You bought an automatic in one of the few cars that can get a manual transmission. What year did you come out as gay?

@@sasquatchrosefarts don’t be disrespectful, just be respectful

I would say they are in a great spot when it comes to preventing theft and rust but if a mechanic or the owner were to be working on in the engine bay they may accidentally hit the o2 sensor wires but then again the chances of that are probably slim

@@TruckLifeProductions fuck the wires. The entire engine is full of wires... You just like to cry.

Def doesn’t look hard to simply disconnect the sensors if you wanted to work in that area but I don’t even see any reason to work in that area unless you’re replacing the radiator/ or the fan

@@TruckLifeProductions if you don't disconnect the sensor before working in that area and you broke it then it's just you being sloppy

This is true 🤦🏻‍♂️

I just got my sport. There’s really nothing that I hate. Most of what he mentioned is kinda annoying tho

If y’all hate this much stuff get a Kia rio or Hyundai accent

If you go out of your way to make this kind of comment, you have probably the saddest life

love my 23 civic sport!a lot of this was just him knick picking over the car it never gave he disliked it☠️

Thanks for the comment and yes the new placement of the catalytic converter is definitely a benefit for the manufacture as well as the consumer, I feel that they could have done something better with the wire placement. I definitely agree that n/a cars will last longer than turbocharged cars and thanks for the insight on the accord engine

Yeah them 2.0t accord are fast af, they can keep up with a 4 cyl mustang

Exactly, it has less strain on the engine and tranny,thats why personally i dont like turbo engines

A V6 or V8 will outlast any 4 banger. Automatic transmission will outlast any CVT. A manual transmission is more fun to drive, even though the clutch may have to be replaced if you are a bad driver.

@@richscott2483That’s not necessarily true, a V8 or V6 nowadays most likely really won’t last any longer than an i4. Most people driving v6’s thrash the shit out of them and destroy them. It’s also all about who builds the engine. A Honda Four Banger will outlive any Chevy V8.

Absolutely and thanks for commenting, I honestly really like the car and don’t have anything bad to say about it so far. I just made the video because I knew viewers would be interested to see videos like this. As far as the converter it is better to have it in the engine compartment to prevent it from being stolen just having the wire on the o2 sensor exposed like that seems to be a poor design and the start/stop feature is the only thing that really bothers me, I’d prefer to have the car running at all stop lights, drive thru’s, etc. Again thanks for the comment and I’m glad you enjoyed the video

here in mexico they stealing catalytic convertors left and right!!! i want this civic so bad! with the HPD package

You'll hate it when you find out you have to replace those turbos $$$ and all turbo lines before it hits 100k miles.....those turbos spool up to 100k rpm and blazing hot. When you shut off the engine suddenly and constantly you're turbos stop getting any cooling and the oil cakes on the tiny lines. Thats why racers with turbos install turbo timers just for that reason....not to mention the shortening the engine life.... which defeats the reason so many people buy hondas.

@@Truehoon this one didn't have the turbo

Crappy front seats, no heated seat in the Si, bad road and wind noise, CVT, mediocre lane keep assist and more road noise. Acura Integrea A spec here I come.

Thanks for watching and appreciate the feedback

can turn it off

I’ve never understood it either and honestly I feel that more people that buy these cars are more likely to disable it than actually use it

I couldn’t agree more and hopefully soon Honda will design a system to download into the cars software to accommodate that very thing, as a memory based option or even a permanently disabled option

You get used to it, on my Skoda when you stop if you push the pedal down hard the engine cuts off, if you press lightly it stays running, I only turn it off occasionally if Im feeling lazy or there's crawling traffic it can be annoying, or if it's really cold but then usually it won't stop anyway. Mostly I just leave it on.

@@timscott3027 Yeah, it's a good point that we can get used to this sort of thing. I suppose we human apes are resistant to change though. It will be interesting to see where the car manufacturers take this 👍

The auto start-stop is there to reduce emissions. It's been fitted to European spec cars for 7+ years now and no reliability issues as far as I'm aware. I like the silence at the traffic lights and find it very smooth (VW Golf).

@@stevef7139 no reliability issues is a plus but I would like to have a way to permanently disable it and I’m sure there are many others that would like to as well

Thanks!! 😂😂

The touring has the stronger engine, seems powerful enough.

I have the touring and I LOVVVVVVE IT.

is there no way to make it stay on? seems like it should be possible.

Is it a feature in 2020

How to disable

Dual clutch in a Honda would be amazing. It would be the Japanese Audi !

Yeah as time passes and newer models come out things change some for the better and some for the worse but each car has it own unique advantages. The 2022 civic sport hatch does come with dual center tips where as the 2022 civic si comes with 3 in the center and yes the fuel gauge could be placed elsewhere that would be nice

That is definitely a disappointment and yeah it would get aggravating having to push the button over and over

I don't know about Honda but my Mazda has a way not to activate the auto start stop by pressing the brake not all the way down but just enough to stop the car. If you press it a little bit harder, the auto start stop will engage.

@@paulcwyuen I believe it’s the same way on the Civic, I have noticed that it hasn’t cut off every time even when the mode was enabled

Starters systems on auto on/off nowadays are designed to last for many more cycles than normal ones. Wear and tear should not be something to worry about, but the gas savings and emissions are way better to keep in mind. Also, these are damn hondas, they last like forever.

It is deactivated in Sport mode. So you can drive around in sport. But you’d get a little worse MPGs.

That wouldn’t surprise me one bit and yep every time I get in the car that’s the first thing I do. Thanks for the insight and thanks for the comment!!

Your welcome and yeah the biggest problem for me is that start/stop feature.. and wow I didn’t know that, seems like you should be able to so for instants if it’s cold out side and you’re warming up the car you should be able to keep the doors locked so no one can get in and try to steal it or something of that nature

@@TruckLifeProductions yes exactly. My personal experience is when I just meed to step out briefly, like throwing out trash or buy a drink at like 711. I'd want to keep my car on but locked, so that the AC/heater stays on.

@@Ian-mv4qq gotcha yeah it would be helpful, I’m just so used to leaving it unlocked while running, which probably isn’t a good idea especially nowadays

You can if you turn the car off shut and lock the door and remote start. I know it’s a hastle to have to use remote start but u can

Before exiting the car while its still on, lower the driver side window completely, once you are outside of the car, reach in and press to lock button and then press the window roll up button, make sure you pull your arm out before it gets caught. to enter the vehicle, pull out the actual key from the keyfob and unlock your car the old fashion way by sticking it in the door handle and turning (new civic has the key sloth hidden inside the door handle). its a lot of steps but it works for me during the hot summer days!

That’s awesome and congrats on your new ride and thanks for the comment!!

@@TruckLifeProductions appreciate you replying. Get your windows tinted and get a black HFP lip spoiler for it, and she’ll be lookin real clean then! 😎 I got my windows tinted this week and plan to get the spoiler here soon. Just the tint made a big difference

@@dustinparker7868 Depending where you drive. Some cops like to make a fush about tinted window. It is the cop’s pull overs, wanted to check if your tint is legal or not. Just a nuisance

What is the difference between the EX and the Sport? Im thinking about getting the new civic ?

@@kyqorioskygo8999 My tint is 20% which is illegal, but I’ve had vehicles with 20% previously, and haven’t had issues where I’m at (Alabama). As far as the differences between the EX and the Sport, there’s a good bit of differences. I compared the EX and Sport when I was shopping and ultimately decided to go with the EX. The Sport comes with the 18” wheels, chrome exhaust, a few blacked out trim bits, and cloth seats specific to the Sport trim. You also get the standard 2.0L NA engine. The EX offers a few good upgrades over the Sport. You get blind spot monitoring (why I chose the EX), smaller 17” wheels, a sunroof, heated front seats, 60/40 fold down seats, and a rear armrest with cup holders. You also get the 1.5L turbo engine with the EX trim. That’s about all of the differences I can think of right off the top of my head. I know the EX trim gets the best fuel economy of the Civic sedan at 42 hwy and 33 city. Just beware that dealers are probably going to be marking these cars up above MSRP by several thousand dollars since the new Civics are in high demand. It is happening in my area. Let me know if you have any other questions! I’d be glad to answer them. I’ve had my Civic since August and love it!

Thanks for the suggestion!!

Where’s is engine temperature gauge?

Thanks for watching and I agree

I agree it’s a terrible place for the gauge

Absolutely!!

It’s supposed to work that way but people have said that they’ve had a problem with it not working properly before. You can also permanently disable it which is a huge plus

From what I understand it’s supposed to help save fuel and I guess that’s why they don’t because they run mostly off electric

Very easy to find cars without it lol, new cars

@@Yourmomshairyy well, name a few then, Elantra is the only one I can think of on top of my head.(although I believe the lowest trim level of Elantra still has it)

Just get it manual

Probably because the government made it mandatory and the had to obey their rules

Noted and thanks

@@TruckLifeProductions look up Team O'Neil channel for videos on setting up your driving position. I feel like it's the most important thing to set first in driving a new car. You might like their other videos too

Yes I would recommend it

Hate to hear that glad you didn’t get into one and that’s why I don’t like systems like that

Until your ac goes out.

Yes there is a button in the center to do it but it has to be pushed every time the car it’s started, never found an option for it in the dash cluster

It is definitely bigger than the 90s civics

It's not only bigger it's a much better vehicle than your '96.

For the amount I owned it I would say they were quiet but I’m used to driving pickups with bigger and louder tires so could be that I just didn’t notice as much

I’m not sure if the manual comes with the option or not, I’ll check and see next time I’m around a manual one. Awesome and it sure is an added benefit to the car, I would like to have the option when using brake hold to just be able to press the button to release the hold and not have to press the brake and button to do so. If that was the case I could build up the rpms and release it like a launch at the drag strip for better off the line acceleration, in other words it would act like a trans brake.

I believe it does come on the manual Civic. Not sure, haven't found one to test drive yet!

@@yitznewton I’m not sure either but that would be cool to find out

What’s the brake hold?

@@digitors brake hold is a mode, that engages the brakes for like red lights, fast food drive through. Brakes hold when stopped. Can remove feet off clutch and brake. Just have to hit clutch and accelerator and it disengages. Have to have engine on, and seatbelt on, hit the button and it stays active until engine is turned off. Under rated feature.

Better off with the SI in my opinion

That’s a big reason 😂

4 ft 5-1/2 😂

See!! I knew I wasn’t the only one lol. Thanks for the comment. This comment right here is for all those others that didn’t believe

Unless you don't like that driving position. Still the fuel gauge is small and difficult to see.

How do you like the Touring - I have one on order

It certainly is and the n/a 2.0 is a good engine

Thanks for the recommendation

Yup the touring model is sweet.

Yes I realized that after making the video. I have since lowered the steering wheel and can see the gauge just fine, but still would have liked the gauge to be in a different spot

How do you disable it? Honda says you can't.

Then get si turbo not the sport

I will check that out on the start/stop button, thanks for the heads up. The lane mitigation sensitivity can be adjusted in settings as well as it can be turned off, so that’s a plus

Thanks it’s a southern thing and I tried to give a first look at some of the things I really want fond of with the car
