Similar deal on my 2006 - did the upper control arm replacement but the dealer wouldn't replace the rear tires, not visually worn but noisy, still had 8/32 tread, new is 10/32. Dealer said to call Honda and start a case file. I did hear back from Honda, they tried to tell me I had gotten 75% use out of the tires and out of the goodness of their heart would pay 25% of the rear tire replacement. Told them to keep there 25% and my next car will be a Toyota

Oil use by nealm

I am surprised by the fact that I have been down a quart in 3000 miles.. 60000 miles on the car (manual, EX), 50/50 highway/local driving. Using Mobil One, no leaks in my driveway, oil changes at a quick-lube every 4-5 G miles. Please advise or share your experience. Thank you. PS. The oil stick is not very legible.

2006 Civic LX - Electrical Problem? by bearcat4
May 31, 2009 (2:31 am)

Bought new, my 2006 Civic LX has been problem free up until yesterday. The vehicle has just 21K miles on it. Turning the key on, all warning lights on the instrument panel began flashing, the temp gauge and fuel gages didn't register. Drove car okay to dealer and left it for diagnosis. Anybody had this happen to them? What happened and what was the solution? I'm hoping that with 21K on the car (the 3 year warranty expired a month ago) Honda will take care of this problem. Otherwise, I'm very fearful of this likely expensive electrical repair.

Funny swoosh noise by kathyc1

I've noticed a strange swoosh noise while driving my '07 Civic EX coupe this A.M. It stops when I stop. Anyone suddenly notice this? I checked the tire pressure thinking it might be that since the motor continues to run when the noise stops so wouldn't be the motor. One tire is one pound low, but otherwise they're all the same pressure. Any ideas?

I just bought used 06 LX , 105K . Do I need to change timing belt? or it's use chain? Do I need to change it? Can I wait for a while? I read some topic that it has recall on something. Is it free if I go to Honda center/dealer to check and change those things, if I bought it used? BTW, my insurance get higher $500. Is it because I got a newer car (my old one, accord EX 98) or because this model (civic LX 06)?

I need to replace the tires on my 06 Civic. I live in Michigan, so I am looking for an all-season tire that will get me around in the snow. I would appreciate any recommendations.

I replaced my 06 civic tires with Michelin Primacy MX-V4 's and have been very satisfield with them thus far. I live in the northeast and they handled well in the snow last winter. Hope this helps.

Checkout Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S. Great High performance All Season Tires.
You have a choice between H or V rated tires. Unless you often race or drive fairly fast, I would go with H rated tires, which cost a little less.
 
In my search for tires the tirerack.com turned out to be an excellent resource. They have very detailed results on each tires + user reviews. Hope this helps.

I bought Michelin Pilot Exaltos at a very good price from Costco and I am very pleased with them. They function pretty nicely in the snow and rain and are a great dry road ride.

2006 civic ex 4dsd sunvisor problems by shakes67
Jun 06, 2009 (9:48 pm)
Reply
I have an 06 civ 26,500 miles on it and started experiencing problems with the drivers side sunvisor falling down and obscuring vision while driving. It started making a noise first than a crack, after that the visor would not stay up. I took it back to the dealer and they did the right thing but was advised that the extended warranty does not cover this and the part cost 60 dollars excl tax/labor. There are numerous complaints filed with the nhstb about this defective equiptment but it appears Honda willnot take resposibility til someone is hurt/dies. I have had to bring this car in for a recall on the abs sensor, a pulley bolt/had to replace the power steering pump at 18000 miles,brakes had to be replaced and rotor cut due to uneven wear at 15k,the driver's seat had problems locking,and had to replace my bridgestone turanza tires that came with the car at 24k because there was little tread left but the dealer says it's normal wear. I rotated the tires every 5 k w/oil change so that excuse holds no water with me but it's singing to the choir to get results. I don't won't to pass judgement on the other honda vehicles but stay away from this civic step up to the accord or another brand.
