Re: A/C Question?

Mine sort of had the same symptoms. It would stop working mostly when stuck in traffic. And then sometimes come back when I got going again. I had it checked out and the incompetent place...

Re: 2000 Honda Civic won't start

If you never replaced that coil until now, you got lucky. Mine lasted about half as long, and when it died, did the same thing except I don't remember a gas smell. Unfortunately mine did it while...

Re: Aftermarket Cat Suggestion - D16Y8

I believe he said he took it off and saw it was melted inside. I'll double check when I pick it up, and maybe take it off myself.

Assuming the guy is right, I just wanted to determine if I really...

Re: Aftermarket Cat Suggestion - D16Y8

Mechanic said he clamped down the heat shields and everything else that could rattle, since the cat was the last thing he thought it was due to no code.

Noise is identical to this video: ...

Aftermarket Cat Suggestion - D16Y8

After having another mechanic look at my rattling exhaust, he concluded there is no leak, but rather the inside of the cat is rattling. He is surprised there is no CEL. I just did some searching...

Re: Symptoms of trouble?

Yeah I've come across them while Googling various things actually. Maybe I'd go there if my Subaru wasn't 8 months old and driven by my wife. The guy might actually know the 3.6 motor better than...

Re: Symptoms of trouble?

Yeah, if you look around you can find other people doing it for less, but they aren't close to home. A dealer in Philly advertised $399 for 4-cylinder motors but does the bare minimum service. They...

Re: Symptoms of trouble?

You made the right choice then. Leesburg town sticker runs me an additional $1 per $100 with relief on 52%. So on a new commuter worth 20k, I'd pay 428.40 to Loudoun plus 96 to Leesburg. So less...

Re: Symptoms of trouble?

I'm in Loudoun and I pay a town tax, so my estimate with the "relief" on the first 20k is that 600 number as long as I set the formula up correctly. It is like 400 county and another 200 town.

Re: Cooling fan not turning on

Mine will cycle on and off for about 45 seconds exactly. I was shocked at how consistent it is. I've observed this for a while and my temp gauge is always normal, even in 95 degree heat while stuck...

Re: 2000 Civic Antenna or not

Re: Symptoms of trouble?

Thanks for the thoughts everyone. Yes, 1k is ridiculous for the t-belt service, but you would be hard pressed to find cheaper in the DC area. I got several quotes at 100k from dealers and indie...

Symptoms of trouble?

I'm asking this on here because plenty of folks here have seemed to witness the death of various parts of their Civics. You guys are probably the experts on this car.

I have a '00 EX Coupe,...

'08 TSX - Anything to look for?

I'm toying with the idea of getting rid of my '00 Civic and getting something nicer. I've always liked the '08 TSX, and wouldn't be against the new TSX, but it wouldn't fit in my garage. The '08...

Re: A/C not cold when hot outside and engine is idling

I had something similar last year. It would also only quit blowing cold when it was nice and hot and I got stuck in traffic. Once I got back up to speed it was fine. Checked the fan and everything...

Re: Vibration at start up - Troubleshooting

I'm thinking motor mounts too, but was wondering if it was related to the other vibration I hear at all. I was also puzzled by how there is no additional vibration while driving, just idle when I...

Vibration at start up - Troubleshooting

I'm looking for some suggestions on what to look at, and if it sounds like something I even need to worry about too much.

I have a '00 EX Coupe, AT with 184k on it. Just recently I've started...

'00 EX Spraying Oil in Engine Bay

I was wondering what some more mechanically inclined people thought about the issue I am observing on my 2000 Civic EX. The shop I brought it to didn't see anything and my inexperienced self cannot...
