Civic X - The name of Issues

[outouters]

AoA.
Every year I get to experience new issues with my LAFAFA 1.8. It has been 4 years,No doubt it is a wonderful car to drive.
So last month when I turned on the air conditioner and guess what hawa aayi hi ni, smell aayi....
So i got it checked via technician he told me ke EVACTUATOR COIL FARIGH HOGYA HAI, i already knew that it was a genetic issue so nvr mind i called Honda and asked about it, they were like gari warranty see bahir hai and i was like ye inherited problem hai, u should replace it for free and as usual ignore krdiya.
I asked them for expense and everything.... GOT AN ESTIMATE OF 75k,
The next day i went to Punjab car AC he gave an estimate of 35k, again it wasn't oem coil,
A friend of mine recommended NOBEL CAR AC near Quratba Chowk, he gave an estimate of 15k.
Brand new coil ( MALAYSIAN) V-coil costed me 9500 PKR, upon asking he said ap kehty hain toh OEM daldeta hu Phir change krwana pare ga us mein masla hai, OEM COIL was around 36-37k..
In short i got my coil replaced for 14000 with labor charges. Total time consumed was 2.5 hours.

it has been 6 years since the launch and the issue hasn't been resolved yet, A 2019 model facelifted civiic was also getting the coil replaced...

I've had it for like 5 6 months and tbvh it has had weird issues, small once but weird, pretty low quality car, i own a grande too since 3 years, never had an issue whatsoever.

So i opened my bonnet last week to check the fluids and then i couldn't close it.
So got it checked bla bla and had to replace the spring component and the dude said it's a common thing in this model.
Today i took out the car and observed the break hold not working

sad to hear this
rack and coil issue or the battery boiling should have been rectified
how is the cooling performance with this coil ?

[zee5han]

Breakhold only works if you have driver seatbelt on, in case you didn't know

[arslanawan222]

O didn't know that, i don't remember if i had it on or no.
Thanks for the heads-up
Will check tomorrow

[zee5han]

Also if your brakehold is active (meaning car is on hold and you unbuckle your seatbelt your E-handbrake applies automatically)

[arslanawan222]

Good quality information man, thanks a lot.

[outouters]

Better than before tbh

[outouters]

Well thats a saftey feature, break hold is linked with e brake

[outouters]

Battery issue is still there sir....

Reading threads like this, I consider myself lucky as I haven't faced a single issue in my car since 3 years of owning it.
