    I know civics whine in reverse, but i drove my friends 2012 Si, and mine whines a helluva lot louder than hers. At least 10 times louder! I love this car, but its the small stuff like the rev hang, clunky gearbox, and that freakin whine that are eating at my soul.

    I have read the OM and the only thing I see there for the 5AT maintenance is to check the dipstick and that you might be warned by the Maintenance Minder codes to replace the ATF. I've not been under a 9th gen with a 5AT to see if there is a drain plug on the transaxle. If there is none, I'd...
  3. Drivetrain Problems
    First of all let me say, I love this car and I am happy with it, but sometimes I feel that Automatic transmission is not up to the mark or it is not refined enough. May be just to get some more mileage they have tweaked it. Before this I used to own Corolla and Elantra (both Auto with 1.8l...

    noise when releasing the brakes hi! i have a civic coupe ex-l and it's just 2 months old with barely 1k miles. i noticed that whenever i'm on D, and release the brakes, i hear like a grinding noise and it's annoying. and whenever i'm on R, and release the brakes, i can hear a knocking noise at...

    just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. after moderately hard uphill driving (i live on a curvy mountain road), my civic's 5-spd manual transmission starts to whine. it's most noticeable going uphill in 2nd and 3rd gear, at 4k rpm and up. here's a video of what it sounds like. does...

    Hi Friends, I purchased my white 2012 Civic coupe a year ago. I have 8900 miles on it. I am very happy with the car. However, I noticed when I am driving it feels like the transmission is sticking or like it feels like it is in neutral. I am not sure how to describe it. I thought there...

    I just want to start off by saying that my si sedan is not having any problems with it. I just want to know if anybody thinks that the manual transmissions on these cars will have the same 2nd and 3 rd gear problems as some of the previous si and rsx cars have had? Sent from my DROID RAZR...

    Sometimes when I accelerate the transmission slightly whines, is this normal?
  9. Drivetrain Problems
    Hi when I'm braking and I dont go to a complete stop, the transmission seems to get confused and then upshifts and downshifts soon after, it also makes a noise when it shifts. is this normal and is there any fix to this? is this putting wear and tear on the transmission? PS:I know this happens...

    Rolled 1100 miles with my christmas road trip, and girlfriend had the radio down so we could "talk", lovely trip, but I noticed after driving for about 3 hours and getting off the interstate, the clutch was kind of squeeky. Anybody else notice their clutch making noise? It still grabs fine...

    According to the Civics listed for sale on the database, Cars.com, only 2.5% or 1 in 40 is available with a manual transmission. That's a really low number, even lower than the 3.3% rate reported for all cars sold in the US. Makes me wonder if the next Civic will have a manual transmission...
  12. Drivetrain Problems
    Hi, I drive Civic LX coupe with 1300 miles on it. I was driving on a flat highway and accelerating from ~ 60 to 65 mph when revs went up to 3500 and stayed like that for quite a while. Neither removing foot from gas pedal nor braking helped to bring revs down. I had to stop, turn engine off...
  13. Drivetrain Problems
    If I am slowing down, to about 10 mph or less, and need to accelerate quickly, the car will sometimes "stall" for about a second before it downshifts and takes off. The "stall" is not a true engine shutdown, but is a loss of all power. It happens almost always when I am turning left. It's not...

    How to safely use the D3 / 2/ 1 gears on automatic Hi guys, I just bought a 2012 civic sedan (automatic) which I'm very excited/proud of =) I've had this car for almost a week now. However today I was exiting a highway ramp and let off the accelerator but my rpm needle increased all the up to...

    She came home to tell me that when she was driving to work yesterday going 40 mph on a flat road that when she was coming to a stop light she started to break when the rpm's jumped up to 3 and stayed there so she pulled into a parking lot put it in park then it jumped back down. She found it...
  16. Drivetrain Problems
    my friend is teaching me how to drive stick and my parents are planning on buying me a civic soon since my little brother needs a car for college. my question is, how easy is it to learn stick and once i master / get the flow of things, should i get an SI?
  17. Drivetrain Problems
    hey, who has some real experience with these transmissions? My mechanic said how they are problematic and he doesn't recommended it, since he said the clutch tends to fail, gears slip, acceleration is bad at times.
