I have complained about the lack of heat on or 2016 Civic. The car is not fit for Canadian winters. The problem has finally made it to the mainstream media: https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/honda-crv-civic-heater-1.5960676

That, and the lack of heat, are the most aggravating problems in our 2016 Civic. I think the walk-away locking works on the 150 KHz frequency band and seems susceptible to interference. Exiting the car in slow motion and standing still when slamming the door shut seems to help. I'm usually...

I had originally thought the battery used in the the Canadian Civic was a Group 35. It is not. It is a rather oddball group L2 battery which crosses to a BCI Group 47. Interestingly, all of the aftermarket battery online product catalogues always specify a Group 51 battery for Canadian Civics...

Attached is TSB HSB-D-1-19. Just changed my rear brakes on my 2016 Civic with 40,000 KM. All maintenance was performed as per the maintenance monitor.

I have a 2.0L (bone-stock) with the same problem. If the outside temperature is less than -10 ~ -15C, I can drive the car in an urban environment and the temperature gauge does not come off the ‘pin’. It does, however, heat up if driven at highway speeds, like you stole it. Honda has made...

Here is a photo of a non-Group 51 battery in my Canadian Civic.

It's the foolish Group 51 battery that Honda uses. Thankfully, the Canadian Civics have been fitted with something bigger, maybe a Group 24.

The walk-away beeping has plagued our 2016 EX since new. Several trips to the dealer, body control module (BCM) changed, nothing has solved the problem. I even get the rapid beeps when getting into and closing the door. The dealer has scant troubleshooting literature from Honda. I had several...

Me, too. The keyless system was designed and produced by Continental, the rubber, automotive electronics, and storm door company. Honda should stay away from German vendors. You would think they learned their lesson with the ZF 9-speeed transmission in the TLX. The 9-speed thread on the...

I get the same beeping when getting in the car and when exiting. I cannot figure out why it would be beeping when I am sitting in the driver's seat with the keys in my hand. Bottom line: it is a poorly designed system and it is doubtful if Honda will ever come up with a fix. After several...

Do the 1.5's have a supplementary electric HVAC heater? I can safely say that the 2.0's do not. Our commute is a 15 minute stop-and-go urban commute. When the outside temperature is -20 C or less, the engine temperature gauge never comes off the virtual pin. There is barely enough heat to safely...

I used the car all weekend and didn't use two sets of keys. The walk-away lock failed almost all the time. When I closed the door and it failed, I would stand still, re-open and close door and it would work perfectly. So I am wondering if it is a timing issue. The BCM and keyfob are not in...

Did the dealer perform the piston snap ring recall on your car? If so, maybe they didn't seal the oil pan properly.

They never replaced the FOBs. With the continuing problems, I wonder if they are part of the problem. Both FOBs have an equal probability of failing. It is interesting that you have never had a problem. Mine is an early build date (Nov 2015), so maybe the updated the FOBs in later builds. Just...

I have been doing some experimentation on the walk-away locking after the dealer replaced the body control module with the updated version. Even after replacement, I often experienced the fast beeping when exiting the car. I would also get the beeping when getting into the car, after being...

Honda is clearly out of their league when it comes to lines of software code.

UPDATE: After a few weeks of using the new BCM, I can report that issues with the walk-away locking are not solved. Still getting the error beeps. While the dealer and myself were diligently working on solving the problem, I received a call from Honda Canada. I had called them a few weeks...

The factory neglected to connect the air conditioning evaporator drain. Instead of the condensation draining underneath the car, it was draining into the right side floor pan. I have Weathertech floor mats and never noticed the water until I could hear it sloshing when coming to, and...

I don't recommend the car when people ask. Too many problems: interior flood, walk-away locking works 50% of the time, lots of software gremlins.

My walk-away locking has never worked property. After doing battle with Honda Canada, they suggested that the dealer replace the body control module. The part number on the repair order is 38809-TBA-C03, a different part number than others have mentioned. Perhaps it is the Canadian version. The...
