After doing a few these and about to do another today. The most helpful tip I can give you is to remove the passenger side tire and work from the outside. You can see much more and have far easier access to the starter bolts. Long extensions and universal sockets are you friend on this job. Removing the exhaust pipe and axle will add more work and time especially if an exhaust bolt breaks. Update: Completed in just under 2.5 hours.

That’s exactly how you do it. 👍

Thanks! Was confused about that top bolt. Other vid didn’t show it like you did

Two. Extremely helpful hints I just did this job number one remove the front exhaust bolts with the springs. This makes the pipe movable number two remove the drive axle. Once you do these things the job should take less than two hours.

Currently on day 2 just trying to get some additional pointers. Spent way too much time trying to unclip that top wire before realizing I should just removed the bolts first. Good video.

dont get me wrong, car has been solid for me 70k problem free besides the starter.....oh and my stock stereo system was intermittent and would glitch out at rain/cold etc so I ended up actually changing that with another stock units for the looks. That was a job but not that bad. Iv heard ppl with AC problems on the 06-11 civics but I never use mine so idk. Outside of that no oil consumption and the headliner sags but what can you do. @@kennylo2163
