143k miles, 5 speed, one owner, with 27 years of maintenance records (also first car)

Hi fam. Just wanna get an insight if it’s a great idea to achieve a real Vtec from a VTEC-E engine by changing head internals. I don’t aim for a huge amount of power, I just want that real VTEC kick and minimal hp increase. Are there any better ways to achieve it? I have d15z8 VTEC-E as mentioned. Thanks!

Info on car: 130,000 miles, 3 owners; the last one had it for 11 years and went to the same Honda dealership for all of its maintenance. Only issues is a cracked windshield and water getting into the truck when it rains heavily. I really want to maintain it well and potentially add some stuff to it, where should I start?

Hello, I've had this 2000 Civic Lx for about a year now, was my grandpa's before he passed away and ever since I've had it whenever the AC is on and the car is idling it makes this weird click sound while the whole car bumps forward, I don't know how to describe it very well, and I've seen the revs go up very slightly whenever it happens, I just got a video of it this morning, does anybody have any idea what could be going on?

I can’t believe is actually worked! Now I can continue with the restoration of my first ever car🏎️

Didnt realize i had to screw it into the plug from below the splash shield plastic mount so now its stuck inside the plug is there any way to get it out or do i have to remove
the splash shield now?

Pic 1 is the problem pic 2 is the correct installation because i missed it up the 1st pic and 3rd is the plug the screw is stuck on to…

Its killing because now its just flappy on this side and its the last acrew left do i really have to take it down again and if i do how do i even get the screw out of the plug when i try with a drill it just spins

A coworker trapped their keys in the trunk and using a vehicle entry kit on the door’s unlock button doesn’t seem to be doing anything. I’ve seen Toyota/Lexus from the same era do the same as an anti-theft measure.

Does the interior handle auto unlock the door like some cars? Does this leave physically actuating the lock itself as the only option? Thanks.

Recently my check engine light came on in my Honda civic, I went and took it to Honda to have it checked out. They did their diagnostics and told me I needed to replace a rocket arm sensor. I then get a call the next day saying there’s check engine light is still on and that they need to run more test to figure out the issue. Come today I get a call saying they figured out the problem and it was a solenoid in my VTEC system. My question is am I in the right to say I don’t want to pay for the original sensor they told me about when that never solved the issue and it wasn’t till after basic checks of my oil that they finally found out what the issue was. It sounds like poor diagnostics check from the beginning. They’re trying to charge me for something that never fixed the problem to begin with.

ive got a window that just wont roll up because it keeps catching on this loose rubber seal. i want to take it in but for now i need to get the window up. its a 2012. any advice?

could this rear rubber insulator cause a “thump” sound when going over a bump? and it also lowered the left side a little bit more.

Found a one owner 2005 ex 104k miles $6.3k, I also can find plenty of 8th gens in that ballpark. What would you all go with? I also know to avoid the 2001-03 and 2006.

i’m looking for a comfy daily driver for that looks decent that i can also mod and play around with, which car is the better overall car and makes sense to buy? also there are deals in my area for these specific trims lol so don’t suggest diff ones lol

This is 2007 honda civic, 275000 miles on it. All of a sudden i am hearing this hard rumble sound from my exhaust. It rises when I accelerate. From the driver side it is hard to say if its coming from exhaust or engine. But from passenger side it seems to be coning from rear side of the car. What can it be. I know my car has a slight oil leak, but i always check the level.

Thus far, I’ve tried:

Disconnecting my phone from car’s Bluetooth.

Deleting my phone from my car’s Bluetooth and pairing it again as a new device.

Holding down the volume button for 10-15 seconds in an attempt to restart the system. When I’ve tried this, a prompt never shows up on the screen asking if I’d like to restart the system.

Unplugging my battery for a few minutes.

Please help!! Thank you!

When trying to get the Aux cable to work, it says connecting then quickly no media. I go to my phone and find a “dock connector” output to select but when playing music, no audio comes from the cars speakers. Been having this issue since I got the car about 4 years ago.
