Don't forget to give your Honder a head pat.
Switching from double wishbone to macdonalds was the beginning of the end for Honda
>>28748299There's some good Mcdonalds stuff like the 10th gen Accord/10th-11th gen Civics that I like but I do miss when Hondas were kinda sporty on top of everything else, now they're just high speed fuel efficient cruise missiles, which I guess is okay.

Request for a color? I will upload it it and post a code
anyone else have autistic logs of their maintenance?
>>28750377you should also have another column for how much spent at each step to know how much you've sunk into it
>>28750381I keep all the receipts but I don't feel like witnessing the total in one place. It'll hurt.
>>28750385Same I once did an autosum in Excel of every repair and maintenence my car has as early I could find going back to 2005, it was a little over $21,000 in maintenance spend over 22 years, give a take an oil change or two.
>>28750381Hang yourself, Acura shill. No one is going to drop $60,000 for an Accord with a bigger grille.
>>28750377I used to but I've only run my Honda twice this year.

>>28760140Same, the 11th gen sport is such a hot little daily for the money, even the base LX is a nice car that I'd be in it if I didn't have a CM.
>came here few weeks ago, spoke to some anons about my car's weird behavior>2002 accord was randomly turning off>280,000 miles so its well worn but many people swear I can get another 50k out of it easy, "that's barely broken in for a Honda" etc etc>some anon here told me new distributor should fix it>got that done, same problems persist>google says new fuel pump>had that done, same problem persists>last thing it could be according to shit I've looked up on google is ignition coil + maybe spark plugs>both will cost nearly as much as the other two replacements be real with me, /o/, will this fix my shit or do I just need to start looking around? I'm using my mom's spare car right now but I'm getting really tired of this whole situation. I kind of have my eye on this 2012 Acura TSX with 140k miles but its 200 miles away from me so if I make the drive I'd have to buy it to justify it. Probably not the best car out there but its one I've had my eye on for a few years now so if I'm going to get a new one I'd rather get a car I actually want. But the same dealership has a 2008 Civic with 120k miles too so I could fall back on that too I guess if the Acura looks like a lemon. But I'd really like to get my car running properly right now considering, the way it is now, I doubt I would even be able to sell it off to help offset a new car.
>>28750377I have a flashcard that gets oil change date, type, filter yes/no, air filter yes/no. I do have a folder with receipts but I don't log it anywhere.>>28758746I have that thing on the left. It spins very bad, especially in the cold on all seasons.>>28760142> littlefuckhueg
Anybody here ever adjusted the valves on a 2012 civic with the 1.8 liter engine. Do they actually need it done?
>>28761097>fuckhuegBarely Anon, the civic is a proper midsized car, it's perfect.
>>28761063Get the TSX, the K24 engine is so sexy, I have one from 2003 in my Accord and it's still running fine
>>28761333It's horrible unless you actually need the backseats. Btw, saw the new gaylude today - it's the same size as a 9th gen Civic coupe, the way it should be. Anddd it's hilarious how good the Rs look in show rooms when compared to irl with a tiny bit of dirt on them. All cars I guess.
>>28761306>Do they actually need it done?Schrödingers valve job
>>28761306I have never adjusted valves on my 2004 piece of shit and it still sounds fine at 180,000 miles, seems like a meme service unless your valvetrain is literally making ticking noises due to the valve lash being way off, but if it's idling quietly, you're in good shape.https://streamable.com/m3jew2

>>28768062It's all part of growing up, Anon.
>2026>I'm forgottenWhat went wrong? LFA is dead for so long and I thought the NSX was also discontinued but it wasn't, no one gives a single fuck
>>28768214I prefer the NSX as a brokie, but the thing clearly didn't have the clout of a Huracan (or the V10 noises) for 157 grand, and who knows what any dealer markups were going on in 2017 like the FK8 Civies, so you could've been paying 200 grand for an albeit based as fuck NSX that no one really cares about because it's not a Lamborghini.
>>28768214>If you notice, we make an NSX when there's something we want to say. The first-gen was gas. Second-gen was a hybrid. There's gonna be another one." Ikeda hinted that the successor will be powered by an all-electric powertrainitsover>>28768280What stopped Honda from making a GT-R?
>>28768345NSX was their GT-R-like halo car Anon, it was 573HP turbo V6 and AWD just like a GT-R, I think the low sales had to do with the cost, we're talking $160,000 dollars for an exotic Jap car, when Nissan will sell you a 600HP NISNO GT-R for $18,000 more or $46,000 less for a regular GT-R with 565HP, which is hard to believe such a bargin existed looking back at it.

>>28750377bros do I get my valves adjusted at 120k?
>>28768483I wouldn't if the car is idling quietly, I'm at 180K and the engine is fucking purring.

I have this 2013 civic and I cannot get the driving lights to align.Both burned out a day apart, I replaced both. And not one shine lower than the other.I tried resetting it twice. It's in correctly but not shinning right.The high beams are correct so it's not the housing.You can see the driver side is wayyy low and the passenger side is meeting up with the high beam.What else could it be?This is very annoying
I'm putting a Bilstein B12 kit on my beige-interior A6 CL7 because I got it at literally half usual price via my job. Am I retarded? My rationalisation is that I'm prolonging the lifespan of the car and that I already had an excuse to freshen up the suspension anyway due to MOT advisories.

New FL5, anyone here have experience with rock guards? I think this needs them at least on the front.
Is it true 80% of new Hondas are leased? How did it get this bad, bros...
>>28763223I went ahead and did the valves. I was at 206400 miles. Started it up the other morning and she was rattling pretty loud, but did quite down some when it got warm. No other issues other than noiseNot a bad job, all videos show removing cowl for better access to intake valves but I didnt. All exhaust valves measured out at .013 with the specs being .009--- .013.Intakes were all over but they were all loose. Its a little more quiet at cold start, doesn't run a bit better. Will see if my gas milage gets better. Currently showing 36 mpg, use to get 38 to 40. Big whoop, huh.
>>28769572Got specs wrong. Exhaust specs are.009--.011Work was hell today

>>28748306The new acura stuff is going back to double wishbone, so there may be some hope for the future. The CTR, prelude, and ITS all have the triple ball joint double wishbone/mac strut hybrid, but I doubt that's going to come down to normal cars. The new prelude just makes me sad, maybe it's just the unreasonable price point, I don't really even care that it's slow>>28768062It's because you appreciate how they don't need to cope, there is such an insane amount of trash on the roads even from new. >>28769543It makes for a pretty decent used market, leased cars have more eyes on them making sure the maintenance is done, usually with prepaid plans
>>28776020>The new acura stuff is going back to double wishboneYeah the TLX is a little hottie, but can you imagine a stripped down, cloth seat TLX with all the sweet driving dynamics and just sold as an Accord? That's basically what the 2003-2007 Accord was, it basically was a TL and why everybody loves it so.
>>28776024I had an 09 accord, it was technically similar to your definition but is was bigger, still about 300lb lighter than the TL. Really nice car, stick shift k24 sedan
>>28776040Based 09 Accord, that too was another one of these stripped down luxury cars, they were so damn good for being a decked out economy car, that the Acura brand was basically being cannibalized by the Accords even up until 2022 with the 2.0T Accord Touring, now things are returning to the 90s where the Accord is a nice car with pathetic horsepower, but if you want V6 power or a 2.0T, a double wishbone suspension, you're buying an Acura.
>>28776044I picked up a 2.0t 10 speed earlier this year, for sure it's one of the all-time best configured cars that exist. I would have gone for the manual, but I wanted to try the automatic for the extra speed and 4 overdrives. 85mph is 2000rpm lol, still has good cruising power there too
>>28776059>85mph is 2000rpm lol,Good god that's a glorious cruiser, I know manualfags love it, but the 10AT is the correct transmission for the K20C engine for accelerating fast as possible and cruising at stupid low rpms, and here I was thinking my CM was the bee's knees for cruising at 2900 rpm to go 85, but now it's looking like a shitbox 90s Integra in comparison with the cruising revs.
>>28775668yeah, 2.0 version. The car shows me an ID but the pin is just ------

Are 8th gen Civics pretty reliable other than the occasional transmission grinds? I want a fun daily and as much as I want one getting a 3rd gen WRX sounds like financial suicide.
>>28778631i meant the K20 Si specifically not just the Civic in general.
i want the new civic rims but theyre too expensive new.. where exactly do people buy them stolen?
>>28779373get a job
>>28779373They're not buying shit Anon, they're probably stealing them or their boy is stealing it for them, try to look at eBay for used "newer" Civic rims, that way you're at least buying shit in good faith.
>>287793733D print them
Happy Honda days bros, I hope your car has been good all year.
>>28779586
Merry Christmas. Found this on market place. Top is a before image I found searching the VIN, bottom is an image they uploaded they did mention they rebuilt it by hand. 2016 Civic, has 135k miles, and they want 6800 for it. Is it worth it, should I low ball or should I continue my search? Thanks and Happy Honda Days.
>>28780468Man, I know the paint on the front looks kinda shitty, but if that damn thing drives nicely, buy it a nice driving 10th Gen Civic for 6800 is such a nicer car than a 2004 Honda Accord for like 5 grand with more miles and age.
Need a double din kit for an integra, are my options these days still only metra?
>>28780833Metra's based as shit, probably still cheaper than the CM Accords $249 kit because the car is so stupid.
>>28748217Newfag to /o/ here, how does this board feel about the Honda Element? Heavily considering getting one.
>>28781058If you're into an unusual "multi purpose vehicle" with a reliable K24 engine, you'll like it, but don't expect good fuel economy, it's shaped like a brick and has a 4 speed auto with a very short 4th gear that makes it rev quite high for going 65 mph, also be prepared to pay a good bit of money for it, these things their own fanclub, so good luck even finding an owner who is selling theirs.
>>28780817Even with the prior accident?
>>28781123Hell yeah i like it for 6800 if it runs and drives nice, 135,000 miles isn't a lot and its a 10 year old car barely.
I've just noticed how my YT feed is full of Honda products. I'm not even a Honda fan what the fuck?! I love Nissan and Yamaha.This is my feed rn>royal enfield>HONDA car>ducati >HONDA car>HONDA bike>HONDA bike>harley+indian>Nissan+HONDA bike>Yamaha+HONDA bikeIs Honda really the best manufacturer? Can somebody elaborate?
>>28781058They're cool and unique but they aren't worth the price people ask for them. Gouged to hell and back. Frankly you're better off finding a 2nd gen CRV if you want a k-powered box.
>>28781139Appreciate the responses but someone snagged it while I was doing Christmas stuff. Probably won't be able to find a deal like that again.
>>28781539Don't worry anon, you will find something nice to drive.
>>28781539They're not always deals, anon, a lot of the times they're not put together properly.
>>28780897Metra is fine and does the job, I just wish they made the bezel pieces more sturdy. I don't know if it's the heat cycles while in storage or being crushed in transport but it's always a crapshoot you get a bezel that's slightly warped and doesn't sit flush in the dashboard.
>>28781937That's what a pre purchase inspection is for, isn't it?
>>28783089This, also you can't expect perfection and no accidents for $6800, otherwise a 10th gen Civic would go for $12,000-$13,000 that's what makes it a deal, I'd be losing my mind if I was told in 2016 that eventually you could get the "new Civic" for the equivalent of $5,000 in 2016 money 9 years later, and all it had was a front end accident repair and not an obscene amount of miles.
Honda really doesn't sell any windshield wiper linkage bushings? Fuck buying a whole new transmission for that shit
>>28783141They should, I was able to get windshield wiper linkage rods for the old ass CM Accord when the wipers were slamming all over the place.
Looking at exhausts for a 94 b18 integra and I'm specifically looking for a deep throaty tone. I boiled it down to the Greddy Supreme SP and the Revel Medallion Street Plus. I've had good experiences with medallion on a b20 del sol but I used to have a 6th gen Celica with a greddy and it was so good its the unicorn I've been chasing with Hondas since. What should I do?
I got some (front) passenger side damage last year and since I'm trying to learn to wrench, I want to fix it.It's a creaking noise that happens when I turn right, usually at slower speeds. No vibration or pulling. 2006 Accord.ChatGPT says it's either a:Lower ball joint (front right) - most likely?Lower control arm bushings - very likely?I know I have to look myself but I have never really dealt with wrenching under the car, this is my entry to that.
>>28784090Jack up carjackstand(s)wheel offinspect outer and inner axle bootsinspect shock bootinspect bushings---I would actually guess shocks, but it's hard to tell. With a car that age, all your bushings and shock boots are shot, so you can maybe take some pictures for us and we can tell you what's reasonably actionable.I have an 8th gen Si, ALL the bushings are shot and so are the shocks.
>>28783389Had a 1994 Integra, but some cheapo ebay exhaust, never regretted it once. Headers didn't fit though, so I kept stock exhaust headers and new all the way down. Had to cut all the bolts. Car fell apart before the exhaust did. I am: >>28783389
Did Honda ever fix this issues with the 1.5 Turbo?I'm interested in a current gen SI, but not if the engine is going to shit itself in under 120,000 miles.
>>28784292Don't know, but please don't pay markup on a fucking Si.
>>28784292Supposedly it got fixed around 2019, but the reason why the L15B turbos get oil dilution is multiple short trips that don't allow the engine to warm up fully. It also helps to keep oil changes on a consistent schedule, typically 3-5k miles
>>28784520This, also L15B motors are way more sensitive about not being maintained compared to an old K24, you can go a good bit over on oil changes on an old K24, drive it a quart low because it's leaking and the thing did not give a fuck, but the L15B will clog up the little screen on the oil feed line and ruin the turbo, and then even if you're a good guy who does his oil changes, you've got the head gasket thing that blows whenever it feels like it, which means you better be a big money player with over $5,000 in reserve to fix your car should this happen if you're gonna drive a 1.5T
>>28784549So basically they haven't fixed it, and it's a bad idea to buy one.
>>28784549Why did they do the ecoboost thing when Ford already proved it was a bad idea?
>>28784563I wouldn't recommend it, maybe if the car is brand new and you're good about maintenance it could go a while, but the days of buying a cheap used K series Honda with average or less maintenance and having a reliable car for the next 10 years are gone, I try not to think how hard it's gonna be to buy a nice used L15B Honda when they're like 15 years old with miles on em.>>28784565Honda really fucked up with that similar block design, which is fucked up because the bottom end of an L15B is typical Honda, it's actually amazingly strong, issues aside, the L15B isn't known for getting rodknock like a subaru engine does where the bearings and everything just fall apart whenever it feels like it.
>>28784133I hate how cheap exhausts sound, but I also hate how most expensive performance exhausts sound too. I think I'm going with the Greddy, youtube videos are terrible for comparing exhausts.
>>28784563If you can afford it, just buy an FL5. The K20C1 is worth it.
>>28780468>6800 for a 10th gen CivicThat's too damn cheap. I feel old.Is the title good? Does it drive good? Because it's got an A+ paint job on it for a rebuild. If the suspension isnt bent that's a winner.
>>28784571>because the bottom end of an L15B is typical Honda, it's actually amazingly strong, issues asideThe crank is basically flawless, rods are decent if you don't have a 1.5t hatch, pistons are usual cast ones although there are some differences. The biggest weak point in the L15B is the oil pump especially when tuned/running a higher redline
PRL rear motor mount on a type R, yay or nay?
>>28785291I personally wouldn't because Type R Civics are such comfortable cars for what they are capable of.
>>28785295but the wheel spin
>>28785297That is pretty true for launches, prl motor mounts and or traction bars would help
>>28785301People seem to be pretty happy with it, saying it also makes shifting feel better. My car is pretty new and has 5 years of warranty. I wonder if that will fuck with it if I change it. Maybe Ill get it in a couple years
>>28785319Aftermarket motor mount probably wouldn't hurt anything covered by the OEM warranty, probably better if the engine is moving less, I take my Accord on the touge and it feels like the engine is doing a fucking backflip under the hood when I go back and forth between engine braking and hitting the gas.
>>28785323maybe Ill check in with the dealership before doing it. Sucks that shipping the part from the US to Europe basically doubles the price
Picked up a 2017 civic hatch SX yesterday.But have to say goodbye to my 2004 2.4L Accord Euro.The accord was great but its age was becoming annoying (alternator dying, door handles breaking, etc).

Are the 2016 Civic EXs better than the 2019? Some guy is selling the 2026 for only $100 cheaper than the 2019. Both have sub 100k and both are salvage titles but that seems too close to compare

how do i get this 2008 ridgeline transmission drain bolt off? i put the wrench in and used a hammer and even tried kicking it to no avail. im just going to spray pb buster on it and let it sit. would be nice if i could use a impact wrench on it.
>>28787698can i use this to break the bolt loose?
The sound tune is ridiculous but 11th gens look so fucking funhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frBRTuIwkkI
>>28788477I feel like the civics shouldnt be launched like that but I can second that they are a lot of fun. I had a 10th gen sport hatch before I bought the FK8 R and it was a lot of fun to do a tune + full bolt on and just slam every gear.The type R honestly moves to quick to be able to drive like that Si did so I kind of miss having the slower car for that reason
Will a super cub fit into my Crosstour?
>>28787698long breaker bar, position it so you have room to force it in the needed direction, apply a bit of preload to it to take up any slack/play in the socket, then keep shoving the far end of it. don't apply constant force because that's how you round or snap the bolt
>doing pulls on this>red line at 7000rpm>temp never goes over 92 Cº>average temp is around 80~90 Cºwtf, are these engines just that good? this damn thing is 26 years old too. The radiator fan doesn't even kick in. I thought maybe there was something wrong, but wth
>>28789461Hondas are pretty based like that, unless you're dumping heat in front of my engine using the A/C and putting extreme load on it up a hill on a very hot day, it's practically never going to make the temp gauge budge just with beating on it, even in hot weather.
I let my uncle drive my lil Honder. He owns a Skoda Fabia diesel MT, an older model. He is revving the tits out of my lil honder and burning the clutch plates, he is riding it like an old tractor. Why are skoda drivers like this? I barely hear my engine, the only noise I hear is road noise at highways. Do you let other people drive your lil honders?
>>28789572>Do you let other people drive your lil honders?No.
>>28750377yes
>>28750377Yes, it's in a little notebook I keep in the glove box.
>>2875039221k over 22 years isn't bad at all
>>28789572I only let people drive what I am willing to get wrecked and that is currently nothing. My mom wants to drive my Type R and her vision is awful. Friends who can drive manual want to drive it but have extensive ticket history. Also its my daily so if they wreck it im fucked
>>28790462For a wrenchlet who doesn't know shit about fixing cars it's actually fantastic, and a lot of shit I've spent is nothing to even do with keeping the CM running, it's a lot of reconditioning, stuff like replacing broken stereo, replacing falling headliner, having the dented fender pulled straight, replacing the front bumper cover because I'm a dumbass and crashed it, I put everything into the spreadsheet.
Recently bought this one. It feels really well put together desu. I want to put the mugen kit on it but it's all but impossible to get all the parts.

>>28780468>Body lines not matching up anywhereRun away now it pulls to one side
>>28789461It could need a new fan switch. They're pretty cheap like $10 and a 2 minute install. Smart to get the radiator temp switch as well. They look the same but ones on the radiator the other is on the block under the distributor.
>>28791965I still like it as a $6800 beat ass car that is relatively new looking which you can daily without worrying about it, if you bash the car into anything, you crashed a $6800 car instead of a $13,000 car, I personally like Honda Accords for 6 grand, you can get a nice 8th gen with some miles, but they're not 10th gen Civics, and if you're not a stickler about your car being perfect and squeaky clean history $6800 is amazing
>>28791918>>28791923NTA but my 2021 was apparently owned by some Taiwanese guy (He left the bill of sale in the glove box). Intercooler charge pipes were held on by HVAC tape, intercooler its self had no support brackets. Plastic cracked all around. Bumper held on by zip ties and a suspension strut mount was snapped. Complete underside was plastic was damage as well as the front lip. Fog light was held on by one tapping screwNext time I buy a tuner car its new because I got fucked with how expensive the car was still sold for. In my defense I was retarded and awestruck by buying a car I wanted and didnt see all this obvious shit
>>28792543>Next time I buy a tuner car its newYeah that's the big reason I personally don't like enthusiast cars unless you can buy it stock, is the people who are drawn to it are shitheads, a regular car like a Honda Civic or Accord you can find well maintained its whole life and sold at such a great price without being hacked to shit.
>>28792549Yeah, it's been an expensive lesson. I wanted to keep the type R stock so when I found one that was stock I ended up learning its just has hidden abuse.I've spent like 4g's trying to either return it to stock or replace stuff with aftermarket out of necessity. Because I couldn't own the 25 year old car I wanted I figured buy one that I'll want in 25 years. Now im thinking with how fucked up it was I'm not sure it'll make it even with me taking care of it.Pretty sure it was a covered up wreck because all damage was passenger side. There was more damage but I've gotten it to unnoticeable levels.
>>28792561For what it's worth, the car looks nice Anon, just keep taking care of it and you will probably have collector value.
>>28791963san francisco? this is in japan bud
>>28792567It's my daily so I don't think it accrue too much value but it does pass the 5ft test fortunately. I appreciate it
>>28792580Shingo still hasn't mastered the Gutter Hook™ technique.
I have a Honda Stepwagon 2010 import. It's me who is driving my first car.
>>28792810>master1200laugh at this nigga
Damn, CMs are kinda cute
>>28792941You really think so?
>>28792997>$2k now in savingsThis is torture. There are a number of Hondas I would like to get to replace my 7th gen Civic but I can’t decide what.>get another CMIt’s not that simple! What if I decide I wanted to get a 6-speed CS2?
>>28792997Fuck yeah its cute as a button and those huge sidewalls are super tough
>>28793005Thay would be pretty got, that and the 6 speed CM
Old pic of when I got my '91 STD 4-spd stuck on a snow bank at the grocery store - except it wasn't snow. It turned to ice. Dad pulled it off with the truck. Took no effort to move it.
>>28793424Guy in my neighborhood had a teal LS swapped SI who always drove like a complete retard. He took a corner too hot and slid into a snow bank, spent about 10 minutes trying to get free and popped his engine. Good times.
ef 4 lyfe
New milestone get!
>>28795974Wouldnt have it any other way
>>28795995God I wish I had 76,500 miles
I think my vtec D17 has a blown head gasket, aint no way the overflow goes down that fast on its own.
>>28796381I would have it looked at for leaks, but if there's no coolant puddle underneath, it could be head gasket, I had a D17 neighbor who would often have his hood up adding coolant because it was eating it.
Car:/Car, Japan:)
>>28796385Big under steering shitbox:/Big under steering shitbox, Marysville OH:D
>>28796384I tried to find leaks, but the only thing I see is what looks like oil or something wet around the entire valve cover. I refuse to believe it's a bad gasket, I changed them all not too long ago. There does however seem to be some sort of wetness near the crank pulley, I'm wondering if it could just be a leaky coolant plug. And on top of that I found wetness on top of the radiator and down below near the petcock. Man this car is frustrating, but I love it to bits. I've already spent way too much money on her :(
>>28796395>I found wetness on top of the radiator and down below near the petcockI don't know how original your car is but it could finally be leaking at the radiator end tanks , would be worth it to pay a diag before writing the car off.
>>28798297I really hope that a K20C4/6MT or 10AT version is coming. The new Prelude is neat but it being hybrid-only is a bit of a deal breaker
An old person my family knows is going into assisted living and I have the option to buy their 2016 Honda CR-V with 20k miles, perfect maintenance, and garage kept for well under market value. I'm not particularly into crossovers, but it's a very competent car and is an upgrade over my shitbox. Will I regret not buying it? I suppose I can sell it and not lose anything if I decide I don't want it.
>>28798424Get it Anon, even if you flip it you win, it's a low mileage CR-V, every motherfucker and his bitch wife wants one
>2000 hondie civie>lightbulbs are old >install new LED's since all card on the road have them>great I can see everything now!>inspection today>this car can't have LED's, only halogen/xenon I fucking hate the EU and the infinite foid bureaucrats they got in there making all these retarded ass laws. >guy at the facility was awesome and let me comeback later with halogen>passed the inspectionnevermind the halogen bulbs were weak af and you can't see fuck all at night, but hey, at least it's period correct!!!!
Should I be worried if my title hasn't arrived in the mail after a week from registering at the MVD? I can't relax cause I think motherfuckers snatched it while I was at work and I have zero tracking or communication.
>>28798378Same, at the very least it should've been a very sporty little 1.5T car, the touge bois in my canyons drive fast as shit with 1.5T Civics, would've been cool to have a slow, but sporty as shit coupe to race around with.
>>28799561As a 1.5T Civic owner, yea it doesn't take much to get them handling well. FK8 rear bar + Accord end links, sticky tires, and new pads/brake fluid help a lot.
>>2879967611th gen civics are so cool they keep me hopeful for the future as far as where I can go for used good reliable car if I have to get one
I just bought a euro spec 3rd gen 2011 CRV, 2.0 i-VTEC. There's a few odd things about it. When I turn the wheel fully to the left and move forward, there's this groaning sound. The steering is really stiff/dead near the center and doesn't fully return to center after a turn. Any bump on the road will make the car steer left right or left until I readjust the steering at a result. This model has electric power steering, I did a reset of the steering torque sensor which helped a little but did not fully solve the issue.Finally there's this very faint rattling sound between 20 and 35mph in 2nd and 3rd gear, could it be the clutch? It was owned by a guy in his 80s.I honestly think I got scammed. I paid 12k EUR for it which is apparently a good deal for a 50k miles CRV in my local clown market but these issues make me feel unsure. I will probably sell it in a few months.
>>28800842If it's only one side I'd guess it's NOT the power steering pump/elec steering.Wheel bearing or CV joint would be my first guess.Unless you're hard up for cash do both because if one's gone 95% the other is close behind.
Rejoice!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_yQp4YVdQUg
interested to see how much this effects the car
>>28801469It's a noticeable change, especially from a dead stop. Have had one in my FK7 for the past ~2 years as a replacement for the 27Won street RMM
Can anyone with a type R redpill me on the 2nd gear grind issue and the maint routine of the FL5? Is it really the usual>Oil & filter>Pads>Air filter>Spark plugs etc.Also what is the turbo longetivity? I read the fl5 has 25 psi of boost, thats quite high.Currently daily a ND2 Miata and looking for something bigger to also transport my bicycle and other shit in. It's a tossup between the GR Yaris and the FL5. Thanks to my country's retarded co2 emissions tax laws a new FL5/GR Yaris will cost 95k euros. So I wont be buying any of these new but second hand when they are closing in on the 40k price range in a year or so.
>high pressure PS line blew out on CM>get it fixed>exhaust manifold still covered in PS fluid so it's smoking>throws code for P0420>beat the shit out of CM hoping to burn this shit off>it goes awayI guess the evaporating oil had a cooling effect on the CM's precat and it freaks out when the engine is hot but the cat isn't hot enough to work fully, so I guess this is a thing that can happen if power steering fluid squirts on the exhaust, but that scared me for a sec.
>>28750377yes, and fuel consumptionthere's a decent app for this called Car Report too, if you want to do it in your phone. i do both
>>288026352nd gear grind problem is embellished. I've had an FK8 and FL5, neither had an issue. Its people who try to slam 1>2 every single time that scream about it.
>>28805293Thanks for answering. Do you have any advice/things to know? Also do you recommend going 18 inch wheels over the 19 inch stock ones to reduce tire costs? I heard they burn through tires.
