I mean, to be fair, the Civic has been around for 45 years and this is the second year of the redesign. I had a '94 Accord with 75,000 on the odometer when I bought it and never once had any issues with it, besides this annoying buzzing sound from the muffler heat shield. The components that...

UPDATE: Got it back yesterday from the dealer. DrwMDvs was correct - a hose connected to the turbo was almost completely disconnected, and the hose clamp wasn't tightened down at all, according to the mechanic... All of the warning lights were in some way related to this "leak", as I also...

Yep. Nothing looked out of the ordinary to me. No leaks.

No, not really. Since day one it has always sorta felt like it had a sluggish power band though. I suppose it's possible that it's been like this since I got it. I try to baby my cars for at least the first few thousand miles, but I finally decided to open it up and this was the result.

Last Thursday night I was driving to get some dinner with my wife, and 6 warning lights came on, all at the same time. This happened after downshifting into 5th gear and giving it a lot of gas. I also noticed a hissing sound coming from the engine compartment, and I have heard this before but...

So, I can only comment on my 2017 EX-T here... but if you're going from a Mustang GT to the Civic, you're more than likely going to lose the fun factor that you had with the Mustang. It's not to say that the Civic is a bad car per se, but I traded my 2014 Mustang V6 6-spd with performance...

My wife was nice enough to make this for me:

You only need to depress the clutch to start it. Brake is required for A/T vehicles.

Good to know. I prefer to have all of my music stored on my device for the most part. I'm on a limited data plan and can't always stream music, but when I can I'm using TuneIn Premium as most of their premium streams are 320kbps. YUUUUGE improvement over Sirius sound quality, and it works well...

You are absolutely right that the quality of the cable matters when it comes to Android Auto! I ended up getting a really nice braided cable from Anker and I'm no longer having dropped connections. As far as audio quality goes, I don't really have a good way to test my FLAC files on AA because I...

How about now?

My wonderful wife made me this cool "Save the Stick" vinyl decal for me(she's an artist/designer), and I installed it as soon as I got home from work! If anyone is interested in getting one, just drop me a PM and I will link you.

I think that entire thread talking about it vanished as well, right?

That rear spoiler looks awful.. It covers up a considerable portion of the taillight and looks flimsy. Like it could easily snap off if someone happened to put a little pressure on one of the corners.

I think it's fair to say that Burgundy Night Pearl and Black both suffer from the same issue - they look great when clean but are very hard to maintain. Despite this, I still think I'd get my car in BNP, because it seems to be an extremely rare color, and I feel like the color gives my car more...

Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Purifier-Generator-Freshener-Removes-Cigarette/dp/B01MRKMW3N/

I wouldn't expect that smell to linger... but you could always get one of those little ozone/ionic air purifiers that plugs into the cigarette lighter. I used to have one in my Taurus and it was good for masking the smell of cigarettes that the previous owner blessed it with.

Wow.. thanks for posting this! Love me some instrumental stuff!

Eh, I mean technically my first car was a Honda, so I sort of knew what to expect from a mechanical standpoint. As far as the most bang for your buck goes, Honda is definitely winning these days with all the tech they are offering even on the base models. I do miss the power I had with the...
