2019 Si

I’ve loved this car from the moment I bought it, just turned over 67,000 miles. I annually have it serviced and have had no issues.

Lately when I first start driving it, it makes a low sound when I turn the steering wheel while starting to drive. Almost sounds like it’s low on power steering fluid. I actually purchased power steering fluid only to then realize it doesn’t require power steering fluid and can’t be added to the engine.

Anyone have any idea of what the issue could be. Once it gets past the initial noise you don’t hear it again. Seems to only happen on a cold engine.

Thanks in advance.

2014 Civic only starts with OBD scanner plugged in — need advice

Honda Civic. He had recently replaced the alternator, battery, and thermostat. The car eventually broke down, and now it will only start and run if an OBD2 scanner is plugged in.
An electrical mechanic checked the grounds but couldn’t find the exact issue. He thinks it could possibly be the PCM.
Has anyone dealt with something like this before? What should I check first before replacing the PCM? Any tips or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
The car runs fine while the scanner is plugged in, but shuts off when I unplug it.

Exhaust recommendations

Hi everyone,

I have bought a 2013 civic si coupe that is somewhat beat and with an aftermarket exhaust. I plan to fix it up or just a few issues to make it look better and maintenance related as well with due time. Currently it has the Invidia N1 catback exhaust and everything was fine the first month after buying it except now it rattles and everything looks relatively alright and installed decently, but I am tired of the noise as it is now my daily. I want something quieter/less drone as I drive lots of highway miles as well as some city driving. I plan to build the car to an OEM+ look but for the moment on this issue I’m debating on just getting the parts for the oem exhaust or getting the invidia Q300

Ik there are a few forums and/or posts abt this but I just wanted to know from people with the Q300 or feedback in general of what their experience is like and how much louder it is from stock as I did not get a chance to hear what stock sounds like sadly. Is it relatively quiet inside to have a normal conversation without drone being overbearing. Ik I should probably just go for oem exhaust if I don’t want any drone but ive heard that this is probably the quietest aftermarket exhaust that for the most part adds more of a deeper tone

(sorry for the ramble and thank you if you did end up reading all of this lol)

Bad transmission or Engine mount?

I have started to notice a slight vibration when I go from 1st to 2nd only under deceleration, in reverse and when I put it in park sometimes. I did some research and found out that engine mount on these goes bad after awhile but my cars only at 106k. Based off of this context and the video do you think it’s bad mounts or something else? I recently did a transmission fluid swap at Honda couple days ago and a full tune up on this 2013 Honda civic. Help me out here guys I’m lost. 😞

Not sure why this is happening but my AUX no longer works. It’s been like this for about a month now, and whenever I hit the AUX button it only says USB as if the AUX option no longer exists. Any thoughts/suggestions on what might be wrong and how to fix it? I’m losing my mind without music 😵‍💫

EDIT: smh i forgot to add the car info my bad yall. I have a 2012 Honda civic LX

Splash shield replacement?

Hello! My splashguard underneath the car needs replaced. It’s zip tied and has some sort of metal plate on it to keep it steady. It rattles at 35mph+ so I’d like to order a new one. It looks like it comes in two pieces so i’d need the front part. Just wanted to see if anyone had replaced this before as I can’t find where to get one.

Thanks!
