Hahaha well its neither chinese nor japanese..its pakistani!.:-p.Actually the roads i drive on are quite pathetic coupled with a used car is why maybe the shocks have given up..but these are replacement items and they usually require replacement on any car..even mercs!

You're wrong bro, gadha gaari does not need shocks replacement.

That only requires replacement of the gadha..the gari is invincible;)

No doubt the handling of this car is superb as compared to other local cars but owning an 8th gen myself for 3 yrs i wuld say that its always better to get either a brand new 8th gen(when it came new) or an 8th gen that has the proper maintainence history otherwise this car will give u problems..bcz pre 2009 models were prone to some manyfacturing faults from factory...Nonetheless still after all that its an awesome car for someone who really enjoys driving and whats to communicate with the road while driving..Just my own experience!

Bro parts are easily available from bilal gunj.etc so it wont be a problem to get this car in okay condition

@ashbal..Bro need advice on shocks replacement of civic 8th gen..What brand to go for and where to buy..bilal gunj or montgomery road..?? Ride has become like fx!

What tyres are you using?secondaly the tuck tuck u were telling abt is frm the bushes and afte rreplacing then u wont feel uncomfortable as u wont be hearing any sound and most of the mindset of shocks getting weak wull go away on itself...btw i would prefer orignal honda ones go to montgomeray and ask them for genuine shocks but not the ones with honda packing...whats the reading on odo btw?

Who Said anything about Mileage. Today i had single point of petrol left with a yellow warning Indicator. I filled it up for about 1500 which gave 19 liters of petrol. I drove about 238km to be exact when I came back now once again I am left with single point on fuel gauge.

Now 238 divide by 19 gives 12.57kms on a litre which i think is quite good. Remember i was driving with ac on 120 to 130 constant aur isi drive mein hi I took it to 204. Kon kehta hai civic 8th ka mileage kharab hai people are getting 16 17 also. Han but sheher mein waqai i am getting only 7 8 km still i think is very very good for me. Donot think its a 1800cc which will consume a lot of gasoline. Think of technology they have given in a 1800cc which powerful yet economical. Civic basically hai hi highway ki gaari

My car gave me an avrg of 16 on my last trip frm fslbd to lhr and ac was mostly on avrg speed was arnd 130 many times took it to 150 and 160..highwst speed reached was above 200 once i dnt remember to what speed i went
In city mine is giving 10 with ac as of now mixed driving excluding the red lining ddrive

Have u touched 230? Pl share your experience.

I have touched 238 on the particular one i am having right now it didnt stop there i had to brake... somewhat of rpm was still left but didnt got a chance again to go at that speed...experienve was that it didnt give that feeling what most cars give wo jo feel hota k pathar b neche sy guzra gari hiljayegii...it was to the road but at that speed the scary part is always there due to mental thinking

When coming down the breaker does it feel like the shocks will tear apart the engine bay?like they are not working at all and the car is running without shocks?

On the front it feels like that..and if i go a bit fast i hear a tuk sound also as if the shocks are bottoming out..even on road bumps it seems the shocks have no movement in them..also the car leans alot on taking turns...and also..car feels aalooot more comfortable when i have people sitting at the back..goes over bumps real softly then!

Isnt it better to get shocks of kyb brand..for just the front..and bushes?..repairing shocks seems like a big no no

Repairing is not kind of repairing like straighning them up...i think its just the refilling of gas whatever it is...and abt chngng i will always say get genuine ones...bushes get new there are only two and price for each is arnd 1200...did u get the estimate for shocks?

Oem ones from honda cost 11k per shock..without the spring..so thats 44k for 4 shocks..

I will check with honda point tomorrow for the genuine ones but not in honda packing...those are made by same company and same specs just sold in the companys packing and are the third of price compared to honda
