  2. Preventing rain/water marks

    Yeah I know what you mean. With the cooler nights here I'm seeing some heavy condensation. And was getting a lot of water spotting. Very noticeable on a black car. I was using the Butter Wax as well. So about a week ago I decided to try another brand. So far I'm getting much less spotting...
  3. Anyone stick with stock tires last winter?

    How's the handling with Blizzaks ? Not too soft , I hope.
  4. Why do I see some Civics with thin horizontal stripes going from front to back?

    The rubber bumper things on the side are called body side moldings. They are available as a dealer installed accessory. https://www.honda.ca/civic_sedan/parts-accessories Though there may be third party versions as well
  5. Rust Protection

    I would be very leery of that dealer implying that is an official Honda Canada product. I think that is total BS. I am surprised a dealer would use that advertising. From Honda Canada's official warranty book page 14: "Application of additional corrosion inhibiting materials is unnecessary and...
  6. Rust Protection

    It's not a Honda rust coating It's likely a third party coating offered by the dealer, from which they make a steep commission. You already have a 5 year rust warranty from Honda. Like most it has lots of fine print.
  7. 2016 EX-T Strange Scraping noise at startup????

    50 Page thread here: Strange sound at startup: http://www.civicx.com/threads/strange-sound-at-startup.1304/ Another here: Weird noise during startup http://www.civicx.com/threads/does-anyone-get-this-weird-noise-during-startup.3242/#post-59426
  8. Wet Carpet under mats on passenger side

    There's a thread here Passenger side floor soaked http://www.civicx.com/threads/passenger-side-floor-soaked.3963/
  9. 2.0 vs 1.5T

    That would be the Canadian LX.
  10. GPS in 2016 EX and LX

    Your problem would lie more with the phone than the car. The cell phone can transmit it's location. Honda makes use of this. HondaLink assist requires a paired cellphone. no cell phone no Hondalink assist The cell phone acts as the transmitter, Honda has no need to deploy it's own...
  11. Warranty & Changing your own oil?

    Page 488 of the manual shows how to reset the maintenance minder. Basically when in the maintenance section: press and hold enter for 10 seconds to get to reset mode. Then pick and choose what to reset.
  12. Which civic sedan should I get?

    The Canadian LX has heated front seats as well. I think the DX is the only trim that doesn't.
  13. Electric parking brake problem

    Under some circumstances if you have used the brake hold or adaptive cruise control, the parking brake may engage automatically.
  14. Rear window fogging over brake light

    You're not alone, http://www.civicx.com/threads/rear-defroster.4012
  15. Can't find the the right fit in Michelin x-i3 for winter

    Michelin makes them in that size. Canadian tire in Woodbridge Ontario shows 20 in stock. I think that if you were to wait a bit, Costco and others will be replenishing their stock in the fall
  16. 2nd time since I have had the car and it's locked me out.

    same problem in this thread: http://www.civicx.com/threads/car-possessed-sometimes-door-does-not-open-with-fob.3829/
  17. Flashing red light?

    You just press unlock on the key fob. That stops the alarm. Took me awhile to find my key. Neighbours not impressed. lol
  18. Emergency braking assist

    No, not really. The radar has no problem penetrating the plastic housing. The plastic is transparent to the radar. It has to be. The same with the cardboard, it is also transparent to the radar. So no reflection. However the contents of the cardboard box may reflect radar, passing back through...
  19. Flashing red light?

    Actually the alarm works. Lock the doors with windows down, then reach in and pop the trunk. See what happens. Ask me how I found out lol. Mad dash to pick up keys, which are of course not where you placed them
  20. Flashing red light?

    It's the "security system alarm indicator" page 83-84 of the manual. I didn't notice for a couple of months . All the 2016 Civics have it
