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 aggregate of Honda, the Civic has set several gearboxes, the Civic 4D sedan has a mechanical 6 step box Transmissions and 5-step "automatic". The Civic 5D hatchback is a 6-step "mechanics" and a stepless variator, since 2009, the variator gave way to "automatic", consumers preferred an automatic transmission.

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

Honda Civic 8th generation looks like spaceship, this is already brought by the verdict of the appearance of Civic among the autoslahurnists, but the fact remains a fact, the design of him 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, the two-level dashboard rushes into the eyes electronic speedometer.

Honda Civic This Honda car is very popular. Honda Civic is a class representative of a golf and manufactured from 1972.

In the linear row of Honda, Civic comes after a small Fit / Jazz and in front of a large ACCORD. The main competitors of the model are Toyota Corolla, Citroen C4, Kia Ceed / Cerato, Mazda 3, Hyundai Elantra, Opel Astra, Ford Focus, Mitsubishi Lancer., Nissan Almera / Pulsar / Sentra, Volkswagen Golf / Jetta, Subaru Impreza. And other similar cars from the class.

Throughout the life cycle, Civic replaced the generation of the car, and the engines were replaced in parallel. As part of this article, we will look at the engines that were installed on the eighth and ninth generation of cars.


Engine Honda R18A.

The Honda R18A engine saw the light in 2006 and was first used for the eighth model Honda Civic. The R18 engine was called up to replace outdated D17 motors in particular, and the series D as a whole. The GHR drive is based on the chain, the GBC has not changed, the same sixteenhal flag on one camshaft SOHC, added an intelligent system for changing the IVTEC gas distribution phase.

The engine is characterized by the presence of an intake manifold with a variable geometry (with two modes), the hydrocomathers are not available, which dictates the need for timely adjustment of the valves. A year since the start of the release, the engine was finalized and released analogue of a larger volume, which received the R20A index. Used it already on cars superior to the Civilian class. Directly modifications of the Honda R18A engine are quite a bit and can only be called R18A1, the variation created under the Japanese and North American markets, and R18A2 analogue for Europe. These variations from a technical point of view completely repeat each other. Technically motors are identical.

When it comes to weak Partiesah Engine Honda R18A, then as a rule, the following is noted. Often knocks the engine. As a rule, the case is in the adsorber, but specifically in its valve, and this is a normal situation. On Civic models, a knock may occur due to valves, so you need to regulate them in a timely manner.

It happens that the owners of cars with the R18A engine complain about extraneous noise. It can be a drive belt, the tensioner of which can be premature to wear. In this case, to get rid of extraneous swords, you just need to replace the item. It happens that vibrations occur. Vibrations in the absence of engine warming, this is normal. If the vibrations arise and after the engine warming up, and even tangible, it is a reason for checking the supports.

It should also be noted that the engine loves high-quality fuel and oil, if not complying with this requirement, can order a long lambda probe long, catalyst and a gas distribution phase change system. In general, engine Honda. R18A is quite reliable and in case of proper service, it is capable of listening for a long time, without delivering any trouble to the owner.

Engine Honda K20A (Z)

In 2001, the audience was represented by the Honda K20 engine, he delivered the B20, H22, F20 successor. The engine opened to the series, being a representative of row four-cylinder engines. Driver motor chain, chain itself has a good resource. The engine is characterized by the presence of an intake manifold with a variable geometry.

The engine has a two-channel head of the cylinder block and an intelligent system of changing phases of gas distribution. But there are no hydraulic components, so timely valve adjustment is required. The engine was periodically modified, which led to the existence of various versions, both simple and sports type. After 2007, the engine was replaced with a new R20. The engine was periodically finalized, so that there are several modifications with different power characteristics on the market.

Like any engine, K20 is not deprived of the weaknesses. Among the most common, following. It knocks the engine, most often this is due to the worn out graduation camshaft, which must be replaced. Also, the knock may occur because of the unregulated valves. Maybe oil, most often the reason in the front crankshaft gland, which requires replacement.

Engine Honda K24A.

The engines with the index index were replaced by the F23 engines, and they created them on the basis of two-liter K20, through the setting of the crankshaft having an enlarged piston stroke. In addition, the developers made an increase in the cylinder block in height, and also increased the diameter of the pistons, the truth is slightly. The timing chain has a chain, in separate variations there are balancing shafts.

Also, for some models, the presence of an intake having a variable geometry is characterized, but the hydrocompensators are missing, which requires the holders to periodically adjust the valve. Naturally, as many popular K24 engines have a significant number of different modifications with different power indicators.

Among the most common engine faults, the following are noted. It knocks the engine, most often this is due to the worn out graduation camshaft, which must be replaced. Also, the knock may occur because of the unregulated valves. Maybe oil, most often the reason in the front crankshaft gland, which requires replacement.

Periodically can start swimming, so that it is necessary to correct this throttle valve and idling valve. In addition, it happens that vibrations occur due to worn out of engine pillows, or a stretched timing chain. And the rest of the engine is good. It is only worth providing him with proper care and the use of high-quality oil and fuel.

Honda Civic VIII - the eighth generation of the popular golf class car model honda.. Cars in the body sedan and second-generation hatchback were first built on a different platform.

Honda Civic.

The concept of the model was first introduced in the spring of 2005 at the Geneva Motor Show, and the official premiere of Civic VIII took place September of the same 2005 in Frankfurt am Main. At the end of the same year, the model has already gone into a series. In terms of design, Civic was favorably distinguished from other presented models of a similar class. A well-developed elegant body profile and a futuristic front panel turned out to be a special luck.

Separate interest caused the fact that Honda's company for the first time as part of one model offered completely different, depending on the type of body, cars. The hatchback was fundamentally different from the sedan and vice versa. The differences were not external - salons and even the design of the suspension was different.


The press knitted these differences with the fact that Honda always divided buyers to four main groups: Japanese, Europeans, Americans and residents of other regions.

For the European market, Honda created a special CIVIC in the body 3x and 5-door hatchback. Aggressive and memorable design created Toshiyuki Okimoto. For the first time, the model was shown in the form of a concept car Honda Fox, which was shown, including at the annual automotive exhibition in Moscow in 2005.


Technical Features Honda Civic VIII

Releaseing Honda Civic VIII company asked new standards in the golf class. First of all, it is a wedge-shaped body with a broad ripple and a low center of gravity.

Compared to the predecessor at Civic VIII, a shorter wheelbase in 2635 mm (against 2685). Reduced by 37 mm and length of the machine (up to 4248 mm), the car has become below 35 mm and wider by 65 mm. The wheels are maximally separated by the corners of the body, providing a car maximum stability during maneuvers. Even in the basic configuration on the Civic VIII, sixteen-seed wheels were installed.

When developing suspension, engineers went in traditional way: ahead of the usual rack MacPherson, a half-dependent H-shaped circuit.

Engineers carefully worked inner space Body. Reducing dimensions did not affect the convenience of passenger accommodation.

The salon looks unusual thanks to the new "two-storey" instrument panel. From above on a digital speedometer, speed data is largely shown, and at the bottom remaining parameters. The original three-spoke steering wheel is equipped with control keys, the box lever looks out of a deep "well" in the continuation of the console, behind it the windows control keys and the cigarette lighter. Between the front armchairs a comfortable armrest.

The front seats are equipped with a multitude of adjustments and good lateral support.

The modified body layout made it possible to significantly increase the capacity of the luggage compartment (up to 0.485 m3 without spicy) due to the transfer of the 50-liter fuel tank under the front seats (this body zone is recognized as safe when hit). An increase in the trunk contributed to the use of a compact rear semi-dependent suspension with a torsion beam.

Simplification of the suspension did not affect the car handling due to the more rigid body structure and the installation of a more accurate electromechanical steering amplifier.

In Europe, the model was supplied in three configurations: Comfort, Executive and Sport. The modification of Comfort is already in the database equipped with everything necessary for a comfortable and secure ride. In the EXECUTIVE configuration, in addition to the main equipment are installed: xenon optics with washers, automatic climate control and glass panoramic roof.

Civic with the body of the sedan is in demand and outside Europe. It comes to other markets with a more traditional exterior.

The Civic VIII sedan, unlike the hatchback, has become noticeably more than its predecessor.


80 mm increased wheeled base; The car has become 83 mm longer and 35 mm wider. Eventually new sedan Civic is now only a bit inferior on the dimensions of the ACCORD class "D". Sedan, as before, (in contrast to the hatchback) is equipped with an independent rear suspension.

For the US market, a special modification of Civic was produced in a two-door coupe. In the Civic Coupe database, it is equipped with a 1.8l motor, and the Civic Coupe Si version is a high-known dual-liter engine with a capacity of 200 hp. And it is completed with a six-speed manual transmission. Up to 96 km / h, the car accelerates in such a configuration for 7.3 s.

Engine and transmission

The developers were provided for the eighth generation of Civic three types of engines: 8-valve, DSI with two ignition candles in each cylinder 1.3l, 83l.c ,; The newest 16-valve Motor of the I-VTEC series with variable gas distribution phases, oil cooling of the pistons, the variable of the inlet pipeline and the chain drive for camshafts in the timing, 1.8l, 140l.s. and 174 nm. Finally, a 140-strong turbodiesel I-CDTI volume of 2.2l. "Kid" -dsi 1.3l in this lineer is borrowed from the Jazz model and of course it cannot satisfy whose sports ambitions, since until the first hundred he gets only for 14.2 p., But will attract many buyers with their fuel economy. Such a complete set of "eighth" civic in a sporty style, only for retaining the start price of the car in reasonable limits.

Motor Series I-VTEC 1.8L, 140L.C. passes "weaving" for 8.6c, leaving the maximum 207 km / h. Engineers Honda Motors believe that this engine is comparable to the power parameters with a 2-liter motor, and on fuel economy with 1.5 -LITRO.

The honorary pedestal of the leader in power is occupied by Dvizel 2.2 I-CDTI, with 340 NM points at 2000 rpm and overclocking up to hundreds in 8.5 seconds.

The engines were completed with 6-speed mechanical or (by request) automatic robotic transmissia i-shift. For a diesel engine is provided only by the MCPP.

After restyling the model in 2009, the five-speed automatic transmission was established instead of the "robot".

Safety

Essential element passive security Became a subframe that serves as a support for aggregates. This item allows you to absorb the blow energy both in the transverse and longitudinal direction.

Honda Civic VIII Even in the basic configuration, equipped with front and side airbags, as well as upper inflatable side curtains. In addition to the pillows, the active head restraints of the front armchairs and outgoing from under the feet when the pedal node is hit. The innovation was the system of alarm on unsecured belts rear seatsWarming in the event of a passenger.

In the system active security Civic VIII includes a standard ABS installation with EBD function - brake force distribution, as well as VSA - a dynamic stabilization system.

The car was aimed at a youth audience, but an extraordinary appearance Made it popular in people of different ages.

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

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 rear door, Again in the sports style, is an anti-cycle, which improves high speed stability, but a worsening review. 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. Tachometer is located right in the center dashboardAnd 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 Honda Civic engine - frustrated, traditionally, turn around, rumored and pleasantly excites the vestibular device.
The mechanical 6-speed box allows you to accelerate up to one hundred per half with faster than with its robotic option. Automatic box In the Honda Civic hatchbacks will not be, 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, sufficiently 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. IN basic complete set 6-speed mechanical box, 6 airbags, ABS with EBD, course stability system, alarm system, climate control, cruise control, electric power steering, rain sensor, headlight washers, on-board computer, Audio system with CD / MP3 / WMA receivers and 6 speakers. Per robotic box need to pay ~ $ 1000, and for glass roof - plus another ~ $ 1400.
