So what you're saying is instead of properly maintaining the engine, you let it wear out and then compensate for that wear with higher viscosity oils to maintain the fluid damper between parts? What are you gonna do when 20w50 doesn't cut it anymore? lol. You gonna start running gear oil? 70w90...

Parts department giving you the wrong side axle boot, a tale as old as time. Nice vid.

That's very low mileage. I'm kinda surprised they kicked it back.

What is the mileage on your car? Do you go to the dealer for regular maintenance?

From what I'm seeing, all these issues are supplier based. Everyone needs to remember, Honda doesn't really make parts, they make cars. I know that hard for some people to comprehend but for example, they don't have a "HONDA" factory somewhere that makes brake pads, they have a brake pad company...

lmao. This is very accurate. As someone who has to write the repair orders to FIGHT AGAINST lemon law cases, this is the best comment. We have 3 attempts to fix the customer complaint issue IF THE ISSUE CAN BE DUPLICATED. For an example, if you come in saying the a/c doesn't blow cold, but...

Injectors for the 1.5T are: 16010-59B-315 I believe the new part number is now a kit that includes the pipe, where as before they were separate.

Most Carplay/Android Auto issues result by using aftermarket usb cables (use genuine Apple or Android product) or this happens after a phone software version update. Make sure your phone has the latest software versions and un-pair/re-pair the phone to the car. This fixes most issues. Other...

There is an audio unit software update for this issue, TSB 18-001. If this is ONLY happening when you turn the wheel, you probably have a srs cable reel issue. It's a wiring harness connection part that is behind the steering wheel.

No clue what you are picking up on here. I'm almost curious if you somehow found a way to tune into the evap canister doing it's job with the engine running? That's the only thing back there.

At about 30k miles, you got your money's worth out of the rear pads. I typically see pads last ABOUT 20-30k miles if you daily the car and drive smooth. The rears do wear out faster than the front on all 10th gen civics, not just CTR. Dudes that cosplay as racecar drivers in traffic tend to burn...

You should be fine. The dealership is really not this scary place everyone has made it out to be. I just think there is A TON of misconception out there and a lack of information paired with front of house staff that is burned out on customer service. I've had to stop several conversations...

I have no idea on the status of parts back orders, that's more of a parts department question. I've never seen a CTR compressor fail, not saying they don't, I just only have like 20-30 CTR's in my local customer base. I have heard nothing about a redesigned compressor, it would seem odd though...

They will tell you that you will have to pay 1hr of diag up front incase it is not covered under warranty, it's standard. If it goes warranty you pay nothing, but they tell you ahead of time to agree to pay for the diagnosis should it not be under warranty. They have to prove your mods caused...

Yeah, let me clarify, it is technically a warranty extension. So they aren't doing this repair if you aren't having issues with the compressor leaking. It's good for 10yrs/unlimited miles, if you make it that long without it leaking you'll be fine until the wheels fall off it. It's essentially...

I mean, it helps lol. It's not like we don't know what the flex kit is for. "It's for the cheaper gas" okay guy lol.

Car I fixed this week was a 2021 CTR with 14k miles on it. Completely beat to sh!t and covered in ebay fake carbon fiber wrap. If you are on here dude, your car made me cry at how destroyed it was within 14k miles. I wish there was a car enthusiast version of child protective services I could...

The absolute BEST advice I can give you is to save up and buy a good, lowest mileage you can 10th gen civic Si. With a tune, you can get tons of power that will be more than enough for you to get into trouble with. You live in CA, you start playing around with older Hondas you will just get Ref...

Dude 4hrs labor is a lot for that starter. I would feel guilty charging 2.5hrs. It takes like 45min.

Pull the ignition coil packs and see if there is any rust on them. I did this exact issue on a CTR this week. P0302 misfire cyl 2, found there was rust on the coil pack in the spark plug tube. Moisture in the tube somehow killed the coil. Some other dingus in here had a similar issue he was nerd...
