I swapped to the ITS module months ago and I am very happy with that set up. I am sure the DSC module is good upgrade if you're tracking the car. One thing I will say is I have been riding my motorcycle pretty much all the time and not so much driving the CTR. With that said, I had to take...

Sux that you had to have a specialized shop fix the issue and it cost you $300. However, the dealer would've probably got it wrong and you would have had to go back a couple of times and then they would've messed up one of your rims. So in the end, you got a better outcome even though cost you...

Sorry to hear this story. Brutal experience. Fortunately, in the end the problems have been corrected so you can enjoy the car. Obviously, you have another problem as to where to take your car for future service.

Take it to a suspension shop and see if they can diagnose it. Then you can take it to the dealer and show them exactly what is wrong. A good suspension shop will be able to find the problem and will point it out to you while its on the lift so you can photo/video the issue for the dealer.

Definitely can hear it. How the dealer doesn't hear it is crazy. Sounds like the steering gear is skipping or slipping, but I think you would feel that in the steering wheel. Maybe a ball joint or tie rod or a suspension component. I get your frustration. Dealers are mainly only good at oil...

Go to your local Honda Parts dept and see if there's a replacement part that can be ordered. The pics look like the clear plastic cover is cracked and chipped. Crazy a foam cleaner, brush and microfiber towel did that. I wonder if it was cracked previously and you just noticing it now after...

That don't look right to me. I never look under my car so I don't know if mine has this as well. Nonetheless, I would send those pics to your dealer, then get them to put the car up on the lift and do a walk around with them. Doesn't look right.

I would say what's done is done. Drive the car and deal with any issues when/IF they even arise. My gut tells me any issues would have already presented themselves if in fact you experienced a true "money shift". My guess you over rev'd a bit and avoided anything serious by quickly...

I think you can hold down the power button to the radio for a certain amount of time and it will reboot the system. Maybe give that try. You can likely search youtube or google "reboot" Honda Civic entertainment system.

Shouldn't be an issue. The dealers have done this fix on so many Civics already. They did my worm gear fix and rotated the tires in like 45 minutes. The steering will probably feel noticeably lighter and "consistent" throughout end to end lock out. Also, "clicking" should be gone...

Mine has been problem-free since the recall. No "stickiness" and feels fine driving hard or slow.

You can search you vin on the internet or open your honda app to see if you're subject to a recall. Mine is a 2024 so older than yours. If you only hear it when the driver's window is open, I am wondering if its the "ticking" window molding on the driver's side. If its a rock stuck in the...

It could also be the worm wheel gear that was recalled. I had a slight clicking at slow speeds, like parking, that went away when I had the recall procedure completed on the worm gear. Also, there is a "ticking" noise on the driver's side when the car in direct sunlight. The tick under...

Well then, you're good to go! With the ITS module I can drive the car all day and really enjoy it. Spirited, but also much more compliant even in Sport Plus compared to the Type R module.

One thing I would suggest if you're going to daily drive the car that much is get the Acura Type S dampening module. I recently installed mine and for me transformed the driving experience. The module is about $200. Easy to do. There's a youtube video that guides you through the install...
