I hear a bunch of people complain about Honda paint being too thin or soft, but with this FL5 being my first JDM car, one of my biggest disappointments has been the windshield. Just over one year in and it looks terrible. Pits everywhere, thankfully no cracks or spiders yet, but it looks...

Does anyone have recommendations for a tool to set the EPB to maintenance mode? I’m debating something like the Autel MD806 Pro, or whether I should go for a tablet like the MX808 or Icon T7. I would prefer something that doesnt require a phone app. I know there are work arounds by removing the...

Are the 11th gens (FL5 specifically) fitted with any type of solar glass, or am I reliant on aftermarket tint to deal with UV/IR. It looks like the OEM supplier is Fuyao. My FL5 however, doesn't mention anything about solar or acoustic like the image below. Just says "laminated" . Makes sense to...

Just curious if anyone else sees the front lips support structure showing and causing a raised section right under the Honda badge. Tried to get an okay photo, but hoping I’m not getting deformation from summer heat or something. I can also see 2 lines fanning out that I’ve drawn in.

What would it take to swap out a K20C2 and swap in a K20A2 or K20Z3? With all the NA/manual options dying out, seems like it'd be fun to have a modern civic with a screaming 8k rpm NA engine over the 1.5T.

If I was looking at a K20C1 in a salvage yard, how could I tell if it originated from an FK8 or FL5? Does Honda distinguish a version number or revision number or something somehow since they do have different hardware (inlet pipe, turbo, etc)? Is there a serial number break?

Is anyone else experiencing issues with the drains at the bottom of their door clogging with debris? Opened my rear driver side door this morning and a small waterfall poured out despite the rain stopping before I got up. Pulled up the little black strip at the bottom of the doors and all three...

Has anyone seen this code pop up. Looks to be for the fuel level sender, but the fuel gauge seems to be working fine.

Has anyone else encountered an issue where there is no radio output? I commonly use Pandora through carplay for music. Today when I started the car it did its little boot up, but the audio never started playing. Tried adjusting volume, turning audio on/off, and changing source to FM with no...

Is there a way to shut off the engine of the manual transmission cars while keeping the audio system alive. For example I get to a destination, but am still on the phone. I want to shut the engine off, but still use CarPlay. Same goes for just wanting to finish a song before leaving the car, but...

Does anyone know the feature set that the Bosch ECM opens up over the K20C4’s ECM that drove Honda to use it and only make it available on the Type R’s?

Is there a straightforward way to limit boost or activate a limp home mode to limit the car’s power as a valet mode of sorts? One of my previous cars had a fuse on the wastegate control solenoid that could be pulled and limit the engine to 6-7psi of boost instead of the full boost of the car...

Asking out of curiosity at what rpm the exhaust cam switches over. Hoping the folks in here that are tuning these engines know what the OEM software logic is.
