Got a 2013 petrol civic it's been absolutely superb great car to live with.

Hi Starvos, just to let you know there is an anchor point in that car for a spare wheel. The only problem is that the carpet is covering this. It is in the center of the boot under the carpet and there is a plastic cover pushed into the hole that secures the spare wheel. I know because i went on a mission to secure my spare wheel as i did not want it going anywhere in the event of an accident.

I have a Civic 2005 2.0 type s with factory satnav,radio screen which goes into battery saver mode after a few minutes if the engine is switched off, fantastic car, 160 bhp, half leather,cruise, very comfortable.

Yes the bread soda always worked for me, but definitely go back and get it professionally cleaned again

Ok, I'm getting a Civic if these are going to be the problems to be expected! 😀

Great result on the nct, just keep it away from the automatic car washes!

Excellent video. I'm getting the same problem with my infotainment display. Will now try disconnecting the battery.

Hi Stavros,had the same problem with milk spill,I got rid of it by mixing washing powder and hot water in a dish and scrubbing it with a scrubbing brush,then put a dehumidifier in the car over night, I then hoovered the seats next morn to get rid of powder bits.after that the seats where like new and no smell.

I see one major problem... it’s a diesel....

Thank you for bringing up the issue of the Odo and temperature not showing on the screen. I’ve been having the same problem and glad to come across a fix for it. 👍

Good lord the inspections are thorough across the pond! Here in the states you just have to make sure the check engine light isn't on. Some counties don't even require an inspection.

I have a late 2012 one of these 2.2 i dtec mines only £20 per year road tax why is yours so expensive.

I have had Honda civics since the 90s, not had a single issue with any cars that i have owed in all those years. The mk9 is the best civic Honda has built, I love mine. I had a 1.6 vti years ago, the best engine Honda ever made.

I had petrol leak on my back seats . White vinegar and baking soda. Still marked but the smell went after a couple of weeks.

Interesting video! Fun to watch something different! Didn't you like the Type R? I am thinking of having one myself

Great news Stavros! Keep the videos coming! Take care

Mine is shacking and you feel bumping on the right side I'm needing to get help

When you took the negative off for five minutes did you have the car running or off.

Keep them vlogs coming. Great content

Thnx for the fix ifo

I've had had 3 Honda Civics over the last 20 yrs and have only ever experienced one problem (with my current one) which was a battery fail (Varta) almost certainly caused by the so-called 'start stop technology' - now I always disable.

Hi, can you disable the start stop?

Yes the battery saving is true,Honda’s car will have the needle going around when you start up your car,and one day the needle stopped working,and after few days and few start up the car just died ran out of battery.(Honda Hrv )

Hi, I am planning on buying same car and I just have a question. Is it possible to fit a spoiler on it?

Hi Stavros, I have a 2013 Petrol Honda Civic which is a top of the range model and the factory infotainment system is different to yours. It has sat-nav and is located in the centre of the car (where the volume controls in your car are). I am too, having issues with my infotainment system. I turn on the car and the safety warning notice comes up and there's an OK icon at the bottom which the driver presses prior to driving off. My issue is that my car's infotainment screen is stuck on this warning so I can no longer access my sat-nav, but the reverse camera still works as does the audio. Do you know how to fix this or do you know of this problem? As for the smell in your car, if you can get your hands on some, try V.I.Poo. I know it's for your toilet but I find it works wonders on a lot of bad smells, including after my cat's used the litter box. Just one spray in the car and the smell will be gone in no time. It doesn't just mask the smell, it kills it!

No diesel engines here in Canada for Honda’s.

Hi Stavros969, have you had any problems with the DPF? Are you driving on long distances regularly or you do short distances more?

haha love it .....why does everyone phone der ma lol after the mot/ nct to say it failed when I didn't and their da when it actually is a failure lol...great Craic. ..Must be a Irish thing lol 😁 😂 🖒🖒 . Good luck 🍀 to u stavros me aul flower. 🖒

Wish you luck. the smell is so disgusting, I had same experience with milk smell... 3 times i washed the hole seat and carpet.. and using too much perfume to kill the smell.

hi, i've got the 1.8 petrol. Can you see mileage AND range on the same screen? greetings from Belgium

Mate you have rip out the seats and soak them and rinse like a sponge. Its only foam and fabric with bits of metal after all. Know what i mean. As for the carpet you can scrub and rinse but the padding under the carpet needs to be ripped out and chucked.

This is Great car. I have Honda Civic Tourer 1.6 Diesel... Exellent Car.

Hello. I just wanted to say thank you for this video, I had same problem with my Honda civic and it worked. Thanks and God bless you. Pls don't forget, Jesus loves you so much that's why He has to die for all the sin you have committed and if you believe in Him all your sins will be forgiven and you will be where Jesus is. Thanks once again, appreciate.

really enjoy your vlogs :-) you should def do more

Nice car mate. I’m extremely curious about why car tax are so expensive in Ireland. About the milk it happens to me in my VW golf and I end buying a use front 💺. Horrible smell especially in winter 😂

I am looking to buy the 9th Gen Civic. Is the 2.2 i-Dtec reliable? I hear mixed opinions. Some have used the previous i-CDTI and they have horror stories for those engines. Others comment how the i-Dtec is very reliable but tends to warm up very slowly. 1.6 i-Dtec doesn't have that problem is seems. Which is true?

My Honda is a petrol car, not a diesel. It runs beautifully!

i have 2016 1.6 idtech sport and its terrible, sport is a laugh its slow as a snail, ive a 12 year old diesel mini its twice as fast with 1.6 engine too, nothing but electrical problems, battery low, always, smart charging doesnt work, stopstart never works , thankfully to be honest, infotainment system is an absolute joke, too many problems to mention, low profile tyre make the ride terrible. really wish i hadnt bought it

Well done

Fairly sure a non working odometer isn’t an nct fail,I know someone who had a car with a faulty odometer and he got through 2 or 3 tests,the cert was marked 0miles of course but it still passed

@@sugarrfree well, the general consensus when talking to people was that diesel car engines are alot more expensive and build stronger(they have to be) and last longer - which was true for older cars, but i dunno if you can say that about modern ones aswell, with DPF and turbochargers etc. i personally like the driveability of the diesel and the fuel economy with the 1.6dtec is phenomenal(3,5 to 5 L/100km) - though it's not worth it when you drive alot of short distances.
