Q: What are some good ideas for a black 2007 honda civic sedan?

Q: How do I change my wipers on a 2004 Honda Civic?
Does anyone have experience changing the wipers on a 2001-2005 Honda Civic? Can’t seem to get mine off the arm even after reading the manual.

A: if you’re looking to replace the blades then lift the wiper arm up off of the windshield so that it stands up on the pivot. then flip the wiper blad over so that the rubber insert is facing upward.

look at the wiper arm that hold the blade. you’ll see the end of the arm looks like a hook ( J. ) push the wiper blade down the wiper arm (towards the windshield) until the wiper blade detatches from the hook. then move the wiper blade to the full side of the gap in the blade so that the hook slides through the opening and the blade is free from the arm.

once you do one you’ll get the hang of it.

pay attention to the orientation of the blade when you remove it so that you can put the new one on the same way.

by the way, its much less expensive to change the inserts (just the rubber that goes inside the metal blade). Honda dealers will usually put the inserts on at no charge if you buy the inserts from them

hope that helps

Q: why do the doors on my honda civic apparently not completely lock with the remote?
i have a 2001 honda civic, and when i press the lock button on the remote, it sounds like the doors are locking, but i have to press it a second time to get it to make the typical beep noise. every other car i’ve ever seen does that the first time. it seems so weird. is this normal?

A: Many cars lock when you push the button the first time and arm the alarm when you push the button the second time.

Test the system by pushing the lock button on the keyless entry one time and trying to open the doors. If the doors don’t open then your car probably works this way as well.

Q: The blower motor in my 2003 Honda Civic will run for a few seconds then shut down, any ideas?
Honda Civic 2003 blower motor will run for a few seconds then will shut off until the key is cycled on/off. During those few seconds the fan will only run at one speed (there are about 8 positions). Anyone have any ideas?

A: Sounds like your blower resistor is shot. If the only fan speed that works is the highest then that is your problem. Replacing that resistor will solve your problem. If its still under warranty it shouldn’t cost you anything.

Q: How much would it cost to change a 05 honda civic timing belt myself?
I have a 2005 honda civic and i was wondering how much would it be to change the water pump and the timing belt myself?

A: the parts are cheap, its the labor that kills ya. Its really not that hard to do, just takes some time. you have to take a good amount of stuff apart, and making sure that you get the timing belt lined up correctly in crucial.

its good to also replace the valve cover gaskets while you have it off and all the other belts too. you can get a kit for about 180 that has all the gaskets and belts, or you can just buy the timing and pump separately for for like 30 bucks for the timing belt and water pump for about 60ish.

Q: What are my options for purchasing warranty on my Honda Civic?
Factory warranty on my 2004 Honda Civic LX has expired. Can someone tell me what are my options for purchasing warranty?

A: I agree with Sailor.

Honda Civics are very reliable. I have a 2000 Civic with 74K miles and with normal maintenance (3000-mile oil changes, air filters, radiator flush and spark plugs), it’s been running very well. To do: timing belt, water pump and transmission fluid flush, brakes. I expect more than 200K miles on the powertrain. I knew a guy who once got more than 650K miles on a 1980’s vintage Civic before he sold it and bought another Honda.

Find out how much you would have to spend on an extended warranty and put those funds in a money market account. Use it to pay for any catostrophic failures that probably won’t happen, and you will come out ahead at the end.

Any Honda dealer will be glad to quote and sell you a warranty. Also call your auto insurance agent or even AAA for a warranty quote.
