All New 2016 Civic

[niky]

Niky is the hatch version of the civic coming to out shores?

Don't know.

No reason not to, now... since the hatch is now based on the same platform, rather than being a bastardized Civic-Fit hybrid.

The fiesta and its ecoboost engine is cool but lack of paddle shifters is a No-no for me. And the dct issues in traffic are legendary.

Yep, paddle shifters would be highly appreciated for the Fiesta or Focus. Those rocker buttons on the tranny lever are not that easy to use. The good thing though with DCT is that it is quicker to shift up and down compared to my mere mortal abilities. I guess DCT or DSG is not that easy to deal with but no complaints on my end even with the addition of the Jetta 1.6TDI. I find that DCT feels more responsive compared to the CVT on my FXT.

How's the CVT on the new Civic? Do all CVTs offer the same feel as those with Subaru? Does the base Civic 1.8L have paddle shifters? My brother-in-law is thinking of getting a Civic 1.8L.

Tapos babagsak pa suspension pag 5 katao ang sakay. May nagtest drive sa pims nung sat, 3 magkaibigan. Tapos 2 na taga honda, bagsak na suspension. Parang mga mirage. Halata mong puno ang karga

RS Turbo owner here. yes totoo yung aircon problem (if problem talaga sya) kasi napapansin ko it usually happen yung your feet is not on the gas like if traffic or drive thru. pero nakakinis kasi dahil minsan mainit tapos biglang magiging ganon. ayoko naman na lagi ko i on then off para lang lumamig ulit baka kasi masira.

Kamusta na po yung ac ng civic ninyo sir? I also saw civic owners complaining about kalampag and unwanted sounds sa steering. Some even say na hindi din alam ng casa pano aayusin yung problem sa ac and it is also the problem of civics in the US.

I am still in the process of choosing between the civic and the altis. Ive test driven both. I hope civic owners could enlighten us with these issues. TIA

my question is bout the cvt trans, ive noticed that alot of americans hate the cvt trans, i havent driven one yet so i dont know how to compare, most of the cars sold here today have cvt trans, ano ba pros and cons nya?

[Egan101]

CVT helps in promoting fuel efficiency. Well, that's what most manufacturers tell the world.

To those who have driven cars with CVT, the main concern is the lack of feel when the tranny shifts up or down. In the case of my Forester, it's hard to notice the way the tranny climbs up the gears.

Like the usual AT tranny, CVT also needs to be maintained properly. Lack of maintenance or deliberately skipping fluid changes will surely be a recipe for a tranny failure.

i see,so unlike a regular auto tranny na pag tinapakan mo ng mabigat e, mraramdaman mo yung pagshift nung tranny, with the cvt,pag tinapakan mo e tuloy tuloy lang yung pagtaas ng rpm.
