Just replying to my previous post to set the context. I can honestly report that I no longer have the noise after the above said deer incident and repairs. I've cold started 5 times and no noises. We'll see how it goes and hopefully doesn't come back. So if you want to fix the noise just crash...

I turned the AC on and it made a very slight version of the sound and only for a couple seconds, then it faded away. But before the accident and repairs, it was really loud like in the video and lasted for a longer time.

Maybe because AC was not on. I will try again tomorrow.

Yes...

My car was recently repaired after hitting a deer. They replaced various parts including the AC condenser and turbo. And guess what? No more crackling noise during startup!

In case you're interested, the final repair invoice was $7,797!!!! This included sending it to the Honda dealer to replace the turbo, wiring harness, AC condenser, etc..

I was seriously considering tuning my recently purchased Civic, but now I can't. My wife hit a deer recently and it's still in the shop. They have to replace the turbo and some other items so that leaves me with a dilemma. If I tune the car and it develops problems down the road I will have no...

Tuning a car is just like anything else in life. There are rules and limitations for everything or one pays the price of not following said rules. If you drink too much alchohol you get drunk and fall on your face. If you eat too many cheeseburgers you become obese. If you smoke tobacco you can...

Nobody is arguing and I wasn't referring to the Type-R.

Why does anyone think a Honda Civic is a performance car? There's where the problem starts. If you have the need for speed, save some cash and get a real go-fast ride.

Ouch!

I really loved the car for what it is. But the 370 model is a decade old :-) I had it tuned, aftermarket clutch and exhaust. Not real fast but fast enough. 318 HP at the wheels.

2015 370Z 6spd manual. Nice car but not practical and scary in wet weather.

:) :yes: :thumbsup:

Wow! Good to know what to expect. As a result of this I was looking at brush guards for my 2018 Ford Explorer :-)

Yep. It's at the collision shop now so I'll find out soon.

Thanks for all the feedback folks! My wife did say that she slammed on the brakes and actually slid a bit, so she managed to slow down some before making contact. The deer slid down the road in front of her and then got up and ran away. I would hate to see what the damage would be in a serious...

Yeah. I'm leaving it as it is and have it towed to the repair shop. Thanks!

There's more damage under the hood. I guess I'll just get the estimate and see where this goes.

Wife is fine. She'll live to to shop another day :-) Here are some of the errors.
