or you might try your closest dealership.
The upgrade for the D17 is K20, not B16. B-series rotate counterclockwise, while D- and K-series turn clockwise. While you could do B16 swap from the 1999-2000 Civic Si, it has less troque than the D17. You can probably go as big as K24 from Accord/Element/CR-V or hot tuned K24 from TSX.
It has to be a way to fix this problem without shelling out so much cash. Any suggestions ?
It is what it is...maybe you should just buy a car with a V-8 or something.
Thanks

When the SRS light is on the air bags won't deploy, even in a crash. The guy is trying to scare you into payin ghim to fix it. See if there is a warranty on the airbags and the control module it self. Chances are that a lose connection or dyeing alternator caused the light to come on in the first place.
Is it something different than standard dealer route ?
Valuable advice needed.
Thanks
Or, go to the American Honda Ownerlink website, register for an account, then add your Civic by model and year or by VIN. You'll be able to view the Owners Manual as an Acrobat PDF file.
Note: Owners Manuals are only available online for newer models (it is for our '02 Civic Coupe but not for our '99 CR-V).
Good Luck.

I have a 1993 Del Sol and just went over 100,000 miles a few weeks ago. I have never had any problems with this great car until last week when the "Check Engine Light" came on. I continued to drive the car home (15 miles) and all appears to be fine. I checked the temp, oil, radiator, gas cap secured, fluid levels and everything appears to be normal. The next day I drove the car 30 miles to work and back (60 miles total) because I had no choice and the car drives just fine? I have no idea why the light is on? I had a full service tune-up at 93,000 miles. Any ideas?
guess what mileage i'm getting now!?
29 MPG wow !! I just changed the engine oil and it jumped from 24 to 29 mpg!!
i didn't think engine oil would make that much difference!! :P
did you ever resolve your issue? I have the same problem and would like no know what you did?
Thanks
Thanks
I have a 2005 Civic VP with 8K miles.
I have noticed the exact same problem you are describing. A slight hesitation when going from reverse to drive.
Have you heard anything about what is wrong? I have a service appointment scheduled for this Thursday.
Since it does not do the problem you described every time, i am concerned that they will not be able to "re-produce" the problem in the shop and will tell me something to the effect that it is all in my head.
Any info would be appreciated
Is this a problem with anyone else?! I love my
car, but this is getting frustrating!
Help please!
Fortunately, my check engine light came on for a few hours last week. Because of this the honda dealership was able to determine that there is indeed a problem with the transmission, something about a sensor.
Anyway i was told that there is a back order of 1-2 months for the part by honda dealerships - apparently this problem is not isolated - no mention of any such service bulletins out there - at least not yet.
I have had them in rain and they do handle it well, I have yet to experience them in snow.
I hope this helps.
I can't thank you enough!!! Now I'm going to take my wife out to dinner with the savings!!!!
I am a proud owner of a 93 Honda Civic EX-4dr-5 spd. The temperatures during the summer time in Houston Texas are in the range of 92-99 with high humidity. As I drive on hot day , I turn on the A/C, set it to low, and the cold air begins to blow. After 5 mins, the A/C starts to blow warm/hot air.
As I drive at night and the sun is not out, The A/C works better but the coldness of the air comes in and then goes away. Again, my A/C blows cooler at night and longer than 5 minutes. At night I still encounter the problem with the coolness of the air leaving and then coming back. I have read in the owners manual that my 93 Honda Civic EX-4dr-5 spd uses R-12 but it does not give me solution for the car symptom.
Its my hope you will read my message and be able guide me to a solution.
Thanks,
