  1. Odd issue with car during a heat wave.

    Good point on the water level, I'll check mine in the morning.
  2. new tires

    Have you thought of going to Costco? They usually have good prices and excellent brands, plus they have their free nitrogen fill for anyone to use (I haven't seen them check for membership to fill your tires). Only downside is if your not a member and I'd be cautious of having a friend do it...
  3. What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

    Where to mount? I picked up this NiteIze universal phone mount. Big questions, where to mount it? I was thinking the far side of the infotainment screen out of the way, yet still able to reach and see with ease. Your input would be helpful. Link to product...
  4. NEW AC CONDENSER LEAKING TSB 19-091

    Good work finding and posting.
  5. AUTO CRUISE CONTROL (ACC)

    ACC issues when driving. Spoke with a Honda Technician, the special tech that travels to all the dealerships solving the tough problems. He explained to me about the difference between the X-Gen and the XI-Gen ACC systems. The two are completely different. X-Generation he stated is a first...
  6. Cruise control, Forward collision, and lane departure systems not working.

    Look here at this thread. https://www.civicx.com/forum/threads/radar-obstructed.33953/ You can use a plastic pry tool to pop the cover off. There's YT videos showing how. I did this on the right side to replace my horn WITHOUT removing the entire front cover.
  7. What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

    RECORDED ANNOYING BUZZING NOISE I recorded that annoying buzzing noise in the center of my dash near the windshield. Still occurring after five repair attempts by Honda. There’s several threads on this and putting it here in hopes you can assist. Seems many have had this similar issue...
  8. My 2017 Hatchback Dash Rattle Thread

    SAME PROBLEM FROM DAY ONE I wish I saw this thread MUCH earlier! I’ve had the same buzzing noise at the center of the dash at the windshield. This happens between 1,250-2,000 rpm when the car is cold or is started after sitting for a while. I’ve had five trips to my dealer with no luck...
  9. What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

    Following up after my road trip to Orlando. After 2,100 miles of driving, averaged 40.3 mpg. Cumulative low was 37.5 mpg (traffic and local driving), but gained it all back heading home. The last day of driving, 5-hours worth, averaged just over 48 mpg!!! Best advice for long trips, don't...
  10. What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

    Reading most of the responses here and "rwk226" is correct about the "many factors." I've found the same thing with the CVT, that if you stay below ~73 mph, you get the best mpg. Also, the more highway type driving versus city provides the best mpg as well as avoiding traffic congestion when...
  11. What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

    Would have been 47.3 but we hit traffic on the DC Beltway. Waze routed us from Pottstown, PA through York, PA and U.S. 29 to Fairfax, versus I-95. BEST ADVICE - Try not to drive above 72 mph. I believe anything above will degrade your mpg, provided you are aiming for the best you can get...
  12. What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

    I took my EX Hatch to the dealer for warranty service. I had this buzzing sound emanating from the under the center of the dash between 1500-2000 RPMs. Plus the infotainment screen blacked out, then reset when car started the next day. Infotainment checked out fine, buzzing was the kick plate...
  13. Is there really even a point to winter store these cars?

    If you live in an area where they use the brine/sugarbeet solution, it's best to really give your underbody a good wash down once things dry up. There was an issue of brake lines failing because the salt corroded the lines. The recommendation was to put a sprinkler under your car and let it...
  14. Adaptive cruise control

    Just seeing this as I hate how the ACC works from time to time. It's great when your on the highway, but I use cruise a lot on surface streets and the ACC over reacts. Two things I hate about it, the 5+ speed change when holding the button too long. I'm used to driving with the cruise a lot...
  15. WOW..ASIAN MODEL OIL REQUIREMENT

    Good point, also be sure to use the proper API spec too aside from SAE weight.
  16. Lease Buyout?

    Go watch a Kevin Hunter video on YouTube. He explains the best options for you. one option he states is to finish the term and keep. Or sell it and make some money. Why have the dealer make the profit for their miscalculation.
  17. WOW..ASIAN MODEL OIL REQUIREMENT

    Here’s my recommendation as a former Mobil Lube Oil Sales Engineer. While in warranty, use what is recommended just in case something happens. Should Honda analyze the oil and find out it’s not “Honda”, it’s on you. Once it’s out of warranty, use Mobil 1 Full Synthetic. I use it exclusively...
  18. What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

    Washed and waxed. Wax is Zymöl Japon.
  19. What did you do to your Civic today? (II)

    Looks nice. How well do they keep debris out from the sides? My biggest peeve with 10th Gen are all the nooks and crannies, to easy for debris to get trapped. My old 7th Gen wasn’t this bad.
