  1. How to make ACC a regular, dumb CC???

    I think you have to disable the ACC while the cruise is actually in operation. Press and hold the distance button while the cruise is in use out on the highway. Thats how it works in my Acura.
  2. Cross shopping the TLX?

    The ZF9 in the new one I think finally has the bugs worked out. I had a 15 TLX with the 9ZF and this one feels like a different car. Shifting is 100% improved. No odd behaviour at all.
  3. Cross shopping the TLX?

    3.5 SH-AWD Elite A-Spec.
  4. Cross shopping the TLX?

    Took delivery last night.
  5. Cross shopping the TLX?

    Waiting on my 2018 3.5 A-Spec Elite.
  6. US vs. Canada quality

    Is the plant in East Liberty, Ohio a union? Some good info here... http://www.autofocus.ca/news-events/features/hondas-canadian-civic-plant-sets-the-world-standard The plant in Aliston sets the standards. Whether the other plants follow, who knows.
  7. 2018 Acura TLX undisguised

    As a former '15 TLX owner and now a current '17 MDX owner, I think it looks great.
  8. "Vent To Atmosphere" Type Blow Offs

    I used a Forge DV on to of my previous turbo vehicles and it fit and functioned just as the OEM one did. It just held boost better then the rubber diaphragm OEM one, that did leak and/or was known to fail.
  9. Where do Canadians buy their upgrades?

    Uniq Performance. They sell LOTS of Genesis Coupe parts, but can get really anything. If its not on their webpage, they can usually still get it. https://uniqperformance.ca/
  10. engine isnt making factory boost level

    Things like operating temps and low fuel can also effect the boost. Ive had a few turbo cars in the past that wouldnt hit full boost if the car was low on fuel and/or not up to operating temps.
  11. Next auto-show or info release date?

    How? The MSRP is $40K here in Canada. Tax, freight, pdi, fees, thats close to $50K OTD. $37K OTD seems like an awfully good deal.
  12. You gotta Pay to Play. Why so serious about Type of Gas?

    Canadian Tire premium is also eth free. Chevron and Ultramar if you can find them. Mostly out west I believe. http://www.pure-gas.org/index.jsp?stateprov=ON
  13. Really...??? Your thoughts???

    Yawn! Golf R is a $40K+ here in Canada. That buys a shit ton of Mustang GT which is an absolute bargain per dollar if youre talking about performance. The RSX was a turd compared the the 07+ Civic Si.
  14. Does anyone let their car warm up?

    Can anyone answer this?
  15. 2016 Civic Touring Will Not Start Or Able To Disengage Parking Breaks

    Was the seatbelt on? Some cars wont start or disengage the pbrake unless the driver is belted in and the brake pedal is being depressed.
  16. You gotta Pay to Play. Why so serious about Type of Gas?

    Luckily, here in Canada, most of our premium gas is also ethanol free, so you might not see a performance gain, but you wont have to worry about your motor getting all bunged up from the corn either :)
  17. Perspective on the Civic Si 1.5T engine choice

    Im not going to pass any judgement until the final specs are released. It might be a small 1.5, but it could have forged internals, a big fat intercooler, high flow injectors and a big twin scroll turbo. Even if it only makes 220hp compared to cars like the GTI and ST, the Civic will probably...
  18. Does anyone let their car warm up?

    Kind of related... Ive owned Turbo cars in the past that would limit boost until the motor reached operating temps and/or it was low on fuel. I wonder if the Civic does this also.
  19. Rear bumper on hatch has a body panel different on each side

    Yeah, the panel on the drivers side probably pops off and the tow hook would go there.
  20. I AM A BROKE STUDENT WHO NEEDS SERIOUS HELP!

    I got into a minor accident in my '16 RDX recently. A girl pulled out into the street and hit me. New fender, bumper, headlight, paint, labour, etc was $6100. The bumper painted and installed was around $800, so Im sure a newer model Civic would be a similar price.
