  1. 1234yf refrigerant contaminated with r134a

    Well, I have bad news for you. If you've ran your A/C since doing this, your condenser is going to have to be replaced and your system completely flushed, compressor oil completely drained, desiccant replaced, etc. See, the problem is that R-1234yf system condensers have super small passages for...
  2. I need your help/advice

    Maybe the strut or other suspension component popping in and out of place on the side with the damage? Maybe even the CV axle not locking in.
  3. Question on front brake pads

    Are you sure those are even front brake pads? They look like the rear pads to me. Hmmm... guess I was wrong.
  4. I need your help/advice

    That's an engine mount if it's happening during acceleration and slowing down. If have the engine mounts rechecked as well check for any broken welds or cracks in those areas.
  5. First mods recommendation

    I have the same car in white. It came with HPF side skirts, red mats, and that plastic trunk liner. I went Rockford mono block amp with a single Kicker Comp CVT 10" Sub, replaced door speakers and tweeters, sound deadening and sound proofing on everything, LED headlight bulbs (high and low...
  6. Window Tinting

    Nothing on my Si yet, but with my Prelude I settled on 18% for the doors and 15% on the back windows. It was black with black leather interior, so the tint looked much darker from the outside than it really was.
  7. Videos including 10th gen Honda Civics [dashcam, POV, racing, saves, close calls, accidents, road rage and normal driving]

    This post should be called "Civic sedan and hatch owners are garbage drivers."
  8. What color is your Civic and if you had to get something else, what would it be?

    The white is the hardest and most expensive to do any body work to and they never quite get the 3 part paint mixture right when they shoot it.
  9. Would you get a Civic if your daily commute was 2 miles?

    The Si hates being used as a daily short distance commuter. You gotta take her to the cuts and let her run it out at least once or twice a week if commuting such a short distance daily. The Si will begin to run horribly until you do.
  10. Window Tinting

    If it makes you feel unsafe, then it probably is for you. Any modifications made to a personal vehicle should not do one thing and that is make you nervous about your safety. I say stick with a tint level that isn't weighing on your mind when you're supposed to be concentrating on driving. I had...
  11. How does my upgrade plan sound?

    It varies from situation to situation. Really anything other than a stock tune can because the stock tune limits the horsepower to factory spec and lower given conditions like heat soak or higher density air in the cooler months. This is why the power band is so long and drawn out with no...
  12. Too Old for The Type R?

    I'm 42 and I felt a little too old to even be driving around in my 2019 Si coupe at first, but I've gotten over it. I've personally never been into hatches and I don't like the way the Type-R looks, however, I test drove one for sh-ts and giggles and HOLY SH-T is far thing fun to drive! My Si is...
  13. Is this too bright?

    I did the same with my 2019 Si Coupe, except I went amber on the fog lights. I went with Sealights latest LED models for the high beam and low beams, but just recently received a recall notice about them saying that they have been found to be too bright and pose a safety issue for incoming...
  14. Just did my first oil change on the Civic!

    The detergents used in GF-5 oils have calcium based detergents that have been shown to significantly increase the instances of LSPI in smaller, high density, direct injection turbo charged engines, especially when using anything less than premium grade gas. GF-6 oils use alternatively based...
  15. Just did my first oil change on the Civic!

    I only use ILSAC GF-6A standard oil on my 2019 Civic Si now. The popularization of turbocharged engines has led to a new focus on turbocharger-specific standards. The primary purpose of GF-6 is to combat problems with LSPI (low speed premature ignition), a common issue with turbocharged engines...
  16. Front SI Badge Removal

    Well then, I apologize for this. I'll try to be more aware of this in the future. Thank you.
  17. Front SI Badge Removal

    Quit sticking up for your dad.
  18. Front SI Badge Removal

    I don't look at the dates.
  19. P0442 - Emission problem and rev match problem: PRL Intake fault?

    You know what. It was actually the AEM now that I think of it.
  20. Anyone know how to get both doors of the coupe unlocked from keyless entry?

    Go into the vehicle settings and I'm not sure where off the top of my head, but there is a setting that says something along the lines of unlock passenger door when driver door unlocks. Try that.
