#1138 of 1193 Re: Air Conditioning Problem [hondacat17] by mark19 Jun 19, 2009 (4:27 pm)
Replying to: hondacat17 (Jun 19, 2009 12:47 pm) To protect the front condensor (looks like a radiator for the a/c). You can install a mesh to the grille many of which I have done. Just get some metal gutter guard mesh from lowe's, home depot, etc. it's about $1.49, you cut it to shape and put it on the backside of the grille opening. Using black UV zip-ties you attach it to the grille. It will take you some time if you don't take the front bumper off, but it is something you can do with the bumper attached. Air flow isn't reduced, and the front condensor is protected.   If you got a hole in the a/c compressor itself, not sure how that could happen when there is a plastic guard piece that runs along the bottom side of the engine and protects the accessory items like the alternator and compressor. are you sure you don't mean the front condensor?

Replying to: sierragranite (Jun 17, 2009 9:07 pm) Thanks for the tip. I will pay attention to see if I am pressing one of the buttons on the key when turning car on.   Also, I just returned from a long trip (1600 miles) and car performed perfectly. I now need to keep on eye on my rear tires to assure the recent fix (replacing rear arms) is the final fix.   Got ~38-39 mpg, drove 70-75 mph, through the East coast mountains, car full of stuff pus my 6 1/2 ft son...the car was a pleasure to drive, including at 80 mph when he drove.
#1140 of 1193 My dumb luck by hatemyhonda Jun 24, 2009 (6:51 am)
Bought my daughter an 2006 Honda used only had 15000 miles on it and for the first year ran great. Then all of the sudden this June, something started clanking in the engine. Honda replaced the whole engine (took them two weeks), Now there is something wrong with the transmission. (Had it a week supposedly took care of that). We get the car back YESTERDAY and the check engine light is still on! Have not received any paperwork from teh dealership and of course no help with transportation while they have had it the WHOLE month.   I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER HONDA PRODUCT EVER!!

Replying to: hatemyhonda (Jun 24, 2009 6:51 am) I feel badly for you and your daughter. Too bad you didn't find this site before buying the car. I seem to remember someone saying there were dealers that won't even take the 2006 Civic as a trade in. I've had no real problems with my '07 coupe, but I keep an eye on everything and still come here to get the latest information on it after a little over 2 years of driving it. I some how feel that even so, I won't buy another Honda either.

Replying to: shakes67 (Jun 06, 2009 9:48 pm) This has been a problem for quite a number of owners. Some were able to get repairs while others had no such luck. I think the interior is a hunk of junk. I bought mine new (strictly for the MPG) and had a scratch or scuff every time I sneezed. Replies to this message: kathyc1 (Jun 25, 2009 6:02 pm)

Replying to: roundtrip (Jun 25, 2009 2:41 pm) I agree the interior is cheap. I can't lean on the interior of the drivers side door without leaving a smudge of sun screen or hand lotion. And it won't come off, not even with Goo Gone. Anyone have a suggestion?

Replying to: sandman_6472 (Jun 26, 2009 12:57 pm) LOL. I didn't really mean that I lean on the door all the time. I meant that when I touch the door with hands or arms in getting in or out it leaves a smudge that won't come off.
#1146 of 1193 help with my civic please! by johnboy1983 Jun 30, 2009 (6:06 am)
i have a 2006 1.8 petrol civic. my problem is this:- anytime i go for a longish drive, or drive on a motorway, when i arrive home there is a run of water coming from the underside. this isnt just a trickle, but a good run of water. i have checked the radiator, and the expansion vessel coming off the radiator, but cant seem to find any problem with them. the radiator is full, and the expansion vessel has water halfway between the minimum and max lines. does anyone have any idea where this water is coming from? please help, i dont have a lot of money to get it fixed!!

Replying to: johnboy1983 (Jun 30, 2009 6:06 am) If you are running your a/c system during your drive, then it could be normal water condensation from the a/c system.
