2001 Honda Civic Lx W/ New Front Tires, Front Suspension, Brakes & Rotors! on 2040-cars
Baltimore, Maryland, United States
|
2001 Honda Civic LX 1.7L, 5 SPD manual transmission with 168,156 miles. This car has been well maintained. Recently, the check engine light became illuminated so I changed the upstream O2 sensor. I later discovered that it was the downstream O2 sensor. So, I replaced the downstream sensor as well. In addition, when I was replacing the brake pads recently I noticed that the lower control arm bushings were totally blown out on both sides of the car. So, I replaced the lower control arms, lower ball joints, and sway bar links on both sides (see pictures). Of note, the lower ball joints were professionally pressed in at my local shop. I also decided to replace both front brake rotors with new Bendix brake rotors. Also, the timing belt and water pump was changed at around 125,000 miles. The battery is about a year old Sears Diehard. When I replaced the battery, last year I also replaced the alternator. The spark plugs were replaced with new NGK plugs last month. So, this car is driving like a new car right now and feels very good. I also recently purchased outer tie rods for both sides. However, the old tie rods appear to still be in good condition. I will provide the new tie rods to the winning bidder. I would recommend getting an alignment once the outer tie rods are done. The front tires are new BF Goodrich Traction TA 185-65-14. The rear tires are also BF Goodrich Traction TA tires with about 60% tread life left. The Motegi wheels were purchased at Sears and are in good condition with some curb rash. The transmission and clutch are working well. The only issue is that for some odd reason, the gears feel harder to shift in colder weather. It seems to be a common issue with Hondas. I had a shop check it out and all is well. There are some scratches, 1 area where some rust has started and the right rear quarter panel got dinged in a parking lot a few months ago (see pictures). All of these issues are merely cosmetic and I attempted to fix the right rear quarter panel by pushing it out from inside the trunk. There is only a slight separation between the quarter panel and the rear bumper cover which is hardly noticeable. I also recently reconditioned the headlights so that's why they look so good in the pictures. Of note, the Yakima roof rack is not included. I'm only selling because I recently purchased a 2006 Scion TC and I have too many cars right now. I am the second owner and purchased it in June 2009. I have receipts for all wok done. This is a very reliable car and has always started as long as I have owned it. The only time it didn't start is when I changed the battery a year ago. This is a no reserve auction. Questions are welcomed.

New death linked to Takata airbag crisis, Honda recalls 170k vehicles overseas
Sat, 15 Nov 2014The safety crisis surrounding Takata's exploding airbags continues to expand. In the latest revelation, Honda confirms another death linked to the faulty parts, and the company is expanding its recall of the components. However, none of the newly added vehicles are in the United States.
With the confirmation of this report, there are now five deaths linked to the faulty airbags. According to The New York Times, a pregnant woman in Malaysia was killed on July 27 in a 2003 Honda City when she crashed into another vehicle, and the inflator ruptured. This was the first announced case outside of the US.
The faulty part in the woman's car was reportedly made at a now-closed Takata factory in Georgia, according to the NYT, and it's the first known example from that location. In response, Honda recalled about 170,000 vehicles in Europe and Asia to replace the potentially bad inflators. The latest campaign brings the total number of recalled vehicles worldwide to around 14.3 million units.
Honda shines the spotlight on Project Drive-In success
Tue, 24 Sep 2013Project Drive-In, a Honda-sponsored campaign to save drive-in theaters across the country, is beginning to bear fruit, as the first theaters have been informed that they'll be getting free digital projectors. Many theaters still use 35-millimeter film, which is being phased out rather aggressively in the movie industry. The move to digital, meanwhile, requires nearly a six-figure investment, forcing many drive-ins to close up shop for good.
The first phase of the campaign saw the public vote for their favorite drive-in, with the top five getting a free digital projector, courtesy of Honda. There's some touching reaction videos of the owners being informed that they'd won down below. The next phase in the program takes place on Indiegogo, where Project Drive-In is trying to raise $100,000 for the drive-in that's gotten the next highest number of votes. If the Indiegogo campaign reaches that figure before its expiration on October 7, it'll make the donation and reset the meter to save another theater.
Take a look down below for the video from Honda on Project Drive-In, and then do yourselves a favor, and head over to the Project Drive-In Indiegogo campaign, and make a donation.
Is Honda working on airbags for smartphones?
Wed, 04 Dec 2013Smartphones are expensive yet delicate - a single impact on a hard surface can shatter their touchscreens, often damaging them beyond repair. Fitting a case offers only so much protection, but what about an airbag? Honda has explored the concept with the airbag-equipped Case N and even made a video about it. But alas, it isn't real.
For some reason, we really want it to be. Honda has a knack for surprising us with nearly unbelievable inventions designed to improve mankind's quality of life, contraptions like the Walking Assist Device and the UNI-CUB personal mobility devices, so the Case N isn't as far-fetched an idea for the company as you might think.
Head below to watch the video, where you can see the Case N concept in action. You'll also see its generous proportions, which is one reason why it's just a case of Honda humor - not (yet) a market reality.
