Replying to: thegraduate (May 22, 2009 6:05 pm) http://www.vtec.net/news/news-item?news_item_id=828861   No new civic model for 2010 nor 2011......   "Civic As the current body style debuted in the 2006 model year, the Civic received its MMC last year. In other words, minimal changes are expected for 2010. For those who are counting on the Civic getting an FMC next year, think again. The Civic has generally been on a 5-year model cycle, which means the FMC (full model change) would normally be expected for the 2011 model year, but we have heard through several sources that the 8th generation Civic's model cycle has been stretched a year and the introduction of the 9th generation Civic has been pushed back to the 2012 model year. The good news is, this gives Honda another year to consider bringing the brilliant Japanese-spec Civic Type R over, but will they? Sadly, the answer is likely "no". Summary: Few changes until 2012 FMC. Watch For: 6-year cycle for 8th generation Civic. Also watch for people expiring due to prolonged holding of breath waiting for a proper Civic Type R to make its way to our shores. Available: August/September"

Replying to: cleveohio (Aug 24, 2009 3:44 pm) I'd simply look at some other civics and see if they are like yours, or have H in that position. Replies to this message: cleveohio (Aug 25, 2009 1:00 pm)

#501 of 542 Knocking in 2009 Civic? by toofast2 Aug 29, 2009 (4:29 pm)
My 2009 Civic makes a quiet knocking noise, its very fast and quiet and only is heard if the car is going above 55, and you take your foot off the accelerator and back on. Anyone have any suggestions to whether this is an issue? Replies to this message: mark19 (Aug 29, 2009 4:35 pm) toofast2 (Aug 29, 2009 8:42 pm) mark19 (Aug 30, 2009 11:12 pm)

Replying to: toofast2 (Aug 29, 2009 4:29 pm) sounds like spark knock. Have you gotten gas from a different station recently? like your last fill up? Sounds like the fuel is watered down and you're not getting the correct octane (87). Try getting gas at another station (a high-volume station) and it should go away.

Replying to: mark19 (Aug 29, 2009 4:35 pm) I normally get 89 Regular from Lukoil or Shell. I guess I'll talk to a dealer. Thanks. Replies to this message: mark19 (Aug 30, 2009 11:12 pm)

Replying to: sandg1 (May 22, 2009 5:13 pm) Yea, they said the same to me. they told me its because since the tires are low profiles, more water gets into it when it runs thru a puddle or so. It's not actual RUST, just surface corrosion.

Replying to: toofast2 (Aug 29, 2009 8:42 pm) um, you're buying 89 instead of 87? I've seen many cars (odd i know) using higher octane than what they call for and having issues. You should definitely try 87 octane and see if the problem still occurs. The dealer won't do much for you, sorry to say. Except to tell you to "try other gas". Just try the lower octane, and try something else instead of Shell. I know with my old civic using Shell caused a lot of rotten egg (sulfur) smell and lower mpg's. and you're welcome, glad to help out
