problem #2

Civic DX 1.7L V4

  • Automatic transmission
  • 145,000 miles

Put $2000 into fixing up the suspension only for this to happen a few months later. Its like God hates my wallet or something. Apparently broken head gaskets are a recurring problem for D17 engines so I'm just gonna cut my losses and spring for a new vehicle.

problem #1

Civic GX

  • CVT transmission
  • 125,000 miles

Misfires constantly gave engine codes. New spark plugs and coils did not solve the problem. New, and very expensive fuel injectors did not solve the problem. Replacing the head gasket would have solved all the misfiring problems if it had been correctly diagnosed first.
