Used Civic prices
Hi all, I'm new to this forum and am looking at an opportunity to buy a used 1999 Honda Civic EX couple (5 spd), just want to see how much in general these Civics are going for right now? The car has a little over 150k miles on it, seems to be well maintained and runs well. There have been some repairs done on the car (belts, battery, distributor replacement, and ... Read More

Civic Tranny noise?
I have a 1999 Honda Civic w/5 speed. The transmission seems to make a noise when in gear and at certain mph speeds. I checked the fluid level and added a little to top it off but it still makes the noise. Should I worry about the noise and is this something to worry about? Thanks! Jim

Re: 1999 Honda Civic 1.6L Left Front End noise [speed16]
I found the noise. No mechanical problems. A very small rock lodged itself between the muffler heat shield and pipe just under the car on the horizontal run under the engine.

Re: CNG cars? [freedml]
Our 1999 CNG-only Honda has lots of spunk around town. I believe, however, that it has the smaller engine available for the Civic, so is not great at altitude (5000', e.g.) or on steep hills, where is must shift down to "3rd" gear (it is an automatic) to maintain 60 MPH, especially with two folks aboard. It will maintain that (or higher speeds) in 3rd, but I feel like I'm running ... Read More

Why is pricing on new Civics varying so much?
From reading this forum, seems as if some buyers are (still) getting "invoice pricing" on new Civics while others are getting MSRP quotes. Is this a regional phenomenon? Or is it because some dealers have more coming in from the factory than others? Just curious. Also wonder what will occur once the special financing goes away after the 7th of July. Interestingly, I recall that starting in the 1999 model year ... Read More

Got the injectors cleaned up, re-installed them and the car fired right up. It seems to be operating properly now. FWIW, I am told that injector problems are quite common on the GX Civics.

If you observe misfires showing up on the diagnostic computer, you might want ... Read More

CNG Tank replacement
In theory, one should replace the tank every 15 years according to the owner's manual. The Honda price is about $5,000 for the part, alone. Having a 1999 Civic, I wonder whether there will be a supply of tanks from newer wrecked CNG Civics, and furthermore, will they fit. Has anybody had occasion to search for wrecked CNG Civics to get CNG-specific parts? Ate the tanks, so far, fully interchangeable?

1999 Honda Civic - 103K miles - Electrical Burning Smell, et al.
Hello Everyone, I was hoping someone might be able to help me diagnose this issue. '99 Civic EX, automatic transmission, 103K miles, all suggested maintenance current on vehicle including timing belt/water pump. Just yesterday, about 20 minutes in a drive, the car was in traffic with the interior fan on. An initial electrical burning smell started in the vent (initially dismissed as idling emissions from the car in front of me) ... Read More

Re: 2000 Civic Exhaust Manifold Crack [karma1]
I have a 1999 Civic SE. At about 110,000km (65,000 miles) I had my Civic in to the local Honda dealer for regular service. They notified me of a cracked manifold. They promply ordered in the parts and installed a new manifold (including new O2 sensor, etc) for no charge. They told me it was under Honda's 130 000 km emissions system warranty.

Re: Buzz [vtec2]
No pre-release buzz? What do you call this thread then? All the talk, speculation, and rumors. Honda knows this is going on You can bet that Honda reads these posts.

I will be commuting about 110 miles a day so the mileage will add up quick. Like another poster asked does anyone actually have a home phill unit? Did you install it yourself? What ... Read More

1999 Honda Civic cuts off
Hi, Hubby has a 1999 Honda Civic 84,000 miles. He's great with the regular upkeep & maintenance & we really have had no major problems until now. She starts right up but dies a block later. Starts right up again but, dies a few blocks later. This goes on for about 15 - 20 minutes of trying to drive. No warning that it's going to cut out, just does. Radio still ... Read More

With its tight but compliant ride, with controlled suspension moves and almost lean free corenering. ... Read More

Re: need advice or help!!! [dannyboy321]
If you are gonna do the engine swap most other engines that Honda put out in the Civic/Integra line will work because they use the same motor mount locations. Most go with a B16A that puts out 160 hp, (found in the Civic Si (1999-2000) or some Integras. If you want more then go for the B18C1 that was found in the later model Integra GS-R.

Re: 1999 civic sir hatchback for $6250 [john500]
6250 $Canadian = about 5150 $US 145,000 miles = under 90,000 miles as blueiedgod pointed out. Sounds suspiciously low in price. It might be worthwhile doing a compression test before purchase. Is this the same engine as in the 1999 Civic SI's sold in the US (160 hp)? I thought the Si-R models were exclusively sold in Europe and Japan (was it imported to Canada?). If it was imported, I ...

Re: Why no performance coupe? [bottgers]
I'm really pleased with the Civic overall, but I'm curious as to why Honda doesn't offer the 2 door coupe in a performance model? I don't care for the looks of the Si model, and there's really no reason Honda couldn't make a high performance version of the 2 door coupe. Could you imagine how much fun this car would be to drive with the RSX's 200 hp 2 liter engine? ... Read More

It is going to be a coupe again. :-( It should not be called Si. Si's always been a hatch except for the 99-2000 coupe. They should just call it an EX-S or something. They expect 200 hp at least just to stay on par with the new GTI and the Ion Redline/SRT-4. There is a lot more power in the hot hatch (hot compact maybe?) marketplace these days. Since the ...

One other concern - Insurance costs?
I am currently paying about $2,000 a year (comprehensive, Louisiana, >25 y/o male, perfect driving record) to insure a 2003 Honda Civic SI. This is about $500 per year higher than comparably priced 2003 vehicles. Can some other people list their insurance prices please? I don't believe that the theft rate and collision rate of the 2002-current Civic SI's are similar to the earlier model years (i.e. 1999-2000). Thus, a lower ... Read More

Idle Speed Deceleration
I recently bought a 1999 Honda Civic DX. It is a five speed manual, runs great on highway driving, but at lower speeds (1st or 2nd gear) when I take my foot off of the accelerator or just back off of it a little, the car decelerates quickly down to a really slow idle. What this causes is that when you accelerate again it kind of jumps or lurches forward on ... Read More

Congrats on graduating. I bought my first brand new car when I graduated in 1999, and it was a Honda civic. I don't know where you live, but $17K for DX is absurd. People pay $13K for LX. I paid $14,500 for brand new Si in early 2003. Were you looking at Civic's with HOnda Factory Perfomance Packages?

Re: 2000 Civic SI Mobil 1 0w-20? [vdharia]
Historically, Honda engines lived past 300,000 miles on just dyno oil. So, if cost is of concern then go with a cheaper option. If you are going to change your oil every 3750 miles, then go with regular quality dyno oil. I do Mobil 1 changes every 5000-6000 miles. Also, if cost is a concern, the DIY cost is only $30-$35, buy oil at walmart $28/case of 6 (you'll only need ... Read More

Re: Search to buying a Honda Civic [natashadt #1090]
What is "alacarte"? Sorry, the correct spelling is ala carte, or close to that. That is when you go to a restaurant and get items off a menu, rather than buying a whole dinner package. Honda offers package deals. If you want A/c, you have to get LX, although a dealer can install the optional A/c on the DX, but the price is $800-$1200, which is more than what you would ... Read More

You are right, the window in the wheel well is present on all Honda Civics post year 2000.

My old Toyota Celica doesn't have the window and so doesn't my friend's 1999 Honda Civic. The Honda Accords don't have the window either. Will have to keep an eye ... Read More
