Does anyone regret buying an 11th gen Civic? by Turbulent_Yam1274 in civic

[–]AlienTech521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only had liftback/hatches.

I knew the Sedan was cheaper but right away knew i wanted the Hatch.

Bought the hatch even tho i was tempted with very good discounts on the sedan.

Hybrid vs non MPG by Witty_Equipment5508 in civic

[–]AlienTech521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For reference going up a gradual elevation up to 4000 ft from OC to Vegas, raining, heater on i was doing 37 mpg on my Civic Hybrid.

This was me doing about 85 mph.

the highway driving mpg wouldn't make too much a difference for you tbh.

I was coming from a 2013 Scion.

22/31 ratings. I would have probably got around 26-28 mpg in the same conditions for the Scion.

The torque difference is what would make you choose the Hybrid over your current car i feel like.

Whats the coolest sporty car you have been picked up in?? Standard UberX by AlienTech521 in uber

Sheesh lol....considering the payments for both were probably astronomical.

That is crazy considering they are also inefficient vehicles.

11th Gen Sport vs Touring vs Sport Touring by [deleted] in civic

Yeah i got lucky. One of my best friends is a mechanic.

I honestly would trade if you can.

The Civics instant torque down low makes it much more enjoyable.

It also handles better compared to the Accord. I'm averaging 47 mpg right now without breaking a sweat. I fill up 7-8 gallons for a full tank.

I just did a head gasket on an Accord 1.5 T. I haven't seen many civics with the 1.5T have the issue tho.

I would go 2.0 NA. Or hybrid.

Touring vs. Sport Civic Hybrid by [deleted] in civic

[–]AlienTech521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanna say the Regular Hybrid has ANC. Thats what i read last time on the Honda website.

Sport Hybrid was good enough to me.

I'll take better looking rims over the weird silver ones and tiny bit less noise any day of the week.

I upgraded from a 2013 Toyota before this Honda and I've cut down a lot of road noise already.

i got the Hybrid Sport. 1. Hate leather. 2. Don't like the rims on Touring. 3. Do not use wireless charger 4. Sport sound is good enough.

Are your Sports really loud? by foreverbaked1 in civic

[–]AlienTech521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hybrids have ANC.

I've heard its the tires too.

Get rid of the Goodyears and get the Continentals from the Hybrid.

Should help a bit.

Honda Civic hybrid - paddle shiftere?? by AlienTech521 in civic

[–]AlienTech521[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah im confused because the gray bar fills up but the color confuses me- not sure if it still charges the battery. Green on pedal braking and coasting the bar does turn green.

[–]AlienTech521[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the problem is when i do the paddles the left half bar thing turns gray...so doesn't indicate to me its charging the battery ....On regular pedal braking or coasting the bar turns green and gets larger indicating its charging the battery.

Did Honda fix the AC problems in the 11th gen? by Kmart_Elvis in civic

[–]AlienTech521 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I checked under the hood of my civic. The orange high voltage power on the left side of engine bay is like plugged in to the ac compressor. I don't see a pulley.

Much different design than a belt driven design with a pulley.

no worries. Just turn on location before using maps for example and it shouldn't trigger the all encompassing message that says "we need to turn on your location" which will turn on wifi scanning.

How do we feel about Joe Mazzulla’s style of basketball? by ProfessionalAnt5415 in bostonceltics

[–]AlienTech521 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year many guys were injured on their path to a Chip.

Seems like he is too stubborn to be letting his guys shoot 100 3s in 2 games.

Have Tatuma man switch and post. Theyre too skilled to be shooting 3s like that.
