1 thing you hate about your 10th gen civic?

Keep in mind, you can't push start a MT if the parking brake is dependant on battery power... come to think of it, with all the electronics in the car, I tend to doubt that push starting is any kind of an option anymore. I guess it always was a hack, anyway.

Push Start? This aint the Ford forums.

Have a PMM, and being a new car. I find the paint can easily chip~ so I would say... the quality of the paint is not as good as it use to be. Feels like a low cost and quality paint job...

I wish it would tell me the tire pressure of each tire... an actual TPMS not the speed sensor thing... that maybe too boujee for some but its small and I miss my old car having it.

Yea, I agree why this mock TPMS with such lies and deception!
The Toyota has it standard and Lexus, so what the heck Honda?

Price for quality (high vs low)

Climate control button when you first start the car on a hot day. pressing it does nothing until the disclaimer disappears. physical buttons/knobs are nice.

There is a thread of people swapping the part under the touchscreen where the temp knobs are with an accord set that has physical AC button and a knob for fan speed. You do lose the dual temp zones if you have it.

Just be sure to pump it to at least 32 psi!

I used to drive a Gen One Accord... push start was a thing, frequently.

Personally, I prefer Honda's system. I can swap my winter wheels w/o having to worry about reprogramming TPMS (or staring at a TPMS light all winter), which in many vehicles requires a special programmer, or a trip to the wheel shop.

With direct TPMS, when the batteries expire in the valves you need at least to jack up the car, deflate the tires and push them partially off the rim to dig out the sensors. The batteries may be soldered in and need some work to unsolder and solder again. The tire service may prefer to sell you new sensors of course. The cost and bother of all of this is obnoxious. If you don't replace the batteries or sensors, you can't get rid of lights and warnings on the dashboard.
For someone leasing the car it may not be a problem, because the batteries could maybe? last for 3 years. But I prefer the Honda indirect system. If I wanted direct pressure I would rather install external valve sensors, although these are not a perfect solution either.

I gotta go with AC for the win; I have never had this much trouble from one, of course it could just be the dealer milking the warranty for all its worth. I just got the call yesterday that the (7th I think) replacement part is in (various lines/condenser/now AC control unit), so hopefully starting this week I can have a couple more months of AC.

If not for the AC I would only have three gripes about the car...
... The rain sensor seems to go haywire occasionally
... The heated seats are either "the fires of hell" or "not sure if they're on"
... It didn't come in the trim I wanted with a manual (CVT isn't that bad though)

No mute button for sound system!

That's why I love the steering wheel control on mine. Lightly swipe your finger down from Vol + to Vol - and it mutes, takes less than a half a second. I've heard that they removed the touch sensitive volume slider on newer models though.. which sucks because I was probably the only person that didn't care about a volume knob, that slider is amazing.
