  1. Warranty Extension A/C Compressor Shaft Seal Leak

    I received a Product Advisory letter in the mail, indicating a warranty extension for 2016-2021 Civic and 2017-2022 CR-V A/C compressor shaft seal leak. Just like the condensor issue, they are extending the shaft seal warranty to 10 years. Note, it is only the shaft seal and not the entire...
  2. Gargling sound when a/c is on

    Good morning everyone, Today I just wanted to post about this possible issue, I'm not sure if it is one yet, that's why I'm here for some advice. So I realized awhile ago whenever I would turn on my a/c or heat(cant remember) I could hear a gargling sound I think eventually it would go away but...
  3. A/C Issues - 2018 Civic EX

    2018 EX Hatch. Just hit 40k miles. Over the last 2 weeks I've really noticed a drop off in the performance of my A/C. I'm in Phoenix so of course you really notice it. I'm experiencing a lot of the symptoms described here already. Driver's side isn't getting cold. Or it takes 20 minutes of...
  4. Rear Defroster Help!

    So I was hanging out in my 2020 Si Sedan last night and my rear window got foggy. I turned on the cool air for the front to get rid of the fog, but the back stayed foggy! I tried playing around with the climate control but nothing. Do the back rear vents blow cold air?
  5. 2017 Civic Si A/C

    Hey everyone! I have a few comments/concerns about my ac. I’m trying to figure this out as to why my car does this. 1. When it’s really hot outside my car blows cold air but not enough of it. It generally gets a little warmer inside the car than usual. It’s fully charged too. 2. The other...
  6. Honeywell R-1234yf adapter for AC recharge

    I would suggest running a dye to find the leak plus a leak stopper first. If the leak is large, parts will need to be replaced...
  7. Weird Noises when A/C is Running

    I have a 2017 Civic SI and maybe in the past two months I've been hearing two weird noises coming from my car when the climate control is on. It doesn't matter if I am running heat or AC the noise happens only when you turn on the fan. The first noise is hard to describe. It sounds like a...
  8. Took my 2018 Hatchback Sport Touring to the dealership for the infamous whining A/C sound

    Occasionally I hear a whining noise when the A/C is on that many other owners have come across. I know a lot of people had bad luck taking it in to the dealership for this issue where they end up being told its just a normal sound or that they could not hear it when they checked so I was not...
  9. TSB for A/C "whining" noise?

    So this notorius whistling sound has appears now in my civic, and I saw a TSB here the other day with the exact symptoms. It occurs at ~2100 - ~2900 RPM. Can someone please reference it? And how do I prove to my dealer that I need this fixed?
  10. Please help me diagnose my A/C issue

    My A/C isn't blowing cold. Noticed this dark spot at the condensor. Does this indicate condensor failure?
  11. A/C stops blowing cool air after 10 minuets

    I couldn’t find a discussion with a problem similar to mine unfortunately. My issue is with my 10th gen Honda Civic LX. The a/c works perfectly fine for a good 5-10 minutes and then randomly switches to blowing room temperature air before it reaches the desired temperature. It only starts...
  12. A/C fan speed trick

    So I was playing around with A/C today and notice this. When you turn the control knob on the driver side with Auto Off, it actually adjust the fans' speed! Now I dont have to press climate and wait 5 sec before I can change the setting, on a touch screen, while driving.
  13. Turn off A/C & Radio for best launch?

    Back in the day I used to turn off my radio and a/c to get the best launch possible, but does that make sense anymore? In the new line of Civic Si's, should you turn off your radio and a/c to get the best speed possible? Or is that a thing of the past?
  14. Sad day, AC condenser broken by stone

    So back in April I noticed the ac didn't work and was pure hot air blowing. Took the car to honda and after paying for ac service they tell me no warranty issue you had a stone go through the condenser. So 500 bucks later for insurance and the car will be fixed Tuesday. Wish Honda didn't have...
  15. A/C smell

    Last night i had a bad surprise. I turned on the A/C again after I didn't use it for a week and the cabin was filled with a very strong smell. I have had this problem forever with previous cars and i really hated it, on the Malibu I used to change the cabin filter and spray a AC cleaner every...
  16. Driver's side center AC vent

    Has anyone else experienced the center AC dash vent on the driver's side moving? When it's really hot outside, my vent moves to the full-up position! I always have the vent pointing at me, but I've noticed about 5 times that when I got in the car on a really hot day that the vent was pointing...
  17. Air conditioning and other issues w/ 2015 civic ex l-nav

    I bought my car at the end of march and it now has 3,500 mi's on it. Its still new. There was a low but high pitch noise on the far right vent when my a/c was on. I found it annoying and wasn't able to enjoy the radio at a low volume setting because the noise was there. I took it to Fernandez...
  18. Fan speed controls not working

    Hey guys I just got my 2016 Honda Touring yesterday. The cars been great so far, except for some software issues: I am unable to control fanspeed, AC on/off, the mode buttons that appear on the touch screen on pressing the ClimateControl button. Pressing them does not change anything. And I...
  19. Climate Control

    Hey guys, I have a Touring edition and whenever I set the climate control to Auto, it defaults to pushing air through the foot vents. If I manually change the output to the top cents, the auto button is disengaged. Is there a way to have auto use the top cents and not default to the foot vents...
