    At low speed (starting from 30km and going lower) during deaccleration/braking, car sounds very growling or hoarse in noise, and then it feels like something abruptly shuts off (likely engine for fuel eco.). So particularly, between 30kmph to 10kmph range, the sound from engine/transmission is...

  5. Please explain this AC behvior?

    But my AC is ON, and why one middle vent blows cold air and the other blows hot air. Even in manual mode is it trying to do "climate control"
  6. Please explain this AC behvior?

    I have 2016 Civic LX, that has single auto climate control system. Lately, I am confused with the AC behavior for the following scenario: Outside temp is 16C (63F), inside of the car feels bit muggy and little bit warm, so just for mild cool air I put climate control on mode: MANUAL temp: 23C...

    I bought 2016 honda civic 10 days ago and have put on ~250KMs. I noticed that AFTER car is stopped at the stop sign, there is that whizzing/whirring sound (after the car wheel stop rolling) coming as if a fan or engine or something is shutting down (deaccelrating fan speed sound). This is...
  13. Whats the worst fact a dealership has told you?

    I bought 2016 civic 10 days ago after much deliberation and due dilligence over the engine recall issue (piston clip ring missing) and ensuring the one I am buying is not falling into the recall list.

  16. 2016 Civic engine recall - piston pin snap ring issue affecting some VINs

    If honda canada customer service tells me on the phone that certain VIN I am looking (couple of them built in feb. 2016 and one in Jan 2016) are not in recall list. Should I trust that or do you guys think they are still in the process of collecting more VINs. It's just that I would want to...

    No, actually canadian recall site seems to be updated as I noted down few VINs from local dealer lot and entered that in the honda canada recall site and all of them came out with recall notice. However the dealer gave me two VINs from the lot that he said are not part of the recalls, the...
  20. 2016 Civic engine recall - piston pin snap ring issue affecting some VINs

    one more question: If they scoped out the vehicle and didn't find the issue (i.e piston ring is in place properly), does the recall information/warning go away from honda's website for that vehicle (e.g dealer or honda going ahead and closing the issue)? or will there always be a history...
