  1. Type-R stolen?!

    10 minutes? A good tow truck operator can drag a car from it's spot pretty fast, pop dollies on the wheels down the street and they are gone.
  2. Compartment Liners

    Same piece of the set?
  3. Compartment Liners

    Got these just under a year ago. We had the liner under the infotainment start warping a week or two ago, then found moisture under it(not sure where that would have come from, we don't put wet stuff there). I contacted cupholder hero through their website and they thought the piece may not...
  4. Hope its nothing bad...

    Torque converter on a manual? :hmm:
  5. "Capless" Fuel Door

    Ice storms / a little bit of water in the fuel door sometimes meant that little flap would freeze shut. There you are standing outside in below freezing temps wanting to put gas in your car and you can't get the fuel in the tank.
  6. Just a pump in the trunk?

    Duh, I knew I was missing something obvious. Ah Mondays.
  7. Just a pump in the trunk?

    Will the stock jack get both the front and rear off the ground at the same time?
  8. Leasing issue, major regrets.

    A contrast to this is a perpetual car (lease) payment. What it comes down to is long term vehicle costs. Our previous Civic was a 2004. Bought new for 17K, paid it off in 3 or 4 yrs. Then we did not have a car payment for that driver for 14 years. Maintenance over that time was about...
  9. Buying without a test drive ?

    There's a few users here with Type R's in your area... https://www.civicx.com/members/rockymtntyper.19353/ https://www.civicx.com/members/johnnyanalog.13976/ Possibly others.
  10. 2018 Accord horn upgrade mod!

    Ugh that pinstripe with the Honda logo.
  11. Dealer added 60 miles to my type r..

    Dealerships and mechanic shops have garage keeper liability insurance for just such purposes. It would not surprise me if the laws were generally different in Alberta, but down here if the vehicle is in their care, it is usually their responsibility. Please show me a law or statute that says...
  12. Dealer added 60 miles to my type r..

    I agree that dealers are generally terrible. But that doesn't mean that the explanation for all situations/customer concerns is that they did something wrong. As far as an accident affecting your insurance, that doesn't sound right at all. The dealership has liability insurance for things...
  13. Dealer added 60 miles to my type r..

    Is that in the stuff you sign when you hand over your keys, that the dealership is required to tell you if they have to drive your car across town? Seems like awfully generous legalese to the customers benefit(not usually what that stuff is made for). A courtesy call is a courtesy. It would...
  14. Car stuck on Software Update

    Primarily, because there is no reason to have those systems relearn if it's easier to reset the radio by pulling it's fuse instead of disconnecting the battery. Other things like MPG may temporarily suffer while emissions systems relearn.
  15. Car stuck on Software Update

    You are misunderstanding my point. There are other systems besides the infotainment that 'relearn' after you disconnect or change a battery. Many folks may not want to reset these to clear up infotainment issues.
  16. Car stuck on Software Update

    Further, disconnecting the battery may reset some things in other systems that you may not want to reset. Pulling the fuse is the same and finding which one should be easy since there is a diagram on the cover.
  17. Dealer added 60 miles to my type r..

    I'm sure there is a wheel repair shop much closer to you in YYZ, but not sure how close the nearest capable shop is where OP is in Indiana.
  18. Hope its nothing bad...

    You jinxed it by talking about a Stage 3 clutch on Saturday. A TO bearing failure at 13k should be a warranty thing, do you have a good relationship with your dealership/their service dept?
  19. Hope its nothing bad...

    Yup. I've had that in my truck for a long time. The sound has gotten worse recently and now sounds kinda disturbing. OP-If others agree, and you need to fix it, while you have things apart it's a good time to throw a performance clutch in. And keep your foot off the clutch pedal except to...
