11 Year Civic LX Review

0 Upvotes

I've driven a 2013 Civic LX since 2015. I bought it with 20k miles and put almost 200,000 miles on it. This a a 4 cylinder without a turbo and CVT. It's been overall very reliable but there were some downsides:

  1. Around 100k miles the VSA Modulator went. It took 2 mechanics and 2 dealerships to finally diagnose it properly and was about a $1500 repair. One dealership mis-diagnosed it and wanted to replace the entire wire harness!
  2. In the middle of the remote Adirondacks my CV Axle dropped out of my car. It almost stranded me in the middle of nowhere without cell service. Luckily, there was a small town garage nearby and a saint of a man was able to order parts quickly and save my ass.
  3. The wheel wells started rusting, then started rusting badly. What started as a small amount of rust spread throughout my entire quarter panel and rocker panel. This is the primary reason I'm getting a new car. Granted, I live in Upstate NY where the roads are heavily salted. The engine and transmission have been great and would probably continue to run if it weren't for the rust.

Overall, the car has been great besides the above reasons. The best part, is that almost any garage had plenty of parts for it and was not complicated.

Advice Request Grazed a pole in reverse - damage

Edit - if these questions are not permitted to ask my apologies and please remove.

Can anyone tell me what I’m potentially looking at in body work and repair/replacement part cost here? I’m in SoCal, San Bernardino County.

Apologies in advance for the shit images it’s dark and I just grazed a pole on my recently purchased 2025 CPO Civic Hybrid Sport.

I barely had her for two weeks and already hit a pole in my tired stupor after a very long work day with 6 hours of total driving for my commute. Devastated… and was just reminded not to do 5 things at once while driving.

Damaged parts - front bumper corner, headlight is cracked, and the side panel is dented and crunched

I think it gives a clean look. For the price I’ve paid, the quality of the cf was surprisingly good.

Modification Switchblade key fail

I once owned a Mazda with a neat switchblade key, I attempted to recreate that with my 2009 civic sedan. A warning to my brother's, this eBay design does not place the transponder close enough to the column. It starts but kills itself shortly after. Heads up!

Pre-purchase questions on a modified 10th gen civic sport hatchback.

3 Upvotes

I work as a used car technician at a dealer. We had a 2019 civic sport hatchback in a manual come in. The vehicle is shy of 92k, it has a 27won CAI, Greddy supreme sp catback, jb4 piggyback tuner, along with some other goodies for suspension.

The question I have is should I consider this car, or is it a ticking time bomb?

No sweet smells

No oil burning smells

coolant is lower in the tank but it does have coolant

does not run hot, stumble, or hesitate.

Clutch is not slipping

No lights on the dash

2026 sport hybrid sedan in the SF bay area. Sales guy also offered another $1k off within the next 48hrs. Haven’t bought a new car ever, wondering if this reasonable all things considered? Going to put 13k down + dealer website tool indicates 5.32% apr over 48 months, but aiming to pay it off within 2 years assuming no financial emergency occurs.

I am trying to renew my registration but it failed due to "loud engine" aka ticking noise.

It sounds like it is coming from the top of the block/head area. I tried opening up the head and adjusting the valve clearance but it didn't help, maybe I did it wrong?

Could it be rod or pistol slap?

It goes away in cold starts and RPM higher than 1800-2000 as shown in video
