1 thing you hate about your 10th gen civic?

[mforcino]

And then we have people saying their car is solid as a rock and rattle free. Honda must have extremely poor quality control these days. I owned only Hondas for 20 years and then tried Hyundai and Kia before coming back to Honda for this Civic X. I had no problems with the Hyundai or Kia and might be going back to the Korean cars after this.

Had my eye on the K5 turbo...

Hyundai and Kia have been killing it. The K5 GT has 290 turbocharged horsepower and the interior is really nice. Meanwhile the Hyundai Elantra N will be coming out soon. All the performance and unique settings of the veloster n but with 4 doors and more room for passengers. Both have a DCT which I hear is really good and probably better than our CVT’s.

Quality control & deck lid gaps were discussed elsewhere. I wonder if squeaks & rattles are more prevalent depending where the car was assembled.

I still miss a glove box light.

Did they add a glove box light later on in the 10th gen or something? Unless I'm crazy, I'm 99% sure mine has one and it's a lower model than your EX-L.

For the hatch it was added for the 2019.

electric parking brake (no skid boi stuff), the CVT is straight cheeks, how small the gas tank is (its a blessing and a curse), and the stock audio system is so garbage imo (i have a base model system to be fair)

 

[CopperPeacock]

I have a few:

The audio system is butts on it's best day.

Car falls on it's face over 5k out of the box. (found out this morning)

No VTECH so I can't make VTECH memes with my friends.

Car makes me wanna buy too many parts and I only have SO MUCH money.

Fix all your performance woes with a KTuner V1.2 ...

Yes, it $449 but you get a few included tunes and lots of easy adjustments. Buy from Phearable or TSP and get one of their great tunes thrown in for free. You won't regret it.

That's what I read. I saw a thread somewhere about adding a Honda switch & light. I was hoping to find a ready made spot to add a factory switch but no such luck. I'll have to find the thread again, but it makes me wonder if the person modified the inside of the glove box.

It's on the list. I'm gonna put some more miles on it before I pick one up.

I'm leaning toward the KTuner cause that what everyone says work best but the screen thingy is shaped goofy and I don't wanna use it. I already have enough screens to look at.

That’s version 2, no screen with the 1.2, can use TunerView with your phone if you want gauges, etc. Or with hondahack you can use the TunerView light with the headunit.

Do they both have the same functionality?

I can have a copilot ride shotgun holding my surface while tuning or logging if need be, Once it's set and done I don't want another thing floating around. I have a lot of Subiecult friends that have Cobb tuners and they all just have them hanging out on the dash which looks jank IMO.

Those giant wheels and rubber band tires. Had to immediately replace tires with thicker side wall (35-profile). Currently shopping for a smaller set of wheels.

I might be interested in selling some RPF 1s 18x9.5 38 offset, I have a hatchback sport and the wheel sticks out too much for my liking so I need to go down a size in width for my car

Same functionality other than no built in screen. It has a lot of built in storage for logging so don’t even need a screen for that either, it can be setup to start logging when certain parameters are met, or if using TunerView you can easily toggle it on and off. Don’t even need the dongle connected once tuned either.

Can you tune it and just forget about it or smart to do the Honda hack and keep an eye on your knock control?

Not really hating, but I sometimes miss a heated steering wheel.
