  1. A/C broken for third year and time in a row. What are my options?

    2016 Civic history: 2018: cold air not blowing on driver's side. Dealer diagnosed that suction hose clasped and repaired. Added refrigerant. Under warranty. 2019: same symptoms as last year. damaged compressor. Charged me 1400 to replace. I called corporate and they provided 50% coverage, so...
  2. Air Conditioning Failure on driver's side

    after about 29 months, I noticed my driver's side A/C not working. It was just blowing air on a hot day. Took it into the dealer who said some hose needed to be replaced. On initial inspection, they accused me of contaminating the refrigerant according to their diagnostic tool, which was later...
  3. Body shop in Los Angeles/Pasadena area?

    I got rear ended, so bumper's gone... any recommendations on a good body shop? Price is not a factor since the liable party's insurance is paying for it. I had one bad experience on my last civic, so i'm a bit wary.
  4. My Civic Touring tried to lock me out of my car

    So I popped open my trunk to grab something and closed it. I noticed that my front and rear blinker lights stayed on (not blinking, but on). It didn't go off after 5 minutes. I tried pressing every button on my key fob repeatedly. I also tried pressing the door handle and door lock button. No...
  5. Clock not updating on (Touring) LCD display?

    I noticed today that the clock doesn't update and stays stuck while driving this morning. Did anyone else ever notice the same?
  6. Tire chain recommendations?

    I'm in Los Angeles, so winter tires aren't so practical for me and prefer chains for the occasional visit to Mammoth. Does anyone have any specific recommendations on chain brands and sizing? Amazon doesn't seem to have any based on 2016 civic filter criteria.
  7. Are these good floor mats?

    http://www.weathertech.com/honda/2016/civic/all-vehicle-mats-avm/ I recall people waiting on weathertech floor mats to come about. Are these the ones people keep mentioning about?
  8. Your android auto / carplay experience thus far? (been good for me - so far)

    Well I've been playing with my civic for about a week (just under) straight through and I was a bit worried about how the experience would be given the feedback on the forum so far. So far the infotainment system has been pretty snappy. Not immediate, but the UI responds within a second or so...
  9. Android Auto question: How to turn off Google Maps once you've reached your destination?

    So I set my destination to my work and once I get there, I'm not completely there according to my google maps, but I'm parked and good where I am. I want to turn it off so there's no more activity for it. I couldn't figure out how to turn it off. Any idea?
  10. DIY Request: How to dampen rear subwoofer rattling

    I figure this would be useful for many of us if our dealers refuse to help
  11. Check if the sensing lens is loose in the front bumper

    During my own vehicle inspection of my touring, I noticed that the lens was not set firmly in place and just kind of dangling in its slot. It took the sales person a good 15-20 minutes to figure out how to snap it in. I had to keep telling him it was not perfectly flush with the frame until it...

  14. If I buy a civic from dealer A, can I get my car serviced for warranty-related defects @ dealer B/C?

    I found a decent deal on an EXL at a dealer that's 40 miles from me. I have like 3 other dealerships that are within 10 miles of me. Do you know if the dealers closer to me would have their service centers work with me for warranty-related issues (e.g. hood fitting problems, deck not responding...
  15. How much faith do you have that Honda will issue bug fixes/firmware updates on the display/tablet?

    It seems like no one can vouch for a bug-free experience. What is your gut feeling on Honda's ability to follow through on having good customer service?
  16. Rationale for choosing betwen EX-L (with Sensing) vs Touring?

    I'm struggling with justifying the $1800 difference between the EX-L with sensing vs the touring! 1) Led lights to me just seem like another more expensive replacement compared to regular halogen bulbs. 2) The rain sensing wipers seem unrefined (according to the other thread about...
  17. What are the inconsistent lens and grill things on the front bumper?

    I went to go check out the civicx again today and noticed these things on the bumper. It bothered me that they were not symmetrical in looks. On one side it looked like a lens and the other side was a grill. Perhaps the lens is like the front sensor? Any idea what this is and can we even this...
  18. Audio quality between Touring and non-Touring trims

    Has anyone had a chance to experience the differences between the audio quality between the two trims? I believe the touring's 450 watt and all others (sans the LX) are 180 watt setups. I don't feel like I have a need for sensing, so the only reason I'd move up to the Touring is for the audio...
  19. Leather vs Fabric interior

    Just curious to see for those of you who have seen both interiors for the civicX. What are the pros/cons of each? IMO, the fabric looks more refined and solid. It doesn't look cheap at all, which I was really surprised by coming from a much older civic.
