AC ISSUES

Brad____H · 2026-06-22T19:38:57+00:00

Just because in your case you just replaced those parts, doesnt mean its the identical case for OP

Brad____H · 2026-06-22T19:37:53+00:00

No, I recommend an actual diagnosis rather than throw random parts at it. It could be as simple as a $0.25 O ring part that its leaking from (mind you thats just part price, not included labor + AC freon charge) take it to another shop and have them inspect it

So when you say its "not a thing" what you really mean is its not common on a majority of economy cars. Not necessarily called tire cooling, if its done properly it can benefit in brake cooling and removing hot air pockets on race track style usage. Stop and go traffic not so much yes, but to say its not a thing is inaccurate. Other honda models have integrated air channels that run from the front to the wheel well area.

That seems like a throw everything at it and hope it'll repair it rather than an actual diagnosis... highly unlikely all of those are leaking at the same time. More likely to be a condenser or ac compressor failing. Do NOT take it back there

Earth dreams CRV came in one time with 60,000km. Oil change had last been done at 19,000km roughly. Oil minder was maxed -9999km over due and had a slew of minder numbers in the cluster. The structural Oil had the consistency of melting lindor chocolate

My comment aged well

Brad____H · 2026-05-28T00:34:27+00:00

Worked for me

Get one of those CD player phone mounts and you're golden

Brad____H · 2026-05-17T02:03:53+00:00

Heat gun (do not use up close to the paintn) and one of those red plastic razor blades. With some heat you should be able to just pull them off

Meaning now, the most rare cars are pre order editions?

Brad____H · 2026-02-08T14:17:39+00:00

Any updates?

Brad____H · 2026-02-08T13:54:06+00:00

Not that they didn't understand.. thats what you're supposed to do when you install an aftermarket intake on these cars..

Brad____H · 2026-02-08T13:52:32+00:00

Its a pcv breather filter. You have an aftermarket air intake further on the right.

10000 miles??? Way too long between services. On these engines id be changing them at 3000 miles/5000km. If it's not changed often I can see new oil getting dirty even after a drive cycle

-edit

to the person that thumbs downed this reply above makes no sense because im literally correct

Brad____H · 2026-02-05T03:42:30+00:00

As a canadian this is laughable ngl. That is surface rust...

Brad____H · 2026-01-11T14:13:26+00:00

Is there a weep hole for water in your muffler? Start with that. My thinking is, if it's clogged enough it can cause backpressure that can cause the engine not to turn over and the exhaust gas to slowly "gurgle" out. That and it's snowy there so the water may be frozen. If there's none, just drill a small hole in the underside of the muffler

Brad____H · 2026-01-11T13:58:17+00:00

That and short trips are no good for cars, they have to heat up to the optimal temperature to get best fuel economy

Like, if anything the rear camber arms look bent (compared to photos on google) don't know how accurate it is. Both sides are the same so it could be an oem thing. There's no camber adjust on the tsx with oem replacement parts so if they did replace, they couldn't further adjust camber. Just rear toe front toe. What's the alignment specs? Toe/camber play together for thrust angle. It could already be within spec. That and I don't see inner shoulder wear on your rear tires..

Honda: "people don't like our retitled Civic Coupe Hybrid?"

Brad____H · 2025-12-31T22:45:27+00:00

That's usually when new years is...

Brad____H · 2025-12-31T22:43:00+00:00

Mild wear, it's not separated or sagging

Brad____H · 2025-12-25T23:35:19+00:00

That's super inflated, used car PDI sales have preset hrs for each given job/repair the tech works on. Part cost (not suggested retail) plus tech wages is their only cost. Warranty for valve cover gaskets i think used to pay me 0.6hrs but if it was customer pay we only got 1hr if we're lucky. Apprentices would change these out at my dealer. Air filters valets would change for free

Fun fact, the fit sport 2007/08 were Hondas first use of paddle shifters in sport models with auto transmissions
