All New 2016 Civic

[MamBad]

Visually no leaks. It was only when the warranty specialist tore down the parts and tested if they were still within standards did they find that the engine mount needed to be replaced.

Rattling/dribbling sound when going over uneven roads (but not deep potholes). Pag malalim yung lubak, the shocks would absorb the impact properly. But if it's something like the uneven asphalt pag tinatapalan yung daan, dun siya nagrarattle.

No pics? I looked at what Vibra-Technics has...none for the CivicX yet. They make really good & lasting mounts.

Just the rattling sound I described in my previous post. Also the car shakes when in reverse and revved above 1500 rpm.

The sound and vibration were actually intermittent but I'm very OC with my car so I had it checked early on. My fiance didn't even notice there was anything wrong.

None eh. I left the car with them late last Monday and picked it up yesterday. I trust the guys over at Honda QC naman.

I have my Mazda for when I feel like tinkering by myself. Mas maraming sira yun, but thankfully with patience and luck we were able to sort it out and the Mazda is actually track-ready. It even clocked in a faster laptime than my Civic. [emoji23]

Always nice to have a project alongside the daily for good boredom therapy, right?[emoji4]
By the time warranty expires, pretty sure good upgrades will be out for the X. Currently, Powerflex already has PU bushes out. From experience, these are really durable. A lil noisy once grease dries up, but they last. You guys might wanna check em out.

It's very good you posted the experience pare, it's something we civic owners be mindful about now. I'd like to believe Isa ka sa mga meron high mileage na civic fc dito tsikot.

I think I have the highest milage Civic nationwide. [emoji23] haven't seen anyone post a higher mileage than mine even on the FB groups.

Oh I see. Not comparable then. Thanks, sir.

diesels are generally more expensive to maintain - pricier lubricants, filters and parts. mas mahal pa nga servicing (and maigsi service interval) ng japanese and korean diesels kesa european brands dito sa atin.

thanks for the info. this is more prevalent sa cr-v's and accords na turbocharged. not to say na hindi nangyayari sa RS. ganito rin issue sa mga bagong subarus. sana pansisnin ito ng honda philippines. yung sa RS ko nga na may rattling sa cvt mapa cold or warm startup na may TSB na sa US market, di pinansin dito e (or baka deny nila na wala silang alam kasi "ako daw ang unang beses nilang naringgan ng complaint na ganun"). got a lot of other things na ipapa-warranty ko rin, dina divert lang nila usapan.

This is happening to the 1.5T Earth Dreams engine which the RS has. Let's await how Honda plays this out. In China, a Stop-Sale order took effect. Class-Action in the US.
In the meantime, it might be best for RS owners to keep monitoring oil levels. Oil dilution is definitely a major concern.

I use mineral oil for the Civic because of the shorter intervals (PMS every 3-4 months). PMS costs will be 1.5k higher if synthetic.

CRV only has 11,000 km right now so only had 1 PMS (10,000 km) so far. 4.8k with synthetic oil.

*jut703 - Mineral oil 3-4 months. Every 5K kms yun change oil or 10K kms pa din?

Yun ba post mo na Every 10K PMS cost bale mineral oil yun?

TIA!

10k km PMS intervals even with mineral oil.
