'16 Civic with 50k miles. Zero issues with the air conditioning. A handful of complaints online for literally the bestselling car in its class doesn't make an issue "common". If it was common then there'd be a recall, or at the very least it would be listed under "common problems with this...

Agreed. It was literally negative 10 degrees Fahrenheit here last week, and we got a foot of snow, AND my car sits in my driveway overnight. You better believe I remote started my car 15 minutes before getting into it.

Ohio resident here. I remote start my car every morning in the winter and let it run for 10-15 minutes before driving. Never had a problem, at least in my town. When the law first passed maybe 5 years ago or so, I remember there being an article in the local paper about a guy getting ticketed...

You forgot something: UNLESS IT'S A TOYOTA/LEXUS!!!!

My last car had to take 93 octane (Volvo S60 2.5T). I'm happy now that I get to save a ton at the pump using 87 in my EX-T. I try to stick to stations on the Top Tier list, but I don't go too far out of my way if there isn't one nearby. Admittedly I've filled up at Sheetz and GetGo a handful of...

Yep, he was definitely lacking any wrecks, until the truck hit him :lol:

48k miles on my '16 1.5T. Seems good so far. Maybe 2-3 times it's done something that felt a little strange (almost like a slip), but apparently it's just because CVTs behave differently from regular automatics and it takes some getting used to. Had one instance where my car rolled backwards...

I've had this on various cars in the past, but so far not my Civic. Seems to be a pretty common problem with older cars, so I'm surprised to hear of it happening with 2018's. Often times it's related to ventilation in the fuel system (the ventilation is to prevent pressure buildup in the tank...

Thanks for the advice. Does the electronic brake still apply when you have a CVT though? I guess i assumed that having it in park is a "gear" of sorts and the transmission itself holds the car in place, but I'm not really sure if that's the case with CVTs. I guess it would make sense that they'd...

That was just for the infotainment system. For your issue, I'd recommend disconnecting the negative battery terminal for 60 seconds.

Agreed. I had a problem with my infotainment system. It wouldn't come on and flashed blue and green whenever I tried using it. None of the reset instructions worked (such as turning the car off and back on, or holding down the brightness button + power button simultaneously for 30 seconds). I...

Sorry if this is a known issue or has been posted before, but today I witnessed my 2016 EX-T (CVT) roll about 8 inches backwards in my driveway. The car was off and in park, and is not parked on a steep incline (there's a very slight gradient, but that's it). The car had been parked for about 30...

Ugh. Well, from the looks of it, you're not looking at much structural damage. It looks like the door and rear quarter panel absorbed most of it. They'll have to cut out part of that door jamb and replace it with one they cut out of a junkyard one, which is the biggest part of this job, but not...

Hey all, when I bought my '16 EX-T used, it came with a spare tire, but no accessories. The entire kit is missing (tire irons, jack, etc.) Does anyone know where I can find the kit? Bonus if you can find one without the tire included, since I already have that. Thanks!

Thanks! All I really did was get a pack of 9 microfiber towels, a pack of 2 magic erasers, some rubbing compound, some polish/scratch remover, and some paste wax. Started with the magic erasers, and warning: they are a pretty powerful for clearcoat and will haze it up pretty bad, but they're...

So I bought my '16 EX-T about 2.5 weeks ago, and negotiated about $3,000 off the price of the car due to a huge scratch all the way along the passenger side (the pics sadly don't do a great job of showing the full length of the scratch, but you get the idea). Imagine the scratch from photo 1...

Ah ok, that actually surprises me and makes it even more impressive that it feels like it does, then. I just assumed everything was probably electronic by now and just wired directly into the computer.

UPDATE, and thanks all for the advice! I couldn't sleep at all last night worrying over this, and decided to call work and tell them I'd be late today because of this. I certainly didn't want to wait until Thursday to find out what was going on, or I'd be a complete wreck all week. I consulted...

I keep forgetting nothing is actually connected anymore, so the shifter isn't directly connected to the transmission like it used to be. Another example: I was describing the driving experience to my friend the other day, and I was like "the steering is so tight and responsive. It feels almost...

Ah Nissan. The company most people don't know anything about, and those who have the misfortune of actually knowing first-hand will avoid at all costs. Most people know them as "that other Japanese company, like Honda and Toyota!" and automatically put them in the same "this must be just as...
