Civic 2006 to 2011

Hi all new member here, just bought a 68 plate (Jan 2019) Civic 1.5L Manual Prestige, running on petrol. I was reading the car manual which says it is ok to use regular petrol aka E10 ones temporarily but not for ongoing use as otherwise it might damage the engine. Is this actually the case? I am not sure if I am prepared to pay for the premium E5 petrol on a regular basis in view of current sky high fuel price in the UK...but then when I look at this official Honda article on this topic it seems to suggest both E5 and E10 petrol are fine to use. Any advice are appreciated. Many thanks.

Hi all, New Honda ownere here, recently picked up a bargain Civic 2.2 ctdi. I've notice the temp guage never quite hits the middle even on extended drives (see pic) The heater does also seem a little weak in cold weather. Is this right or is the the thermostat shot? Is there any way I can see what temp the engine is actually running at without a diagnostic machine? Cheers, Niall

Hi, I have a 2007 Honda Civic type S 1.8. When the car is started I can hear a grinding type noise, but when I press the clutch down the noise goes away.

I own a Civic 1.8 SE, on an 07 plate. It is by far the best car I have owned and has been very well behaved and reliable. Brakes replaced, battery replaced, brakes replaced again including rear discs this time. Battery replaced again. Rear number plate light filaments replaced and by far the most awkward job, front nearside side light filament! Today, the central locking has failed combined with unable to cancel hazard warning lights (alarm). Engine starts as normal, hazards activate, after approx 30 seconds hazards de-activate for a couple of seconds and then start again. I have checked fuses, seem OK. What to do next. Please Help!

Hi guys, i have a 2006 honda civic 1.8, a few months ago when not started for a couple of days the battery would drain, and i would have to jump start, then all would be fine as long as i started and ran the car daily, the past couple of weeks as soon as i turn off the engine the car is dead and will not start, i changed the battery a few months ago thinking it was that, the car runs fine when running, i am reluctant to take to a garage as im worried they will throw the parts cannon at it, Also i did remove the bluetooth module as i had heard that this was a common problem with these cars, it made no diference thanks steve
