  1. Missouri [Sold] 2023 Honda Civic Type R - Boost Blue -16,xxx miles

    Traded it in to the dealership that I was buying my new car from for 40k. Two BMW dealerships both offered me 34.8k and 37k. The Honda dealership went up to 40k after initially offering 37k.
  2. Missouri [Sold] 2023 Honda Civic Type R - Boost Blue -16,xxx miles

    Rides pretty much identical to stock. One of the reason's I went with Spoon was it's a pretty conservative "drop". It lowers the car maybe an inch or 3/4 of an inch? To be honest about the Rigid Collars, I haven't really taken advantage of them. I haven't autocrossed the car or taken it to...
  3. Missouri [Sold] 2023 Honda Civic Type R - Boost Blue -16,xxx miles

    The first pictures were ones taken yesterday. The car is filthy. The ones below are when it's clean but are a few months old. Not like anything has changed though. I'll get current photos with a clean car as soon as the weather permits.
  4. Missouri [Sold] 2023 Honda Civic Type R - Boost Blue -16,xxx miles

    2023 Honda Civic Type R #2479 VIN: JHMFL5G48PX000786 There is an accident on the Carfax. I was at a red light and an Escalade tapped into my rear bumper causing about a mango sized dent in the rear bumper, cracking a taillight, and some scratches on the tailgate. The repairs were done...
  5. Worm Gear Recall Fix Reviews

    Well that sucks. I'd talk to the manager and see if they can replace it if you can't get it back to normal. As for the smell, the odor is still there after I drive it around for a bit but it's much weaker than it was the day of. I have a little endoscope camera and I used it in my engine bay...
  6. FL5 recall (2022-2025 Civic Steering Gearbox Assembly)

    I didn't notice it until I went back into the garage an hour or two after I got home. I put my nose near the wheel well and it was definitely coming from under the engine which makes sense. I'm probably just being paranoid for no reason and it's what you said. I watched the procedure on...
  7. Worm Gear Recall Fix Reviews

    I just got the recall done today. I don't know if I ever felt "sticky steering" before but I did feel like I was hearing a slight dry metal on dry metal feeling when I would crank the wheel far to the left or right. Now I don't hear it anymore. But one thing I am noticing and am not sure if...
  8. FL5 recall (2022-2025 Civic Steering Gearbox Assembly)

    For those of you that had this recall done, was there a smell afterwards? I just got my recall done today and parked it in the garage. I went back in the garage a few hours later and I smell a strong glue/gas kind of smell. I'm assuming it was extra grease or something burning off? I'm...
  9. FL5 recall (2022-2025 Civic Steering Gearbox Assembly)

    I already have Spoon rigid collars installed. In the event I get this recall done and they drop my subframe, I would hope they know how to put the collars back in properly...
  10. Need minor bumper repair--is the "post-repair scan" needed?

    I highly doubt you need it. I've had my front bumper off to install the intercooler without one. I was also rear-ended at a stop light where the other person was in an Escalade. They hit me at like 4-5mph, not enough to deploy the airbags. The body shop did the scan but I drove the car about...
  11. Interior noises - rattles, creaks, squeaks!

    I'm scared to take these off since there's airbags under there. Are they simple to take on/off? Also, where did you get the Tesa tape? I saw the tesa® 60606 PV1 product on their site but can't find it anywhere online.
  12. Hondata releases CANFlex for FL5 Civic Type R

    If I'm reading this right, I can add this even if I have a 93 octane custom tune? The ECU will adjust and won't need a revised tune? I've never used flex fuel before. Would I just fill up half my tank with 93 and the other with E85? Or do I need to somehow precisely mix it?
  13. Aeroflow dynamics carbon front lip

    Sounds like an installation issue. Did you use bolts or the screws? I didn't feel comfortable using the screws so I used bolts where I could. I've never had a problem with it becoming loose or falling off. But, and this is a big but, any lip you put on your car is more than likely going to...
  14. OEM Oil Filter and Oil Drain Plug Crush Washer Part Number

    Sorry for bumping this old thread but does anyone have a part number for the oil drain bolt? Is it 90009-R70-A00?
  15. Is there any product that protects the drivers left side bolster?

    Let us know how it works. I'd be interested if it ends working out.
  16. Gear shift knob cover to beat the heat

    I keep a microfiber towel tucked in between the center console and the passenger seat. Useful for many things, one being either putting over the knob when you park it outside or acting as an oven mitt if you forgot to cover it.
  17. PPF Expectations

    The problem with getting a refund is that you now have to take it to another installer who is going to charge you extra to remove the old PPF so you're still going to be out-of-pocket more money. I'd be good with a redo assuming they get it right.
  18. Interior noises - rattles, creaks, squeaks!

    I have a couple rattles. One seems to be from the center, center-passenger part of the dash. It usually stops when I put pressure on the underside near the glovebox. The second is somewhere in the rear part of the car and is very noticeable when I decelerate. No idea how I'm going to source...
  19. PPF Expectations

    My car wasn't perfect. Perfect = Status Detail (look them up) where you cannot even tell the car is PPF'd. My installer definitely didn't tuck the PPF and if you look very closely you can tell. With that being said, no I did not have any sort of specs of debris or dirt under the PPF. That...
