Note…I work around diesel engine HP fuel systems. 1. At least on the diesel side, Bosch doesn’t control their stuff the greatest. Can you tune the PID control for rail pressure in Hondata to account for the increased pump flow. 2. Diesel pumps operate at another magnitude higher of pressure to...

Checked the version history on my ‘24 and it was already on the version history shown in Djsetos post. I did have a SW update performed by the dealer back in June when it was in for a CEL. I wonder if that update is juts being pushed now, but some ‘24s were delivered with it.

My FL5’s fan motor is quite loud, but not the squeaking/chirping I normally associate with failing motors. It sounds like a small leaf is in there, but I’ve pulled the filter to look for debris before.

Both the normal Civic and the Type R use Fuyao glass. The Type R is just laminated according to the markings in the lower corner. The normal Civic’s use solar acoustic glass. The cost increase is likely because of the reduced volume. The acoustic glass was probably too heavy (gotta make sure the...

The factory fill was on the thin side for me as well. The silicon content is from sealants. The wear metals and silicon content should drop a bunch for the 2nd change.

Car Shampoo: Previously Meguiar's Gold Class, but trying out their D110 Hyperwash. I spot wash things like bird poop with Meguiars Waterless Wash and Wax. My biggest revelation has been an AMMO NYC tip to spray some quick detailer on the drying towels when drying. I'm using Adam's Graphene...

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...

Hasn't happened again to me. I'm just assuming it got some bad gas. Have an autoparts store check and see if any codes logged or use your own code reader. I personally use a Carista adapter paired with OBD Fusion on my phone.

Nobody?

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.

Cool. I guess I was thinking the engine mounting/transmission would have been close since they are both K series. I was thinking that wiring up the C2 ECM to the A2 harness and then retuning the engine made the most sense in my head to get around the digital dash. I have an FL5, so purely a...

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...

Thanks for keeping everyone posted. Haven’t noticed the issue on my FL5, but definitely checked it to be sure.

Something interesting to me is that both mine and OP's (2001) oil have viscosities at or below a 0W-20 at 100C (6.9-9.3 cSt). High wear metals (Al, Fe, Cu, Sn, Pb, Cr) are to be expected. I expect to be in the single digits next oil change. The bottom section you tells about the oil additive...

Adding in my first oil change at 5000mi.

Not sure you are going to see 40+ on the Type R. The Type R has a higher rolling resistance with its larger wheels. More aero drag with the extra downforce. The engine displacement is larger, increasing pumping losses and its also running a lower compression ratio. I bought an SAE paper for...

Heres an image with the PN I found back when I was looking for them. I ordered from Bernardi Honda.

Thanks for the reply. I updated my post because I can’t stand coming upon posts that have no follow up. If someone comes across this post later with a similar issue, they will know that there’s a good chance the code is a false trip. Not sure how I feel that my car had a false trip before its...
