What are the disadvantage of the AWD 2018 Honda Civic Type R?

I'm thinking of buying a new car but it has to be fuel efficient, yet powerful. The Type R Civic caught my eyes all thanks to its all angular and sleek designs, DRL lights, modern engine technology and the use of a thinner grade oil that I assume will improve engine performance and fuel economy. I'm assuming it will have great fuel economy due to its turbocharged engine and the transmission mounted next to he engine, despite it being an all wheel drive.

Is the Honda Civic Type R's engine more powerful than most V6 engines?

my family islooking for a Sedan but with lots of power since we're all heavy. My dad is thinking of a Type r because it has a turbo engine, but my mom is thinking Chrysler 200 because it has a V6 engine. Both produce roughly the same amount of horsepower.

Are the new generation Honda Civics all that good?

I'm talking about the ones from 2017-2019 Everytime I got out on a drive I see maybe 10-15 Civics mostly black ones the LX or EX models. I even see a lot of Uber cars that are civics. My friend said they are cheap which is why people get them but they are also reliable and have outstanding fuel economy. BQ: What kind of car are you driving?

Honda Civic LX 1998. Should I keep or try to sell?

So I have a Honda Civic LX. She is 20 years old with about 70,200 miles on her. I bought the car from my grandma about two years ago with about 50,000 miles on her. My sister and I both learned how to drive on her. My grandma drove the car very little in its first 18 years. Since buying her, I Drive it daily to and from work, sometimes twice a day. I usually drive between 8-20miles a day, give or take some. Since buying her two years ago these are the repairs I have gotten done - new muffler - some new belts (not quite sure what they were called - new radiator and water pump - new timing belt (And possibly another thing or two, just can't think of it all) She is now making a rattle sound in certain rpms and a buzzing sound when accelerating. I'm going to take her a mechanic this week, but i'm guessing she needs a new exhaust system/catalytic converters. In your thoughts and opinions, should I spend the money to get her fixed? Or just drive her until sh...

Will yamaha sort out their issues in 2019 season?

I'm sure hoping so, not looking to great atm but if they can it could make the most interesting year in gp. Great to see vinales and vales up fighting for podiums with the ducatis and hondas again, probably with the suzukis alot more next year also.

Roughly how much could I get from selling my hybrid car with a dead hybrid battery?

I have a 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid with about 175k miles. I'm the second owner and there's nothing else wrong with it besides the dead hybrid battery. The battery is very expensive to replace and it's honestly just more of a financially smart decision to sell it rather than spending about 2,000 on a new battery. I just want to know what is a decent price to let it go for considering the hybrid battery is dead ultimately making it useless until replaced.

Brand new Honda Civic: weird sound on startup?

Brand new Honda Civic: weird sound on startup? Added (1). I recently bought a new 2019 Civic, and it makes a weird "pew-pew-pew" noise when the engine starts, like a tiny sci-fi laser gun being fired. (Video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1RnIg7UzsQZj2jKca40xbA7bKvXidSxFX/view) It goes off about 10 times in quick sequence right after the engine is started. It appears to come from the left side of the dashboard. Does anyone have any idea what it is and if it's normal? Thanks in advance! Added (2). Don't tell me to go back to the dealer, I'm not retaded and I could figure that out myself. I wanted to see if someone has an answer before I make the extra trip. Apparently not.

98 Honda Civic Stopped in the road with flashing engine light and had to tow it home?

My Civic stopped (169k miles) while driving and now won't start. When checking codes by OBD II scanner, it shows P303, P304, P300 and P1399 which is misfire. Any ideas, how should I go about diagnostics. As car is pretty old, not worth of taking to mechanic Thanks in advance.

Is Mobil 1 a good oil to use?

Like on any Honda, Nissan, Chevy is it good? I used the 5W-30 version on my last oil change earlier this month. I did it at a Nissan dealer. He offered the cheaper conventional oil but my personal mechanic I had in the past suggested to always get Mobil 1. The conventional oil was $50 cheaper than Mobil 1. Does it run better with your car? My friend said its a scam and he rarely gets oil changes. He leases a car for 1 year every year so he never really does oil changes.

Honda Fit 2017 Lock Problems?

The car was involved in an accident and I just repaired it. The battery is not working (i'm yet to change it) but, there's something else I noticed. Either by using the key fob or manually locking inside. Only the two doors on the passenger side respond. Both driver side and back door simply do not respond. Any ideas? Could it be battery? Or something else. Read more: Honda Fit 2017 Lock Problems?

How do I know if my car value has dropped and how much it has dropped?

I bought a new car on June this year, and 2 weeks ago, an incident happened and the car was damaged pretty bad. The car has been fixed and now it looks like new. The incident is not my fault, and I believe it is cause by a defect of the car itself even if the maker, which is Honda, denied it. I probably need a lawyer to talk to them but that is another topic. Now as the car has been repaired once, how do I know if t he car value has dropped? And how much it has dropped. Is there any place I can take the car and evaluate how much its value is? Added (1). The reason I'm asking the questions is that I plan to ask Honda to pay for my financial damage, including the depreciation of the car, my rental car, my insurance deduction, and so on. I have specific numbers for all the others except the depreciation of the car. That is why I want to know if there's anyway to find out.

2014 honda civic keyless remote programming?

Ok so I guess I have 2 questions in 1. First is it possible to program a replacement keyless entry remote if I've never had one since I got the car? In other words there's no original id be programming the first one. And 2 is it possible to program the remotes from my 2003 honda pilot which I don't need anymore to my 2014 civic?

My motorcycle was completely out of coolant, should i be concerned?

I recently bought a 2004 Honda VTX 1300. It only had 5000 miles on it, and i've put about another 500 on it in the last few months. I never checked the coolant level until today, and I noticed that the coolant reservoir looks completely empty. I haven't had any problems with the bike, it starts right up and runs great. And the temperature light has never turned on. The only thing i've noticed was today after i let the bike idle for about 15 minutes, i turned the engine off and heard a weird sort of whining sound, which stopped when i turned the power off. Anyways, i'm going to buy some coolant tomorrow, but i was wondering if i should be concerned at all that there reservoir was completely empty? Added (1). I do plan on finding out if there's a coolant leak, and where. I guess my main question is whether it is possible that there's already permanent damage to the motor, even though it seems to run perfectly, and the temperature warning light has never lit up?...

Is there a way to find out the percentage of how off my motorcycles odometer will be with non-stock gearing?

The front and rear sprockets on my Honda CBR600 have 15 teeth in front and 45 teeth in the back. Stock gearing for my bike is 16 teeth front and 43 teeth back. I was wondering is there a formula or anyway I can figure out roughly the percentage my speedometer and odometer is off by?

Is there any way I can put in an aux cord to play audio if I only have USB ports?

I started leasing a 2019 Honda CR-V recently, and the only inputs seem to be USB ports. My friends like passing around the aux cord when we drive places, and though the CR-V does support Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, switching between a lightning cable and a micro-USB seems like a hassle (since they have different phone models). I found some USB to aux adaptors online, but the reviews on them say that they can't be used to do what I want.

Can I switch seats in my 06 Honda Pilot?

Okay guys this might be a doozy of a question and yes it's serious… I have an 06 Honda Pilot, it seats 8, so the driver seat, passenger seat, a middle row bench seat, and a third row bench seat. The third row completely stores down so that the trunk is flat, the second row 2 back folds forward but not completely down in the second row can slide forward. Here s my question, is there a way to take the second row bench seat out, take the driver seat and passenger seat and center console out and place the second row bench seats in the front of the vehicle where the driver and passenger and center console was and take the driver seat and passenger seat and put it in the second row so that there's kind of a center aisle towards the third row bench seats?

How reliable are the 2016-2019 Honda Civics?

My girlfriend's 2005 Chevy Malibu is on its last legs and I told her to stop repairing that piece of junk. Transmission problems, oil leaks on the bottom of the car mind you it is only 98 000 + Km. That is pretty low for that year at least. I told her to get the Civic, and she is approved to get the Civic EX 2018. She says it looks good, but is it reliable? We see a lot of people drive it on the road a lot everyday. Would buying the touring or Hatchback model be more reliable than the EX?

Where should I take out a car loan?

So I want to buy a 2019 Honda Accord hybrid. I'm 27 years old and this will be my first time buying a car without my parents by my side (maybe I should have mom come?). My credit score is around 700 and I was just wondering where is the best place to take out a car loan. I bank with suntrust currently. My last car loan I took out with Santander for a $13500 car and ended up paying $26000 but I think it was bc my dad had to do-sign and he had bad credit. I don't want to run into this prob again if possible and I want to keep my payments no higher than $300. Can anyone give me any tips? The car is $25000 and I plan to put down a $5000 down payment Read more: Where should I take out a car loan?

Why my Temperature gauge keeps going up and down?

I have a 05 Honda Civic EX, my temperature gauge has been going up and down. I thought that maybe it was the thermostat and had it replaced but I'm having the same problem. It actually has got worse when I'm driving the gauge goes up but when I let off of the gas it goes back down but once I start pressing the gas it will go up again. When i'm at a complete stop it goes up slowly too, i notice when i have the heater on once it starts blowing cold air the temperature raises. I checked the coolant and its fine so that's not it.

Bought my car brand new, not sure if I have the title?

Sorry if I seem clueless here, i bought my car brand new from a florida honda dealership, I paid in full. I just moved to another state and went to register my car here the day before my registration expired, but realized I didn't have my title. They gave me a temp till the end of the year until I return with my title and smog check certification to finish the registration (already paid for it) It's been a year and a half since I bought my car so my memory is fuzzy but I don't remember ever having it in my possession. While looking for it I did find a paper for an application for title though. Is it possible I haven't had a title this whole time? Can that even happen if the car is registered under my name? Was I supposed to take care of that and never finished it? Help and advice would be appreciated as I'm running out of time to get my registration finished before the temp is no longer valid. Thank you so much. Read more: https://hondanews.net/bought-my-car-brand...

2007 Honda Civic LX having fuel pump issues or perhaps other starting issues?

My 2007 Honda Civic LX 1.8 L is having some issues I believe related to the fuel pump but not sure. We replaced the fuel pump in September of this year, so only 3 months ago, and now the car is having problems starting again. The old fuel pump that was in there somehow shorted out and even melted the wiring harness. This one was properly installed. Yesterday I was out driving around running errands and was driving the car for quite a while, then I went to start it and it took me 4 tries but it finally started. It would turn over but would not start. Early this morning when it was cold the car would not start at all, it was jump started and still nothing. Just the turning over but not starting. Later this afternoon when it was warmer it started just fine first try. Everything electrical in the car works too. Do you think the fuel pump has gone faulty or could it be something else?

Why people buy those POS Harleys?

Why don't they buy a Hayabusa? Harleys are low, long, heavy and expensive. Whereas Hayabusa is comparable to a Bugatti Veyron. Plus, Hayabusa in made in Japan, so it's got Honda like reliability. Harley, on the other hand, break down all the time. So… Why people buy Harleys? Must be a baby boomers' thing which a millennial like me would never understand!

Should I trade in a Honda for a cheaper less reliable car?

My Honda Civic is worth about $12,000 and I want to trade it in for older and higher mileage Honda CR-V or Element which cost about half that. Not only do I want a larger car cause the Civic is so cramped but honestly I could use the extra money. My family is totally against it saying I should keep the Civic since it's paid off and super reliable also got 60mpg recently. Normally gets 50mpg on the freeway while CR-V or Element will get half that. So do you think I should go ahead and trade it in or keep it?

I have a 05 honda civic ex My coolant temperature been going up and down.
