I just bought a 2025 Civic Si, and the guy who handled my paperwork assured me to only do things according to the car's computers, and when I change the oil at like 40-50%, then I'm not letting the oil do its thing as it's supposed to, and I should be doing it once it shows up.
I don't know if...
Thanks! I am the original owner of the Civic, and as far as I know I bought the KTuner straight from your factory.
If it's that costly, I'll have to consider whether I'll do it or not. Hopefully I can sit on that for a while and not go straight to needing to get it unlocked.
Ah, thanks. I can't remember how my purchase of the KTuner at the time affected this, because I bought one for my 2019 Si. I'm guessing mine is locked for that, or whatever? Like, I'd need to buy a new one?
I don't honestly know right now, but everything is pretty middle ground if not slightly edged toward "wider."
You see what happens when I let it center itself, though. It snaps onto that one portion.
The problem with adjusting the gate spacing and such-and-such now means I'd have to rip apart...
I screwed on the original knob last week just to see the difference between weights, and sadly the sound was still there.
The knob height is like on 3 right now. I might set it lower later.
It's not large, I can guarantee you that. Seems like it shouldn't actually affect anything, but of course I did not engineer the shifter.
Once you see the photo, you'll understand better.
That's the thing though, it's not the slamming that's causing it. It's the natural re-centering. So unless you are applying force to resist its centering tension, the sound should be occurring.
I'll have to ask permission from the person who has tried this already or he can send them to you, but he sent me a picture of basically a black rubbery item that fits around the spring's end so that it slaps on there with more of a thud/thwack than a clang. There is still a sound, but it seems...
Besides improving my actual shifting maneuver (though I'm too consciously aware of that), per another user I am going to try some silicone vacuum hosing to see if it'll muddle the sound some.
I'm not yet sure if I actually need it to be quieter or if I just need it to not be as high of a...
Feel free to close this thread if it holds no merit.
My mom is purchasing an EX and I inquired about when the next generation Honda lineup is arriving. He said likely in a couple of years, but when the Type R is up he said he heard they are phasing that out and bringing back the S2000.
Anyone...
So my newest video is going to explain my current developments. Surely everyone can hear the sound now that I have it open and I explain what's causing it (and maybe if you go back to my other videos you'll be able to isolate exactly what to listen for), but I want to know why nobody else can...
So, this may be an issue for me. I have a torque wrench that simply wasn't clicking for me when I set and used it. I think it caused me to overtighten some of my stuff. That means I may have to redo the process, but I don't know why it wasn't clicking at the proper setting.
I think I'm way...
The sound may be a click and not an actual squeak, but it is more like a slam, is very high-pitched, and I don't hear it in any other videos that have this shifter. I'm about to road-trip with my mom, and unless I'm diligent about that gear shift, I know once she hears it twice she'll ask...
Okay, here is another video. I'm playing it through my headphones and can hear it plain as day. If you want a reference as to when the sound occurs or when I shift into third gear, I think the waveform of my video file should give you a good reference (this is completely unaltered):
(I think...
Okay, with some excessive force I was able to get it fitting and click. It works again! Thanks!
The last thing to resolve is the squeal sound. I’ll record again later today from a camera better than the iPhone one lol, and see if it picks it up. Though I understand to diagnose it properly I’ll...
