Should have followed up on this long ago, but somehow, strangely, the Auto climate seems to have somewhat sorted itself out for me. All summer long I was able to set my car to a nice 68-70, and the cabin temperature seemed to hit that mark more or less accurately. Waiting for it to get cold out...
Beyond that, what else would it need to do in order to qualify as a genuine "sport" mode?
Also, just from my experience, I've never had to shift down to S in order to pass anyone with my 1.5T. Plenty of power to accelerate and create distance at any speed in D mode, and I can't really imagine...
He is correct. However, if you really want the updates preemptively, you can just lie a little and say you've experienced the issue. Some service depts will attempt to reproduce the issue, but others will just take your word for it and do the update. From their perspective of billing Honda, they...
Happy to report I received the 16-028 TCM update (highway surging) update from my dealership despite not having experienced the problem myself. Driving in NYC, I don't often cover more than 10 miles at a time at highway speeds, however I'm planning on a 2500 mile road trip in August and wanted...
Happy to report I received the 16-022 audio update today at my dealership. Driving back home, not even a hint of a bluetooth stutter. Most of my customized settings remained, however I did have to reorganize my home screen layout, as that reset back to default.
I have an appointment for the update on Wednesday. Am I going to get there and be told the update is on hold now? Should I cancel and wait a couple weeks?
The Civic is obviously a much lighter car, so it requires less power to get it moving. The CVT also does an outstanding job of maximizing torque at lower RPM ranges.
That setting is for the external thermometer that displays in the instrument panel, if you feel that it's reading the outside temperature incorrectly. Would be great to have a similar setting for the cabin sensors.
Hey gang, just wanted to share my good fortune with some civic people who might appreciate this sort of thing. I tried to explain it to my wife, and she wasn't really listening.
So I was terminating a leased 2013 Civic, and starting a new lease on a 2016 Civic. I was terminating the 2013 lease...
The CVT really does do a super job of delivering solid, consistent power at lower RPMs. Plus, this car is quite light for that amount of power, at around 2900 lbs. Both of which make this car feel great.
Peak HP numbers in marketing material are very misleading. It's romantic sounding and...
Agreed, your results match mine. Need to set climate 6-7 degrees lower than desired temperature. My 2013 Civic was pretty much accurate, for comparison.
There's some settings that allow you to customize the behavior of the door locks. You can definitely configure it so that pressing the unlock button on the key unlocks all doors, rather than just the driver door. You can also set it so that when you grab either of the front door handles for...
Accident forgiveness basically just means that if you ever do get into an accident for which you are at fault, and you file a claim, they will not jack up your rates as a result. It's a one time get out of jail free card. Once used up, it's regained by going accident free for another 5 years...
