  1. Any other sedan owners getting water inside their trunk lid?

    Any updates on your leak? Mine is doing the same - if parked outside during average to above average rainfall it will appear to collect water inside the panel itself. I can't tell where it's getting in, but maybe someplace on the right side since it seems to accumulate on that side and then...
  2. People suck

    While it seems like a pain for daily use, I would gladly use this when parked at the airport or train parking lot for extended periods of time!
  3. Touring subwoofer rattles.

    I wedged a bunch of foam in between the metal deck and the plastic cover - worked great for a while but now the rattle is back. So I intend to pull the plastic cover, apply some dynamat, reinstall, then stuff fresh foam up around the 3rd brake light to see if that helps. Any special tips to...
  4. Rear suspension creaking

    Might be tough for me to find by myself. It's hard to compress anything when working on it in the garage. I pulled the wheel off and looked around but everything looks correct and nothing looks like it might binding. Maybe I'll check the torque on everything the next time I rotate the tires...
  5. Rear suspension creaking

    Same here. Anytime we have people riding in the back seat it creaks. First time it happened I pulled over because I thought I had something caught up in the rear driver's side tire well. Like maybe the liner had dropped down or something. Found nothing visibly wrong and ended up driving all...
  6. Damaged in transit

    At the risk of sounding like a conspiracy theorist....did you see the car yourself? I've seen/heard very similar stories but in the end it was due to one dealer selling the car out from under the other dealer. Or perhaps how bad is the damage? Just something to think about.
  7. Climate control fan whines when starting up in cooler weather

    Same thing - ours is a '16 Touring sedan with about 17k on it. Purchased around August 1st and has been making the sound more or less since new.
  8. Climate control fan whines when starting up in cooler weather

    Picked it up Thursday evening. We were cautiously optimistic since it was quiet on the drive home but wanted to wait until Friday before we made the call. I'm happy to say that after the 130-mile drive to/from work yesterday that the sound seems to be completely gone! To recap, the howling...
  9. Climate control fan whines when starting up in cooler weather

    Is it located on the paperwork once the job is finished? They are keeping it again tonight to test it out a few more times to be sure the problem is solved and I should be picking it up on the way home from work tomorrow evening.
  10. So Used To Driving W/ ECON On

    We religiously used the ECON mode on our '07 Civic as well as our '13 Insight. So after picking up our '16 Civic I started out immediately using ECON at all times. Well a couple of months ago I glanced down and saw that we were getting a little better mileage on the current tank of gas than...
  11. Climate control fan whines when starting up in cooler weather

    Fast forward to this afternoon. We dropped it off for them to work on tomorrow. They determined the refrigerant line has collapsed to some degree - I guess the high pressure line is sleeved inside the low pressure line and eliminates the need for two separate lines? Either way they are...
  12. Recommend any particular radar detector?

    I have the Cobra iRad-500 for our cars. There is an accompanying app that allows you to connect your phone to the detector via bluetooth which in effect turns the phone into the display. You can then put the detector into full dark so there so you don't even notice it's up in the window...
  13. No intermittent wipers? Really?

    This. I would MUCH rather have intermittent than the auto rain sensing auto wipers. Sometimes they will start up at a good rate, but invariable I'll notice the rain has let up and they are still wiping away with no care that that the window is now dry. How hard would it have been to put...
  14. Anyone else's rear shelf rattle?

    Basic rattle in conjunction with road travel and/or engine RPM or is the rattle from the result of bass input from the stereo? If bass input, then yes...lots of us have it. If from road travel, then not here with mine. I get a small rattle up front in the dash sometimes and that's it.
  15. Climate control fan whines when starting up in cooler weather

    I dropped it off Monday morning for them to take a look. Stopped by Tuesday evening to hopefully pick it back up but nobody had been able to hear the sound. I grabbed one of their techs and took him for a spin. Got the sound to become pretty prevalent - enough that he could distinctly hear it...
  16. Climate control fan whines when starting up in cooler weather

    I dropped it off this morning for them to take a look. They have it for 2 days so hopefully it's enough time to narrow it down. I'll post back with their results.
  17. Climate control fan whines when starting up in cooler weather

    I popped open the door to the cabin filter, poked and prodded the seal a little bit, and then closed it carefully. The seal doesn't look pinched in any way and seems to make contact all the way around the rectangular door. Any other ideas? I'm planning on having Honda look at it when in for...
  18. How often do you fill your tank?

    130+ round trip per day 5 days a week, we usually fill up 3 times a week with the last top off just so we start out on Monday with a full tank, '16 Touring sedan, and Wawa is our fill up place of choice due to price and location convenience. We are averaging 39mpg or so according to the...
  19. Ghost beeping

    We get it quite often too. I know it's supposed to let you know that you left your keys in the car, but it would be nice if the seat sensor would register that you're sitting in it with the keys so you don't have to hear the beep beep beep beep beep each time before you hit the start button...
  20. What did you drive before your Civic?

    Got my first car in 1987 and have since been sort of all over the map in regards to style and form. These are in order of purchasing: 1981 AMC Eagle 1988 Mustang LX convertible 1987 Chrysler LeBaron GT 1985 Nissan 300Z 1995 Nissan Hardbody SE truck 1991 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme coupe 1999...
