Honda Civic FD Body [ARCHIVED]

[Bravoexo]

Use clay guys... easy to remove those water spots with clay. (not PLAYDOH, ok he he he)

[Automahn]

Im clueless and have not experienced the 'sipa.' Baka naman ang nangyayari sayo eh yung 'gear hunting' na tinatawag. Supposedly, this should have been eliminated by Drive-by-Wire Throttle system. Pero nangyayari pa din ang gear-hunting lalo na sa pag-menor at alanganing pag-stop dahil aandar na ang nasa harap mo. It happen right before you arrive to a complete stop then press the gas pedal ulit. [menor?]

Also, I hope you are not over-reacting to every bits and pieces that you observe. You could have been brainwashed by the so-called 'lemon' word. Kaya medyo paranoid ka na sa observation mo :evillaugh

Nadali mo sir Karding! Yun nga yun, nangyayari pag nagmemenor bago lumiko sa mga kanto tapos halos pahinto na yung auto sabay tapak uli sa gas, ayun parang naghihingalo na naghehesitate yung makina for a second or two. Pero ngayon ko lang naexperience 'to, after logging 4,700+ kms on my odometer. Yung sa kin parang naggegear hunting between the 2nd & 3rd gears.

Nope, I'm not a suggestive person. Kapuna-puna lang talaga 'tong bagong gimik ng auto ko.

[petjdm]

I knew it! :evillaugh

kaya when driving on a traffic, naka D3 ako to prevent gear-hunting [according to the owners manual] pero hindi maiiwasan dahil ang gear-hunting nangyayari din between gears 3-2-1 hindi lang 4-3 gears.



I left my black FD unwashed for 2-weeks. Yung trunk nababasa dahil sa hamog at natutuyo na lang throughout the day for a span of two weeks nga. Ayun, may water spots na at kailangan yata ng detailing. Mahirap pala ang black car, high maintenance

btw, that water spots caused by sunlight direct to the paint with water droplets, nangyari din sa akin yan, gnamit ko lang ng liquid compound, pero hirap mawala,, yep nagtataka ako bat FD sinabi mo, pero its ok, nice FG, even blue may water spots makikita pero not barely makita... if u look it close up, makikita mo


bout yung "Lemon" issue, aside sa find out s nila sa causes sa paint defect, di ba yan effect ng pollution which made acid rain?... there is circumstance na baka nag ulan, den nag react... malay mo... yan ang cause.. hmm just a theory...

FD is the chassis code for sedan

FG is the chassis code for Coupe

FG1: R18
FG2: K20 variant with 197-hp

black is beautiful, sakit naman sa ulo

Thanks for the info Karding
FG w/ 197hp, ito siguro ang Si.

Bravoexo, thanks, I'll try clay pag may time, cguro this weekend.

[man19]

oo nga.. im back again, for my FD, no problems at all.. sau man19, may problems ka sa paint or something sa interior? still fine pa sa akin, pero natatakot ako mangyari yung mga paint defects....

no problems pa nmna...ok nman ung paint and interior. sa performance ala nman ako problema. nging problem lng tlaga nung auto ko is ung power windows pero since nung dinala ko sa CASa d nman bumalik ung cra

yeah, nkakatakot nga din ung mga probs na lumalabas lalo n ung lemon.

question lng sa mga tsikoteers have anyone here had a paint protect from Ziebart? Diamond finish in particular? ok po ba to?

clay na naman? wahhh the last time I used clay was on my previous white Mazda3, inabot ako ng dalawang oras cge, pag tyagaan ko na lang this weekend.

kaya kanina bago ako umalis, pinunasan ko ng chamois yung trunk ulit. Sa trunk kse nag-se-settle ang droplets.

ironic, dapat nawala na ang gear-hunting. I guess yung nawalang gear-hunting is between 4th and 5th. Nangyayari din sakin yan kapatid.

*Karding, di naman buong kotse may water marks, diba? Di ka aabutin ng 2 Hours kung isolated lugar lang yung may water marks... (btw, WASH the car first, before claying!)
