The type R is considered a bit rice since some cosmetic aspects go above and beyond practicality but if you like the look than who gives a damn. Guaranteed he had a slow car
That would definitely be one of my top choices if i were in the market to get a fast car.
Unfortunately, since i rely on one daily driver to do it all ( Canadian winters, hauling stuff around, 500km drives just about every weekend along with some washboard roads) i've decided to trade in for a...
Have some parts that I no longer need due to trading in the vehicle. All parts are in great condition. PM me an offer. Buyer pays shipping or can do local pickup in the GTA.

Trading in my civic for a truck. I've reverted back to factory and successfully unlocked the unit. Haven't been on factory tune for a while but man does it suck compared to even a mild tune ! Comes with the box, ktuner v1.2, usb cable. See pics attached.
PM me for more info.
I had a hunch that the DCT had a catch 22. What do you think of the Veloster N ? With the new added saftey features the 2020 Si has increased in price by around 2k here in Canada. For an extra 4k you can get a veloster N which only comes in manual and has a significant power bump along with good...
as well having more control such as being able to actually downshift..the paddles on the civic are pointless since the CVT is meant to operate at a precise ratio and what's most "ideal" so why would anyone want to choose something different to make the transmission perform worse. In other words...
Can't comment on the speed vs a regular automatic but i've heard a lot of good things about the DCT used by Hyundia/Kia. I've heard it's smooth and responsive. From my expierience Honda CVT at low speeds stumbles quite often when RPMs increase/decrease from idle. The biggest selling point for me...
Just read what Kia will be adding to their 2020 platform:

Much like the 2019 Hyundai Elantra GT N Line,
It will have their 1.6 turbo paired with a DCT, making 201 hp and 195 lb-ft of...
i was reading the other day that Honda's profits are down due to recalls including takata air bags and other factors.

But totally agree that they should be giving cusotmers the benefit of the doubt. Maybe Si...
Also if you put your feet in the tech's position he could have be very well hiding something in the fear of losing his job. You said the same tech checked your car after the engine blew who did the oil. he would have connected his scanner tool after the engine blew and say for instance he saw...
i have solid faith in honda engineering and manufacturing practices but 0 when it comes to dealership service departments. That's why i wouldn't go near that department with a 10ft pole unless I had to do some warranty work which all hell would break loose if they tried to deny me coverage for...
This is why i do oil changes myself. because in the end of the day there's only one person to blame. but seriously you should of jacked the car up and checked if there was oil leaking before turning the car in to the stealership
Everyone associates CVT failure with the belt failing but there are a lot more moving parts to a CVT transmission that can break than the obvious "belt".
There was a post a few months back where a member "fried the valve body"
