I understand that the Civic has some knock control that adjusts based on type of optional gas you put in the car (at least for stock?) I also am using phearable tune which I understand requires premium fuel 93+ or 91 at absolute minimum.
My wife accidentally put in regular gas and also I was...
Hi,
I have been using Ktuner 1.2 Starter 21 on Stock Civic CVT. Mostly for commuting to work or a nice long drive down to the shore, but appreciate the extra responsiveness and pep the tune provides.
Do you recommend the Phearable 1.5 Tune for a stock civic CVt? worth the cost?
Do you change...
gtman, civics4ever, thanks for the replies.
Do you know if every time you flash the car with ktuner, if that resets the 'change oil % indicator' back to 100%?
I have about ~12k miles on my car and it is showing 90%, but honestly I don't remember what it was before I flashed it a few months ago...
I have been driving with ktuner starter 21 dual tune usually on conservative/moderate settings with early turbo spool. Colder winter temperature have come here in New Jersey (20F/-6.6C to 40F/4.4C). Had a few questions come to mind now.

On my next oil change...

Thanks SilverArrow and gtman.
I’m thinking I’ll run stage 1 over the winter (in other threads, it seems owners keep it easy over the winter, especially warning about making sure the car is warmed up).
Then maybe stage 2 until I learn more about tuning and get used to ktune. And then starter...
Hi,
I am also looking to tune for the first time and been reading a lot of threads. some questions:
If i use the starter 21 tune but don’t adjust any settings, is that the same as stage 2?
I read going full throttle from 0 is not good for long term durability and i’m not looking to do that at...
