  1. Steering is stiff and notchy feeling

    I've told my dealer point blank they will never touch my car again. I've paid an independent shop to fix what they screwed up because I didn't have the tools or equipment. If they can't recreate it, they will just send you off. In the past, dealers only got so much money from the manufacture to...
  2. Steering is stiff and notchy feeling

    Mine has been doing the same thing except mine is usually at highway speeds. Just started doing it at 45ish. Comes and goes and drives me batty. 2016 LX. No Sensing
  3. CVT Transmisson

    Sorry! Don't know how I missed this. All regular maintenance. Flushing brake fluid, oil change, filter changes etc.
  4. CVT Transmisson

    73K miles now and still no transmission issues.
  5. Engine Shield/Cover Detached?

    Ordered one one of these. Supposed to be here Tuesday. Will post back on how it fits. https://www.ebay.com/itm/For-Honda-Civic-16-17-18-Auto-Under-Engine-Splash-Shield-Guard-Mudguard-Black/192942772899
  6. Engine Shield/Cover Detached?

    Won't do business with Honda Cars of Rockwall, Tx ever again because of this same crap. Honda makes a great product but by-in-large their dealer service departments just suck. If you are looking for a good dealer service department in D/FW go to Rusty Wallis in Garland. They priced the engine...
  7. Odd Behaviour with my Civic

    Took it to my mechanic today. Found out I couldn't open the door with the key because the rod that connects to the lock had fallen out. Crazy thing. Maybe I wont trade it in for a Crosstrek just yet.
  8. Odd Behaviour with my Civic

    Mine is the last post (for now) and this AM was time #2. Hopefully your dealer is better than where I bought mine. Won't take it back there ever again.
  9. Odd Behaviour with my Civic

    The first time it happened on my LX I hadn't opened the trunk either.
  10. Odd Behaviour with my Civic

    Happened to me for the 2nd time this AM. Had just opened the trunk and dropped my lunch and laptop in. The key in the door didn't and still doesn't do anything. Honda roadside was no help since I'm out of warranty. After about 45 minutes it decided to respond to the key fob. Going to dealer this...
  11. Changing steering

    My 2016 LX does the same thing but not all the time. I don't have the lane departure feature. From time to time at speeds of 65+ the steering becomes resistant to input and requires quite a bit of force. It's been happening since the car had around 50000 miles on it. I bought it brand new and...
  12. Why don't they just make alloy wheels standard?

    I wanted a CRX but since I had a new born son, etc practicality dictated a DX hatchback. Stiil a great little car which was fun to drive.
  13. Why don't they just make alloy wheels standard?

    I was looking for OEM wheels but couldn't find any at what I considered a reasonable price. These are Vision Cross and were $80 each at Discount Tire. Not high-end but I'm just running this car up and down the highway putting 400+ miles a week on it. They're still an adder in Kelly Blu Book.
  14. CVT Transmisson

    Just shy of 56K on my 2016 LX. That's mostly highway. Just changed the fluid but have had no issue so far and I am not easy on my cars. I do stay on top of maintenance so maybe thats why I get away with driving them hard at times.
  15. Why don't they just make alloy wheels standard?

    Old & new. I considered 17 or 18's but didn't want to affect the ride comfort at all. About to resume the long commute thing and I'm old so there you go. It's an LX but it corners better than anything I've ever owned including my '85 Firebird which BTW, was traded in on a 91 Civic.
  16. Brake Service / Brake Fluide Change

    The primary reason you flush brake fluid out of the wheel cylinders is that brake fluid gets really hot when the brakes are applied. . It practically boils which, is why hi-performance applications use DOT4 fluid which has a significantly higher boiling point than DOT3. If you aren't racing, you...
  17. Computer Hard Reset

    Update. Couldn't figure out which steering wheel buttons to use to access vehicle settings to reset the TPMS sensor. Just did a calibration like the owners manual instructed and drove it about 30 miles, Pulled in the garage, all the lights still on and shut it off. Restarted and all the lights...
  18. Computer Hard Reset

    Thanks guys! Looking at it. I wasn't finding anything.
  19. Computer Hard Reset

    Thanks for the reply! I thought about checking tire pressure and look for nails as I was going to sleep last night as my wife is very adept at finding them. I know there is a way to get into the computer via the radio but I'll have to look it up. Watched a service adviser do it once but don't...
