In Europe, the Honda Civic eighth generation debuted in the fall of 2005, and Russian sales started in early 2006. The demand for the model influenced not only bold design, but also powerful motors, excellent challenges And congenital reliability. No wonder potential customers were recorded in line, the expectation of which was stretched up to the year. They were not embarrassed by the fact that the bast per was presented only in two bodies: sedan and hatchback. And three-year sold from us only in the charged version of Type R. Both body versions differ in external and internal design and even by the design of the chassis. In addition, the American market was sold to Civic local production in the form of a coupe and a sedan, which again appeared slightly different from his European fellow.

Despite the satellite design of the hatchback, the sought-after in Russia was sedan. In the initial fulfillment of Comfort, he had four airbags, air conditioning, ABS, CD receiver and full electric circuit. For "Avtomat" it was necessary to pay extra. And the rich EXECUTIVE package meant six airbags, climate and cruise control, stabilization system, CD changer and alloy wheels. The list of options listed leather interior, a roof with a panoramic view, xenon headlights, parking sensors, rain and light sensors, navigation system ...

It is even richer equipped with a hatchback: six airbags, a stabilization system, climate control, heated mirrors and front seats, light and rain sensors, CD / MP3-radio magnetol, alloy wheels and fog lights. Executive equipment went with a glass roof, leather cabin, parking sensors and xenon headlights.

Engine

For Honda Civic was offered three petrol aggregate 1.4 L (83 hp), 1.8 liters (140 hp) and 2.0 l (200 hp), as well as 2.2-liter turbodiesel. In Europe, a hybrid civic was sold with a 1.3 liter engine and an electric motor (20 hp). We had only gasoline versions in the course: sedans and hatchbacks with the "four" 1.8 L (140 hp), and the three-year Type R with 2 l (200 hp). The most massive 1.8-liter unit has a constructive feature: a catalyst combined with an exhaust manifold is practically integrated into the head of the cylinder block. And therefore the motor turned out unnecessarily thermally loaded. This should be remembered and follow the health of the cooling system. For example, clogging of the radiator or the failure of the thermostat can lead to blocking of the head head. Repair - from 15,000 rubles. The overheating is also a malfunction of the fan power sensor, which is located in the lower radiator tank. Get ready for the fact that the radiator itself (12,500 rubles) comes out of road reagents after several winters.

On machines with a mileage of 150 thousand km, the seals of the crankshaft and distributional shafts, moreover, the inlet valve shaft. The item is worth a penny, and work - from 1500 rubles. If you stopped twist the starter, do not rush to spread 7000 rubles. For a new item - usually it is enough to replace the retractor relay.

The engine is 1.8 liters with chain drive drive and the I-VTEC valve lifting system there is one constructive feature - Low idle speed, only 650 rpm. Therefore, at idle it works with noticeable vibrations. In preventive purposes, it is recommended to wash the injection nozzles (2500 rubles) every 30 thousand km of mileage. A manual box on Civic can easily survive the engine itself. The pledge of its longevity is the replacement of oil (2300 rubles) after 60 thousand km of mileage. "Robot", built on the basis of "mechanics", such a vitality to boast cannot - Periodically, Handrees Mechatronics.

Transmission

With a base engine of 1.4 liters, a mechanical 5-speed box was combined (from 2008 - 6-speed), and with the other engines - 6-speed "mechanics" or its robotic version, as well as a variator. For Russian versions of Civic, the alignment was somewhat different. The hatchbacks were equipped with 6-speed boxes: mechanical and robotic. In the sedans in the database, a manual "six-step" and a 5-speed hydromechanical "Avtomat", which from 2010 was installed on the hatchbacks.

The mechanical box and "automatic" are traditionally durable. But the robotic "mechanics" is an amateur who preferring a measured ride. But there are few people among the Sivikovodes. In addition, the "robot" delivers a lot of problems. For example, if the electronics does not recognize neutral transmissionMotor may not start at all. In this case, it follows several times to "go" on the gears of the box, and it can "draw up". Due to the incorrect operation of the box overheats the grip, which lives on average 50-80 thousand km. Besides periodically required to reflash the electronic unit Control box. On slang servicemen, this is called learning or clutch gripping point.

The clutch is usually 120 thousand km and changes assembled with released Bearing, basket and disk. There are no external shrus (5,000 rubles), which change to 50 thousand kilometers. Therefore, on each, it is necessary to check the condition of their anthers.

Chassis and body

Depending on the body of the Honda Civic, the suspension design is also different. It has a completely independent sedan, and the hatchback has a twisted H-shaped beam. Chassis Very strong. Among the weaknesses, the support bearings of the front racks can be distinguished (1,700 rubles), which changed 30 thousand km warranty. By this time, shock absorbers flowed on the early cars (3700 rubles). But ball supports They are considered almost eternal, and the racks and bushings of the stabilizer (1500 rubles per side) live to 100 thousand km. In the rear suspension turned out to be weak springs, due to which the machine with full load sang. Shock absorbers pierced 50 thousand km. Since 2010, this problem has been solved.

In the suspension with McPherson racks, perhaps, only one weak place is the support bearings of these very racks. If you felt a creaking spring sound when you turn the steering wheel, prepare 5000 rubles. on their replacement.

In the steering direction, the rail grieves the knocks to 50-70 thousand km. The officials sentenced it to the warranty. And today B. specialized Services limited to the replacement of the worn plastic sleeve on its shaft. Steering tips (1850 rubles) are cleared to 80 thousand km.

On the sedans rust rear wings in the area of \u200b\u200bthe wheeled arches and the door frames. Painting one body element - from 7500 rubles. Often, the driver's door glass seals were dropped out of their seals due to the skew of the guide windows. And the electrician fails in the electrician (2800 rubles). The regular battery with a capacity of 45 A. h serves three years.

Modifications

The charged version of Civic Type R appeared in Russia at the very end of 2007. The car, produced solely in a three-door body, surprised the non-standard approach to the design. On the one hand, he has a super-modern atmospheric twist (maximum speed reaches 7800 rpm) 2 l engine and power 201 hp This is more than a hundred forces per liter of working volume. And on the other, in the rear suspension the usual twisted semi-dependent beam. Nonsense for the "hot" hatchback. True, Japanese engineers assure that they configured a semi-dependent suspension no worse than the former multi-type.

Five-door hatchback repeats three terminal overall dimensions and the length of the wheelbase, which compared to the sedan is less than 50 mm. But the interior of hatchbacks looks more futuristic, and the controls are arranged unmistakably. Only to the left from the steering wheel, the engine start button must be used to get used. Interestingly, the rear wiper for hatchbacks is not provided at all, and in the back of the cabin there is no floor tunnel.

Restyling

In the fall of 2008, Civic was upgraded. And the restyled cars in Russia fell early next year. Sedanov changed the form front bumper, and fog lights instead of rectangular steel round. The new radiator grille added a solidity machine. These few innovations attached the appearance of the sedan to the tolik of expressiveness and respectability. But the hatchbacks in front changed only the facing of the radiator, but Civic looks different. True, there is an opinion that the "nostrils" appeared broke the harmony of the former version.

For a long time, a brighter and colorful car did not bring in Russia - the rapid streamlined silhouette, the "mirror" strip of the front optics, short sinks behind and in front ... The Honda Civic car causes associations with a space fighter from "Star Wars". Usually, at the end of the automotive exhibitions, the bright concept of fading "under the influence of marketing realities", but with the 5-door Honda Civic did not happen.

The car is rich in many such little things that attract the glance and create a mood. For example, triangular silencer holes and similar shape fog lights, and the back door handles are embedded, as in Alfa Romeo 156, the front is made in the form of ahead of the arrows. Honda Civic gas tank cover (it's a pity that it is plastic) decorated for sports. On the back door, again in the sports style, there is an anti-cycle, which improves high speed stability, but a worsening overview. Maybe it's with a hint that the driver of futuristic Honda Civic is no reason to look back.

But surprise is able to call not only exterior appearance Honda Civic hatchback, if you look inside ... delight will be no less. In the hands of the driver, it is convenient for a 3-spoke steering wheel, which has a "right" size, thickens in the zones of grip and, again, the original design. The left of it is located the engine start button and the stove deflector. On the right (symmetrically left tools) placed temperature control and intensity controls. The tachometer is located directly in the center of the dashboard, and on its sides there are indicators of the level of gasoline and the temperature of the coolant. The speed is reflected in the Speedometer LCD panel, just above the tachometer.

Front, in Honda Civic, the bucket seats are installed with excellent side support and an anatomical profile. For the feet of the driver and the front passenger there is a mass of free space. No less spacious and rear. This is amazing, but Honda Civic is one of the leaders in the classroom at the trunk capacity - as much as 415 l!

Move the engine key is not interesting ... And in Honda Civic is also impossible. To do this, the "Start Engine" button is provided in the car. The key is only needed in order to turn on the ignition. After that, click the button.

With sound insulation at Honda Civic in moderation - pleasant notes 1.8-liter Hondovsky motor are heard, but not immediately calm down, so as not to disturb those who are waiting for the comfort of comfort and silence. A 140-strong engine Honda. Civic - RED, traditionally, turn around, rumored and pleasantly excites the vestibular apparatus.
The mechanical 6-speed box allows you to accelerate up to one hundred per half with faster than with its robotic option. There will be no automatic box in Honda Civic hatchbacks, but in the convenience of the "robot" in what he is inferior to him.

The Honda Civic wagon-poured steering wheel, sharply transmitting teams wheels, causes instant addiction - this is true driving pleasure. Direct segments of the road want to avoid, and the eyes involuntarily open turns and goals for overtaking and rebuildings. Low ground clearance, a fairly rigid suspension, 17-inch wheels with low-profile tires are associated with a single almost racing tool that can satisfy a lot of driver ambitions. Honda Civic is an extremely acute car in control, devoid of rolls in turns, challenge next in a given direction. For these advantages, it is necessary to pay the lack of comfort on a broken road, and so, unfortunately, in Russia there is still plenty.

Two pairs of disc brakes Honda Civic are extremely effective, and the participation of electronic auxiliary systems occurs, as if they are not, and you will cope with the situation. Fully self-confident drivers will delight the opportunity to completely switch Honda Civic under its control: the VSA coursework system is completely turned off with one touch of the button.

Honda Civic 5D is good in almost everything - appearance, the possibility of aggressive driving at the highest level ... Effective and effective. And people are ordered mainly sedan. Why?
Well, the first is a serious reason is the price. The starting price of the Honda Civic hatchback at $ 5,000 higher than behind the sedan. Not everyone is ready to pay this money, mostly for appearance and pronounced sports style.
The second reason is character. The fact is that tougher settings, rear twisted beam, smaller clearance and low-profile tires, negatively affecting comfort. It would seem why comfort is the same sports civic? But in the sedan, the acuity of control is preserved with a decent level of comfort.

Prices for Honda Civic hatchback in 2008:

Five-door Honda Civic C 1.8 liter motor has a price from $ 24,900. The basic package includes a 6-speed manual box, 6 airbags, ABS with EBD, course stability, alarm, climate control, cruise control, electric power steering, rain sensor, headlight washers, on-board computer, Audio system with CD / MP3 / WMA receivers and 6 speakers. For a robotic box, you need to pay ~ $ 1000, and for glass roof - plus another ~ $ 1400.

The design of the compact Honda is not very shocking, and even pleases the eye. But until certain time everything was different. The predecessor - Civic VII (2001-2006) fell under criticism of criticism even from the side of the constant fans of the Japanese automotive industry. The company decided to correct the error. In 2005, in Geneva, she presented a prototype Civic eighth generation. The car body was outlined by bold lines. Many doubted that the futuristic type of prototype is unchanged to the conveyor. Nevertheless, Honda kept promise. In 2006, she proposed a car, which in Europe immediately received the nickname UFO (UFO).

A less extravagant sedan was prepared for the conservative part of the clientele. a few months later the lineup The three-door Civic Type S has been replenished with a more rigid suspension and an enlarged rinse of the rear wheels. In 2007, 201-strong Civic Type R with hard suspension, developed support seats and a high-breed engine is the perfect choice for motor rates. They especially should like the limited version of "ChampionShip White" with a mechanical blocking of differential.

Stylistic scope was not limited to the body. Fantasy designers touched the interior. A large amount of bold lines is present on the front panel and the center console. Futuristic Honda Civic is different from classic small males. However, not everything is perfect. Plastic elements of the interior decoration will creak on irregularities, and there are few rear windows, which can be seen, especially in the rain (due to the missing wiper).

The driver needs some time to get used to the specific workplace. To start the engine, not only rotate the key in the ignition lock, but also press the start button - an extra set of operations. Fortunately, this is one of the few shortcomings of the eighth Civic.

In 2009, the Civic was restyled. The most significant changes have undergone the front part. Instead of a transparent plastic strip on a radiator grid, a facing with additional air intakes were installed. Taking this opportunity, Honda improved the build quality and expanded the list of equipment. Another modernization occurred at the turn of 2010 and 2011. Again the changes affected the radiator grille and the wheels.

Constructive features

The team worked on the chassis of Honda Civic 8 has made every effort so that the driver gets joy from driving. Steering Accurate and responsive, and tight suspension allows you to actively pass turns. Preferring comfort, it is better to use 16-inch wheels. Larger wheels increase the number of shocks penetrating the cabin.

When designing Honda Honda decided to abandon independent rear suspension in favor of the torsion beam. A simpler design less efficiently absorbs irregularities and is less suitable for movement at the clutch limit with the road. However, such a scheme is more reliable and durable, cheaper in operation and helps to free up additional space for the trunk. 456 liters with the ability to increase to 1352 liters - the result is not expressable for most of the last compact.

This is not all Sivik's trumps. The Magic Seats system expands the practical cabin opportunities. Backseat You can lift in a vertical position. As a result, an additional space is formed in which high items can be transported, such as bicycles or plant seedlings to the country.

In an effort to increase the functionality of the car, the designers were forced to put the fuel tank under the front seat. It inevitably led to an increase in landing height. Saves a large range of position adjustments. Armchairs and steering wheel.

Honda. Civic VIII. It has a completely spacious salon. Between the axes of 2.7 meters - so that the place for the legs is generally enough. It is worse things with a margin of space above the head. On the second row, high will not be comfortable.

Engines

The engine line is modest, but at the same time allows you to choose an optimal version for yourself. Gasoline - 1.4 I-DSI (83 and 99 hp), 1.8 i-Vtec (140 hp), 2.0 i-VTEC (201 hp). Turbodiesel one - 2.2 I-CDTI (140 hp). The hybrid version also had a hybrid version - 1.3 I-DSI IMA (95 hp) with a variator.

Basic 1,3-liter gas engine (Offered under the trademark 1.4) more suitable for drivers with a calm temperament. 83-Strong Sivique with 1.4 I-DSI accelerates to 100 km / h almost in 15 seconds.

A good ratio of performance / efficiency is the 1.8 I-VTEC motor. The version with this engine is characterized by two exhaust pipes. In weaker modifications, plastic plugs are installed instead of pipes.

Motors 1.4 were two. Until 2009, an 8-valve version with a unique I-DSI ignition was installed - two candles on the cylinder. Candles, depending on the conditions, work consistently or simultaneously. This unit with the designation L13A7 is known for the first generation Honda Jazz. There were no problems with the EGR valve, which did not arise here.

Upgraded 1.4 L13Z1 - the best choice. It has already received 16 valves and ordinary ignition with I-VTEC system. The engine is slightly cheerful, but still weak for Sivik.

1.8 I-VTEC - got the greatest distribution. The R (R18A2) Motor (R18A2) is quite reliable. From problems, you can mention interruptions in work and difficult launch. Cause - Low fuel pressure due to failure fuel pump or reduce its effectiveness. The culprit is the corrosion of the terminal block of the power supply. Cleaning contacts or pump replacement.

1.8 In the machines collected until 2009, the time started to take the oil. It was caused by a great gap between the guide inlet valve and a stem valve of the third cylinder. When contacting the service in the warranty period, Honda changed the head of the block.

Good reviews got a diesel engine 2.2 I-CDTI. The Honda N22A author's engine provides high performance and at the same time consumes a small amount of fuel. For splicing fuel, Bosch nozzles are responsible, which are cheaper than those familiar to Japanese DENSO machines. However, the pocket can be great to hit possible malfunctions.

Until now, the number of messages about problems with dieselm is small, but time and kilometers do not stand still. It is necessary to be prepared for replacing the clutch and two-mask flywheel. There are also cases of cracking of the exhaust manifold. In addition, with time, the EGR valve is becoming deposits.

IN diesel versionsequipped with a solid particle filter long operation In the urban cycle leads to the discharge of motor oil fuel. Some owners remove DPF filter. However, non-professional elimination often leads to failures in the operation of on-board electronics, for example, cruise control does not turn on.

Transmission

Honda could not please the automatic transmissions. The automated I-SHIFT automated transmission provided for the hatchback works slowly and does not always pick up optimal transmissions, which annoys when trying to sharply accelerate.

In early 2009, the 5-door Civic received a classic 5-speed automatic, which was previously available only in the sedan. Equipment adjustment bypassed 3-door Civic Type S, which remained with the I-SHIFT box.

Alternative automated gearbox I-SHIFT is better to avoid, although the box itself is quite reliable. Just replacing the clutch will be quite a trawl procedure. It is necessary to train the control mechanism that combines an electric motor with hydraulic threshold control.

For many years, one of the weak points of Sivik is a manual transmission. Movement on too low revolutions kills box bearings. Fast switching and careless work The clutch pedal is annoyed by synchronizers. Especially the second transmission is particularly suffering - difficulty with its inclusion arise. In addition, the recipront pedal spring may break.

Chassis

Chassis Honda Civic 8 tolerates Russian expensive. On some copies, the front suspension tapping, which is very annoying, but it does not affect security. Others have to face a car in the right. Official services unsuccessfully change the elements of the chassis and exhibit the geometry of the wheels. But it does not lead to noticeable improvements.

The front shock absorbers are withstanding a little more than 45-60 thousand km. The knocks appear, and the behavior of the car is worse. Unfortunately, shock absorbers over 10 years are weak place European Honda. Faulty shock absorbers accelerate the wear of the support bearings: the outstanding strikes have to take over. Therefore, mechanics advise to change faulty racks immediately with support bearings, since the latter, most likely, already on the outcome, and re-repair is not far off.

Due to faulty shock absorbers, the steering mechanism can also be frown. Steering thrust also take part of the outstanding impact energy, which leads to damage to the guide of teflon bushings inside the steering rack. Thus, defective shock absorbers are capable of pulling a rather long chain.

After 45-60 thousand km, the brakes are often starting to creak. It is necessary to replace and pads, and discs. Brake discs are erased too quickly, the edge appears, which rubs about the metal part of the block, which is why the acoustic effect occurs. Rare trips lead to the back of the rear brake mechanisms.

Sometimes led the electromechanical steering amplifier. Risks of refusal were subject to cars issued until 2006. The control unit was to blame. Today, this defect is almost not found. But there are no failures in the work of the amplifier, yes and are observed. For example, at low temperatures.

A short-term power off is accompanied by the sunbathing of the yellow indicator in the form of a steering wheel. The glitch is eliminated by shutting down and re-activate the ignition. Worse when this happens while driving. As a rule, the disease is caused low voltage Battery.

Body

Sometimes water gets through the covers of the cover in the trunk. Traces of corrosion can be found on the elements of the chassis, the rear door and the bottom. These are separate foci that do not have a high speed of distribution and do not give reasons for concern. But if you plan to operate a car for a very long time, then you need to think about additional corrosion protection.

A serious disadvantage of this model is also considered to be a paintwork, which quickly turns into the chips and small scratches. Skoli most often appear on the hood and wings by the wheels.

Other problems and malfunctions

The owners usually indicate the following disadvantages: the creak of the cabin plastic, wiping the velor's upholstery chairs, the clutch pedal creak, failures in the work of the central lock and the dashboard glitches. Electrician problems are often associated with a bad contact of the mass. Honda loves a good mass.

Under the futuristic body hides a relatively simple mechanic, which facilitates repairs. Most parts I. supplies Have good substitutes. However, they are not always available, and many details are too expensive.

Ratages reliability

The reliability of Sivik was very highly appreciated by Dekra. The number of identified faults has never been above average values. The level of reliability during the mileage of 0-50 thousand km and 50-100 thousand km was slightly better than the competitors. But after 100,000 km, the superiority in reliability was becoming more obvious. Dekra considered the only weak venue of the car quickly wear brake pads And discs. Also identified defects associated with lighting.

ADAC notes that Honda Civic 8 in terms of reliability is inferior to Logan, Mazda 3, Astra and Focus. In the fault list: Dwelled battery, spark plug, engine electrician and lighting.

Conclusion

On the secondary market The sedans prevail. Large effort is to search for a 5-door hatchback or 3-door Civic Type S. Some coupe arrived from the United States. "American" versions are distinguished by the design of the exterior and interior, and on rear axis An independent suspension is used. Like the predecessor, Honda Civic 8 was going outside his homeland. The hatchback was supplied from the UK (Swindon), and sedans from Turkey (Gebze).

Despite the past years, Civic 8 remains one of the most attractive compact. Futuristic body lines are already so shocked, but still happy eyes. The volume and functionality of the trunk and the cabin is confused even the most recent models of competitors. The mechanical part was so good that much after small improvements twisted in the next generation - Honda Civic 9.

The basic engine is too weak to delight driving. Good performance guarantees a 140-strong 1.8-liter motor. In a calm pace, it consumes about 6-7 l / 100 km - as much as the basic 1.3 liter. If the driver begins to use high speed for more dynamic movement, then the flow jumps up to 9-11 l / 100 km. Engine reliable. Malfunctions are due to failure additional equipment, sensors or tightness loss with radiator. With frequent movement on high revolutions Oil consumption can exceed 0.5 l / 1000 km.

Turbodiesel 2.2 I-CDTI is economical and durable. Find an instance with such an engine and a small mileage is not easy.

All engines have a timing chain drive, which simplifies operation and maintenance.

Honda Civic 8 generation was presented for the first time in 2005. Until 2008, cars were supplied from Japan to Russia, that is, Japanese assembly, and starting with 2008 to the Turkish assembly.

Honda Civic, gained popularity due to bright appearance, congenital reliability and honed controllability. In Russia, the car was supplied in version 4D and 5D, 4D-4-door sedan, and 5D - hatchback.

There was also a sports version of Type R, whose sales peak was for 2008, this version was supplied in the 3-door version in the hatchback body and with a 2-liter engine.

All the details of Honda Civic 2008 will be presented in this article, specifications, reviews of owners, configuration, photos and videos.

Friends, for convenience, use the content, pleasant reading!

As I said, Honda Civic 8 generations came out in 2006, the model fell in love with Russian consumers, the queues from dealers reached up to 1 year.

Consumers liked the brave Honda design and excellent specifications at an adequate price. Sedan and hatchback differed from each other appearance, suspension and interior, but the heart is general, it is 1.8 liter motor, 140 horse power With the I-VTEC gas distribution phase system.

The engine is carrying the R18A index, he came to the replacement of the reliable d series. R18A, easy to design and reliable, if you properly care for the car (serve timely original liquids), the motor resource will delight owners.

Motor in Civic Civilian, but with Hondov's habits, up to 4000 rpm, smooth, after the 4 pickup up to 7000 revolutions, the response of the gas pedal is lightning.


Honda Civic 2008 in Hatchback Body

With the assembly of Honda, the Civic has a few gearbox, a Civic 4D sedan has a mechanical 6-speed gearbox and a 5-step "automatic". Civic 5D hatchback is a 6-step "mechanics" and a stepless variator, since 2009, the variator gave way to "automata", consumers preferred automatic box Transmissions.

Reliable aggregates mechanical PPC In particular, it is only worth changing the oil in the "box" of 60,000 kilometers, and it will survive the engine.

There is another 1.4 liter engine, it was officially not officially supplied to Russia, with it 5-speed "mechanics" until 2008, then 6-speed.

The chassis of Honda Civic 4D and the hatchback 5D is different, at the sedan for the best traditions of Honda, this is a multi-dimensional independent suspension, and the hatchback has a short-circuit beam (MacPherson).

The chassis is a durable, the only thing that 30,000 kilometers needs to change the support bearings of the front racks, they cost about 2 thousand rubles per piece (dealers changed under warranty).

Appearance and exterior

The Honda Civic of the 8th generation looks like a spacecraft, this is already a hurried verdict of the appearance of the Civic among the autoslahurnists, but the fact remains a fact, the design of it is cosmic. And it does not matter that this is a 4D sedan or 5D hatchback, both are cosmic.


The salon was designing the same aliens (in the good sense of the word), as the appearance, a two-level bounce rushes into the eyes dashboard from electronic speedometer.

Prices for Honda Civic begins from 400,000 to 750,000 rubles. The price depends on the year of production and configuration, for example, the 2008 Civic, you can buy for 450,000 rubles.

1) reliability. Nothing broke out. The hydrophop of the engine was worn out, the vibration went to the cold, replaced the pillow when running 100 thousand km, but it can hardly be considered a defect, the mileage was already decent and in principle it was possible to ride and without changing. It should be noted that during the run of 45,000 km was the last one (perhaps some replacements were carried out within the framework of that). But even taking into account this, I believe that 10 points can be put up for the reliability of this car. I heard a lot about problems with the steering rack, but not from your car.
2) handling. also 10 points. Very confident feel on the road. Of course, on bad roads, it is better to ride on something higher, for example, on Hyundai IX-35, but in comparison with classmates, Civic is definitely good. there was an experience of driving on the highway in the ice, a blizzard with rewinders on the road, a shower with a flooded rod and in other not very pleasant conditions, but everywhere Civic rushing and I was always sure about it
3) Dynamics. Excellent coherent engine operation, I-VTEC and automatic transmission systems (5 tbsp.) good dynamics And excitement from ride on Civic. In general, you need to carefully monitor the speed, the car provokes to a quick ride, the fines were very much compared with the previous cars (there were no at all). I recommend putting the antiradar)
4) appearance. The main plus, because of which the car was bought, then he goes into the background when he learned about the rest of the dignity. Without a doubt, the car attracts the eyes, especially female. I never managed to leave the parking lot and do not look back at her)
5) Exterior. Inside very beautifully everything is done, the dashboard is divided into 2 levels, a comfortable digital speedometer, all the devices in their places.
6) gasoline consumption. I think that for such dynamics, the flow rate is low (in the city no more than 9, on the highway no more than 7.5).
7) Unpretentious to gasoline. He eats 92nd gasoline from any refueling, there were situations when they had to refuel in dubious places, but it did not affect the behavior of the car. The golf after such a refueling once refused to drive more than 3000 rpm, had to be sick on the highway, slowly producing poor-quality gasoline.
8) Excellent factory xenon. Shines far, lacked only adjustments in height.

1) Hard suspension. Although, taking into account the clearance, it can not be different. Your fifth point should be ready to worry with the car all the irregularities of Russian roads.
2) actually the clearance itself. Shards somewhere in nature, off-road and so on I did not even consider and did not risk. The problems were even in the usual conditions of the city, especially in winter. It was necessary to move carefully, periodically climbing after the next contact of the bottom with a harsh Russian reality. Parking better back, although if there are 2 and more passenger from behind, there is a risk to hook a high curb of exhaust pipes.
In fact, at Sivik, I drove everywhere, where other cars were driving, just if you are an average escaped owner (like me), you need to ride a little more accurately and carefully than on another car.
The following is a low clearance - an uncomfortable landing into the car, so for high and complete people, as well as for families with young children, the option is not suitable.
3) Salon finishing materials. Hard plastic (compared to golf) and as a result, regular crickets in winter. The material on the armrest quickly rubs on the driver's door, so it's better to keep both hands on the steering wheel) the steering wheel in the Executive leather, resistant to wear, for 120 bend. There were no explicit traces of operation.
4) music. Not very good and clean sound of speakers, the reception of radio antenna is weak, frequent interference. The incomprehensible PI SEEK indication when the next radio station is turned on until the indication disappears, the radio station does not turn on for a few seconds.
5) Paint and varnish coating. weak, very easily scratched
