Re: 2010 Civic Odometer Jumped ~40,000 Miles After Service

Re: Considering a 2006 Coupe, Need Some Advice

get the vin and ask a dealer if the vehicle had this issue prior, and if there is any extended coverage available. Not that I would worry about it at this point with over 100k miles, but it might...

Re: 2010 Civic Odometer Jumped ~40,000 Miles After Service

I personally would still be concerned, but less with the fact that all the keys worked and honda stating it would be difficult to do in that short of a time frame. Still concerned though.

Re: Moog rear control arms(non adjustable)

Re: 2006 civic Sedan Camber kit

just an FYI, SPC sells their camber arms to Dorman for rebranding. They are the gen1 s i believe, but @ $50/ea its a killer deal for SPC parts.
