  1. Infotainment software update?

    Just for troubleshooting purposes, turn off wifi on your phone before you reach home. It sounds like your phone is switching from cellular to your home wifi, although that doesn't explain the behavior you mention.
  2. Flood Damage Rebuild

    👆 What he said. Congrats on the progress!
  3. Thoughts on this weird issue?

    If it only happens nose up, I'd check for loose wiring or something else that can shift and cause a short like tacthecat said. Possibly something aftermarket that may not be fused correctly (fuse should blow in this situation).
  4. Flood Damage Rebuild

    Congrats! Whiny noise could be power steering pump or a bearing. You can get a mechanic's stethoscope for less than $20 to help track it down if you don't already have one.
  5. Need new rotors for the type R

    BTW, this is not the Type R, it's the NA 2.0L hatch

    Stock 2 piece rotors, 20-21 - $646/set: https://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/oem-parts/honda-disk-front-brake-45251tgha01 Stock 1 piece rotors (see Brembo 09C38811), 17-19 - $210/set: https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/honda,2018,civic,2.0l+l4+turbocharged,3441249,brake+&+wheel+hub,rotor,1896...
  7. Flood Damage Rebuild

    I've had good luck with this stuff to permanently clean electrical connections. It might help with some of those codes. Also, you might want to use it proactively on everything you can access, even if it isn't causing issues now...
  8. Flood Damage Rebuild

    Interesting thread! Made me cringe when I saw it was a fellow Crystal Black Pearl. What year is it? I hope you can get it back on the road and will definitely be following your progress. Take lots of pictures as you disassemble if you haven't already. Even with the manuals, it's still going to...
  9. Will Honda ever come out with wireless CarPlay for our cars?

    I have the AAWireless adapter and it works pretty well. Once in a while an incoming call gets routed to my smartwatch instead of the car, but it's easy to reroute.
  10. Honda civic new headlight

    I've had my bumper cover off at least 6 times and don't recall any bolts being a pain, only the fog light connectors. I now have two perfect-height boxes to set the bumper cover on while disconnecting/reconnecting the fogs. As for those headlights, I'll pass.
  11. Scale Civic type R model collecting

    Please post here if that ever happens. I've been watching since 2017, and only the limited run resins have happened
  12. Pads Wear Rotors Through Normal Use? Am I crazy?

    Just fyi, Rock auto has the BREMBO 09C33811 Front Rotor (OEM) for $80 which is still about $30 cheaper than Majestic's price if you don't want to go with an aftermarket front rotor. As others have said it is unlikely that they need to be replaced, but just in case.
  13. New - Open Mesh Fog Light Covers for FK8 Type R

    I'm sure the drag coefficient increases, but she still pulls just fine to triple digits and beyond (at which speeds drag actually matters). Honda knew exactly what they were doing by covering these up, but I like the look way better.
  14. New - Open Mesh Fog Light Covers for FK8 Type R

    The bumper cover had to come off, but it's not that bad. Four Phillips screws on either side, a bunch of plastic trim pop-rivets, and four trim snaps along the top of the headlights. Definitely need a helper or bins/boxes to hold the cover while disconnecting/reconnecting the fog light wires...
  15. New - Open Mesh Fog Light Covers for FK8 Type R

    Agreed. Great minds...although I only needed to black out the aluminum bumper beam since mine is CBP. BTW, fitment is perfect. +1 for rears!!!
  16. Anyone install the OEM garage opener on our cars?

    Wanted to point out that swapping out the mirror also gets you auto-dimming at night. Not huge, but it is a convenience. Power has to be tapped from other circuits as noted above. If you go this route, try to get a donor Gentex model 453 mirror from an ebay seller that labels the leads. Due to...
  17. How rare or common to spot a Type R in your general area?

    I used to see a couple per month back when I was commuting into NW Atlanta, but now that I'm remote and sticking to my local city, I rarely see another CTR.
  18. full review, writeup, and installation steps: ctr subs, amp, center channel, and door speakers

    Looks great! I mounted mine behind the grill for protection, but honestly like the looks of yours better. Definitely agree about the improved bass response.
  19. First Brand New Car

    Enjoy! I remember when I picked mine up I made up excuses to drive it anywhere I could to get those break-in miles knocked out and to learn everything I could about the car. Hard to believe that was almost 4 years ago!
  20. full review, writeup, and installation steps: ctr subs, amp, center channel, and door speakers

    I skimmed this thread, but saw no mention of this product from Metra: https://axxessinterfaces.com/product/AXDSPX-HN3. This is a 10 channel DSP that bypasses the "premium" system amp and provides low level inputs for external amps and direct wires to all the speakers. It looks as though they...
