Please please please, get a remanned or new Denso. Do not buy anything else. You WILL regret it.
Unless you love electrical quirks and replacing alternators, get a Denso.
Other than the boring looks they are superb A to B cars. They even fixed the appalling ride of the gen8. I had a gen8 for years and this is an all round far better car. It does nothing amazing but everything fairly well or at least not bad.
I had this issue with my 2013 civic. Was replacing the battery about every 12-18 months. All the systems tested fine but the problem was fixed when I finally replaced the alternator.
Consider getting a good set of all-season tires. I have a 2wd Honda Civic that does great in snow because it has FWD and great tires. Michelin Cross-Climate are what I have and are one of the best.
I moved to Austria around 2 years ago, got a 2012 2.2 diesel civic with 144000 on the clock, now it sits at 187k.
If I could turn back the clock I would buy it again in a heartbeat.
It's ugly, not fun to drive but in 40k km I drove in the last 2 years i "invested" in winter tiers, abs sensor(50€) and regular oil changes (at 10k).
Haven't seen too many reviews on these new aftermarket fog lights since they recently just came out. But just thought l'd share how they look on my 2025 civic LX. Overall pretty easy to install I was able to get it installed without removing the front bumper.\n\nThe lights are really bright, in fact brighter than the oem headlights and have change amber color when using turn signal.
After bringing the knuckle back, we reinstalled the brake pads. We had a difficult time getting the pads to sit correctly, specifically with the anti-rattle clips (prongs). Eventually, they seemed to seat properly, and we reattached the pads and caliper.
head gasket issues I had with the 90 and 94 Civics
Head gasket blew at 70k to boot.
The carb was old and not good, caused it to stall out all the time. Cold starts were lol as well.
