>This one only has it for the third row
Chrysler was dicks and patented center row stow, which is why nobody else had it. The patent for 3rd row stow was an older patent, so practically every other model minivan had it. Just be careful. That one high-schooler died stuck under a odyssey seat.
>>

The third row will be stowed for now. It'll be a while before I can fill the whole thing. Mainly bought it as a stuff hauler for kayaks and shit. Just been driving it a lot because the tsx clutch bearing failed

I developed a mental illness, I can't find any other car that I like more than my FL1 and has AWD.
We had some big storms last season and I didn't really have any problems, but I feel like it's only a matter of time given the amount of miles I put on snow.

I drove an "awd" yaris rental in knee deep snow in Hokkaido last winter. Honestly just about anything works as long as you do it carefully and have snow tires on. Sliding on wet/compacted snow and ice at intersections was sketchy as hell however. But I was out pretty rural with little traffic.
Saw lots of people in ditches next to the road and tow trucks were doing overtime. I was surprised given that I assumed that locals would be experienced.
Currently own a FL5 so I can see why you love the car. The 11th gen civic is pretty dang good.

This always happens if there's a big storm specially on a weekend, when the once-a-year-family-ski-trip usually happens, and they have no idea what they're getting themselves into.
Pic rel was my scariest drive. That's all ice. Area is surrounded by hot springs so the heat and steam keeps this area in a constant melt-freeze cycle.

>The 11th gen civic is pretty dang good.
I know this is the we love Civics circlejerk thread but as I mentioned I've been trying to find a replacement with AWD and it just doesn't exist in my head. 11th gen just ticks all of my checkboxes.

Spent the last 3 months restoring my s2000 after owning it for nearly 10 years.

Replaced all 12 ballpoints with hard race
Replaced all bushings (20+) with spoon hard rubber
New OEM strut/spring assemblies
Replaced all driveline mounts with OEM
Replaced all cooling system components
Replaced outer tie rods and end endlinks
New Fujitsubo legalis R exhaust
New OEM flywheel, pressure plate, disk, fork, and bearings.
New rear main seal and trans input shaft seal
New convertible top from Robbin’s
New OEM headlights
New shifter bushings
New OS sensors and oil pressure sensor
New vtec solenoid gaskets
New OEM starter
New valve cover gasket, tube seals and plug and coil packs
Powered coaster valve cover
New valve adjustment
New timing chain tensioner
Painted all suspension components in Eastwood Matte Black Rust Encapsulator Plus
New PS4S tires
New rotors, brakes, and front calipers
All new fluids
New steel braided clutch line
New OEM clutch master and slave cylinder
New intake filter
New CR shift knob

Did all the work myself besides the convertible top install. Something like 13k so far. Finishing up final torque at ride height now and then getting an alignment. It's been fun. I love this car. Hardest part was the clutch since I did it on jack stands. In a more sane era, I would have spent a lot less but honda parts and quality aftermarket are really expensive right now.

Ty. The economics of classic hondas are getting wild, but so is care maintenance in general. I did the "while I'm in there..." strategy. Took me months to get the spoon bushings. Missed out on a good chunk of summer but I'm almost back on the road.
>>
>>29023498
The while you're there methodology is the best way of doing it, I had my control arms pulled out and new bushings pressed in, but I'm kinda pissed at myself for not replacing the entire control arm which would've had a new ball joint on it, my dealer hasn't yapped about ball joints being worn at 185K, but I should've just bought entire control arms.
>>
>>29023502
That's what I did for my 09 camry daily. I rockauto'd all new arms with new balljoints and bushings. 185k is a lot. My s2000 has 173k miles on it, was on original bushings/balljoints. Bushings were shot, balljoints were surprisingly holding up (but may as well replace them).
>>
>>29023510
>balljoints were surprisingly holding up
OEM Honda ball joints are the toughest mofos you can put on a car, I trust my 185k mile ones over brand new moog ones with the weird spline design that can eat out your steering knuckle and ruin it, and then fail and your car falls on the ground.
>>
>>29023514
I was sure to get new front lower ball joints from Honda. The rest are Hardrace-branded. Yeah the honda ball joints are absolutely fucking top-notch and if i could have bought them again, I would have. The hardrace ball joints use the same design but comes with a snap ring as well. Honda is actually insane and won't sell any bushings the s2000 unless you buy the entire control arm for 1k a piece.
>>
>>29023489
You can still buy new OEM S2000 parts? From where? If it's doable I might get a S2000 down the line.

Based, you'd be surprised how many miles you can put on an old Honda if you just stay committed to taking care of it, my Accord was 13.5 years old with 108K on it and we're 9 years, 77,000 hard miles later and I still trust it.

Reliable older Japanese cars are quite nice outside of two probelms:

How good is this trans fluid for an auto 2009 civic? Asked one of the guys at AutoZone which transmission fluid would be best for my Honda, he recommended this one. Now I'm looking at the 'for use with certain GM vehicles', and I'm having second thoughts...
>>
>>29028544
Autozone Fluids are fine in Hondas Anon, I've run Valvoline multi vehicle ATF to flush everything out and it didn't hurt it, what would be bad for Hondas is not changing it.

You want the Valvoline import or multi vehicle or whatever it's called.
Just turn the bottles around they list their comparable oem fluids.

alternatively, go to honda.

>>Trusting some dipshit at autozone
I did my research for power steering and motor oil, but I just bought this one on a whim to be fair.
>>
>>29028579
Lel Vatozone's oil and power steering fluid are fine too when I had leaks
>>
>>29028585
the issue isn't autozone oil the issue is that the shear and additive profile is not comparable to hondas DW-1. at minimum you should be using a multi-vehicle that lists honda, like valvoline maxlife or multi-vehicle, even if the difference is minimal why take the unnecessary risk with the already ticking time bomb of a slushbox

Are all Hondas a PITA to do oil changes on or is the B20 just a special case? I had to wrap my whole ass arm around the suspension contorting my body just to get the wrench in a position that could grab the filter since the exhaust and half shaft made it impossible to get to from underneath. Even then I was only getting 1cm of motion with the wrench. I kind of want to sell this car now just because of the motor, I don't like doing oil changes on it and the valves needing to be adjusted every 30k miles is retarded.
>>
>>29033469
The B20 must be weird because Honda 4 cylinder and even the V6 are a dream to oil change with their spin on oil filters that aren't in fucked up locations.

Best thing about the 11th Gen Type R is that the front grille is actually real. Pisses me off to no end that 70% of the grille is fake on my Hybrid.

I used to live and drive in japan for 5 years 2019-2024
I had a 2001 Honda stream, mainly because I had a kid but I loved that car but am not a car guy by ANY means

what modern honda would theoretically give me the same feel? I was thinking odyssey

I love the feel of the engine roaring despite the mom van look
>>
>>29036432
Oddyseys are good vans, but the closest thing America have got to an estate car was the Acura TSX sportwagon, as well as old Accord wagons from the 90s, all of which are pretty rare for what they are, but I think you'll like driving an odyssey.

>plenty of 10's and 12's though (supposedly the worst)
>saw a 2011 one, went for a test drive but it handled even worse than my current Accord
is she full of shit or is this true? Feels like a "broken clock is right twice a day" situation but I don't want to be buying a lemon either. My friend who is an actual mechanic said he doesn't work on Acuras that much so that's a good sign from his pov but he's not in a position to give actual advice. Found some good looking ones that are 300+ miles away but I don't mind a drive if its a worthwhile car.

Any input?
>>
>>29037065
I kinda like the later TSXs, never even driven one but they deleted the hydraulic power steering that the old TSXs and Accords have which leaks and costs the owners money if you need rack and pinion and pump.
>>
>>29037068
Funny you say that, I've had a few issues with the power steering fluid leaking in my Accord so this is a plus. I really want one but I'm kind of in my own head about it. Nothing is currently super wrong with my Honda but I've been driving it for a long time and didn't take the best care of it after I got it. Feels like its holding itself together with thoughts and prayers. Been riding around without a catalytic converter for a long time because the first two got stolen so I'm sure that has plenty to do with it.

They're fine anon, if you're changing coil packs with spark plugs every interval (ideal) then you shouldn't have to worry about it having a problem, I would trust Delphi made ignition coils from autozone over my originals from 22 years ago, that's why they're getting replaced next set of plugs.

bought a 1986 crx base trim automatic transmission with 31,000 miles, excellent condition, unmodified, starts and runs and drives perfectly
serviced regularly up until the owner died around 2020ish maybe, came with original sales receipt, dealership documents from 1986, miscellaneous service records from 1986-2012

the person I bought it from got it at an estate sale for $4000, only because nobody else wanted it, and I purchased it from him for $5k
