I would pop it into the dealer or any garage that has a scanner then they can look at any fault codes to determine where the fault lies

Eurocarparts is another supplier worth trying

The Catman may be a suitable supplier or even Eurocarparts may be able to provide one at a lot cheaper price than the dealer

That's a tough one and probably worth trying to replace just the motor as opposed to the whole rack I would also imagine it would need programming to know the dead centre position, etc and later governed by the sensors once the system is active

you can post it in the For Sale section of this forum Someone may want it to repair or spares

I would try eBay to look for anything similar (may have been another Honda model or even an earlier year) Too good to scrap for that part alone

Hi....welcome to the Club Good to have you onboard!

Honda’s iconic Civic is celebrating two anniversaries this year: 50 years of continuous production and 25 years of the high-performance, race-derived Type R variant, which rewrote the rulebook on what a hot hatch should be. Despite being born as the more attainable Type R, the Civic variants embody the Type R philosophy the maximum thanks to exquisite engineering and engaging dynamics. Over six generations, the formula has evolved to deliver the ultimate front engine, front wheel drive performance hatchback to customers. One that can comfortably handle the daily commute from Monday to Friday, before tackling the circuit at weekends. EK9 (1997-2000): An affordable, accessible Type R for all The Type R nameplate can be traced back to the 1992 Honda NSX Type R, which raised the bar on performance and dynamic ability, but was only available in extremely limited numbers. Applying the Type R philosophy to the Civic followed a similar engineering ethic to the Integra and NSX to offer an engaging, rewarding drive. The EK9 was offered to the Japanese market only and had a high-end specification; including a hand-ported 1.6-liter DOHC VTEC engine that produced a highly impressive 116bhp-per—litre, a lightweight seam-welded shell that contributed to a total vehicle weight of just 1050kg, paired with a helical Limited Slip Differential (LSD), and unique suspension components to completely transform the driving experience. Launched to outstanding reviews, the EK9 set in motion the pursuit of the ultimate front-engine, front wheel drive performance hatchback. EP3 (2001 – 2005) A European take on the Type R As a result of the overwhelming success of the first-generation car, the second-generation was offered across Europe; thanks, in part, to now being manufactured in the United Kingdom. The new car introduced an all-new, and now iconic 2.0-liter DOHC i-VTEC ‘K’ series engine that redefined what a normally aspirated two-litre engine could do. It too featured uprated brakes, a precise, close-ratio six-speed transmission and a shell that made extensive use of high-tensile steel to increase torsional static rigidity by 80% over the EK9. Toe-control link strut suspension in the front and reactive-link double-wishbone suspension at the rear combined with new electric power steering (EPS) and variable gear ratio (VGR) for highly rewarding steering feel and feedback. FN2/ FD2 (2007-2011) Type R – two ways The third generation Civic Type R was unique in that the European and Japanese models differed dramatically. Europe received the FN2-based hatchback, which retained the proven 2.0-liter engine, but introduced a new chassis that moved the fuel tank beneath the front seats to improve interior space and flexibility. Japanese customers were instead offered the FD2 saloon, which offered an even more focused driving experience thanks to additional items such as a more powerful K20A engine, a helical LSD and powerful Brembo brakes. The saloon’s increased weight was countered by extensive use of structural adhesives instead of welding, and aluminium in both the chassis and panels. FK2 (2015-2017) Introducing the VTEC TurboA As market and regulatory expectations shifted, the move toward turbocharging was inevitable. Honda engineers worked meticulously to develop the K20C1 turbocharged 2.0-liter engine that offered explosive performance thanks to a 310PS output. In order to better control that significant increase in power, Honda introduced its Dual Axis Strut Suspension paired with a limited-slip differential to counter the torque-steer encountered in high output front wheel drive cars. The 2015 Civic Type-R sprinted from 0-100km/h in just 5.7 seconds and came equipped with large diameter (351mm) front discs that formed part of the high-performance Brembo braking system. The FK2 proved a formidable base for a competition car, winning several TCR Touring Car titles across the globe. FK8 (2017-2022) The Ultimate Sports hatchback Arriving in 2017, the FK8 was the ultimate evolution of the Civic Type R. A significant evolution of the FK2, the new car gained a host of new mechanical features such as adaptive dampers, and further revisions to the K20C1 engine to boost power to 320PS. The model also introduced downforce to the equation for an even more intense drive; the external aerodynamic package worked in unison with an advanced, almost flat underfloor, to actively contribute to negative lift. The model also made its debut in the United States, with the region leading global sales for the car. FL5 (2022-) Ultimate Sports 2.0 Launching later this year, the all-new generation car further evolves, matures, and refines technologies that have been developed over several generations. Whilst new technologies and refined aerodynamics have helped set the bar higher once again, a clear lineage can be traced back to the FD2 generation with the incremental revisions resulting in the fastest, most rewarding and addictive Civic Type R ever built. Already the track record holder at Suzuka, the 2022 Civic Type R is a fitting way to celebrate 30 years of the Type R nameplate.

Hi....welcome to the Club Try these guys as they have some listed for your model https://www.iceboxauto.com/iba-honda-entertainment-systems#/specFilters=2!#-!468!-#!1!#-!21

I would definitely take it up with the dealer as this should not be occurring after just 1 week of not using it

It could be many things but generally this is not a common fault that I am aware of I would take it to a garage for a scan to see if there are any fault codes

Try hot (but not boiling) water in the bottle as this can tend to break up any sediment that has congealed in the pipes, pump, etc To clear the jets use electrical fuse wire in the nozzles

I assume you have checked the engine timing is correct and nothing has failed there Also the Crank Sensor would be the favourite for non-starting

I would imagine it would be in the region of 1 Bar and most Japanese pressure caps would be a similar fit Try your local motor factor once you have taken a measurement of the filler neck diameter and depth

That's good to hear its finally updated 🙂

Sorry to hear you've had such a bad experience but I do believe that most dealers most definitely do not have the customers' interests at heart. I would take it to a reputable independent garage in the future and stick with them Most jobs on the early Honda's were easy enough to carry out and with the correct maintenance can go on for decades without any issues

Hi Dave....welcome to the Club Glad you managed to fulfil your dream of owning a particular Honda model, seems so many people forget their dreams over time. Good to have you onboard!

Hi...welcome to the Club We'll try our best to answer any questions Good to have you onboard!

Try this company, they have a great range of steps https://direct4x4.co.uk/collections/side-steps

That sounds fair enough to me!

Hi Number 2 (I am not a number...sorry couldn't resist that one) good to have you onboard!

Hi Annabel.....welcome to the Club I think both of those issues are related to settings but it will take ages to suss out by reading the handbook 🙂

It could be one of two things 1. Worn release bearing running onto the cover plate (usually associated with someone resting their foot on the clutch pedal) 2. Worn and defective dual mass flywheel which should rattle heavily when the engine is switched off if its worn

It sounds very much like the variable vanes within the turbo are clogged with carbon It just needs running some cleaning agent through it to free up the vanes and that should sort the issue https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/152003334878?epid=1523879080&hash=item23641ad2de:g:lQ4AAOSwZ8ZW2O4l https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331754313002?hash=item4d3e19152a:g:h5EAAOSw4Ehag~qM

Good luck with it and hope it works as it should Always like to find a bargain and secondhand it fine for things like indicators and light units, maybe not steering, brakes or suspension though 🙂
