  1. A/C Contaminated But Didn't Touch It?

    So I got my 2017 Honda Civic Hatchback Sport A/C compressor replaced 8/2022 of last year. Car is in decent condition @ 80,000 miles. Fast forward to now, and the AC started blowing hot air. Being in 110 degree weather in LV, having no AC is quite hazardous, so I decided to get it checked at the...
  2. 30k and still going strong + 30k service experience ?

    It has been 30k beautiful miles with my '19 Sport Touring SGP. I had a lot of great trips, moments and experiences over the past 30k/2 years of ownership.

    Check this out. I just bought my 2017 Type R a few weeks ago. And on the 5hr drive to my parents to let them see the car it started misting. Found out real quick that intermittent does not work AT ALL, not even the initial swipe to let you know its been switched to that mode, "Medium" was...

    Hi, new to this thread and even to civicx; posting from Ontario. =) Wanted to get thoughts from enthusiasts and those in the 'know':- As we are all aware, production of the Type R this year is low due to plant shutdowns from COVID-19, with many/all stock sold in Canada by now. I'm in the...

  6. Missing Bolts from Skid Plate?

    I went to get my oil changed today and the tech in the pit hollered out saying he wasn't going to do the oil change because all of the bolts from my skid plate were missing. He went on to say he didn't want to be held responsible. They then said the last person to do the oil change probably...
  7. SoCal 2020 SI Pricing

    Hi All, Anyone have recommendations on a dealer in SoCal (North OC Specifically) for a 2020 SI? I've had a few dealers try to bait and switch in person after beating my costco baseline quote of $24.4 via email. I'm having a pretty rough time with the bigger dealers, so far Honda World Downey...

  11. 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...
  12. Dealership scratched my car and attempted to cover it up.

    I went to a dealership to get door sills installed. Their name I am leaving out for legal reasons. I was advised the service would take one and a half hours and decided to wait at the dealership. I turned my GoPro dashcam on and went to the waiting area. Two and a half hours later, I walk over...

  14. Rotten Egg Smell

  15. Strange situation - Am I crazy?

    Okay, here's a bit of a book. I have a tl;dr at the end but I highly recommend reading the whole thing for context. In January of '18 I purchased a '17 Civic Si Sedan. Loved the car, was fantastic. I installed very few aftermarket modifications to the car, kept it mostly stock. Three of the...
  16. When should 2019 Civic Sedans hit US dealerships?

    Anyone have insight on when 2019 models of the Civic Sedan should start hitting dealerships -- perhaps based upon inside knowledge, or the history of recent model year updates? Also, based upon prior years' experience, do the unsold prior year new models (2018, in this case) get kept on the...
  17. Unpair KTuner when taking to dealer?

    Hey guys! I'm going to be taking my 2018 Sport Hatch to the dealer later today and I have KTuner hooked up. Theyre going to be scanning the car as all the warnings come up (emissions system problem, all brake control systems problems, Electronic power steering problem, etc.) I'm thinking its the...
  18. Does a dealer really not do a honest job? (Like changing the oil filter?)

    I need proof for this question and really do not want "opinions" from people who do not like the dealer because they are so expensive. Anyone have experiences where the dealer uses cheap oil (hard to determine) or use cheap filters or dont change the filter at all? Any Honda tech's here? I...
