the mid level trim which in Norway is called "Elegance". This trim level has no trunk release on the trunk itself. It only has a trunk release on the driver door, or by using the key...
