2014 Honda Civic Si Review - How It Held Up After A QUARTER-MILLION MILES!

[@joey86bu1]

If this was a typical US company, it would have had the transmission replaced 3 times, engine replaced twice and the body would be rusting out.

[@kiraleaf]

I steer away from companies that design for planned obsolescence and get federal bailouts when they can't keep their businesses afloat. Hyundai got caught up again with child labor scandals at Georgia plants. Toyota and Honda don't seem to have these kinds of problems, funny.

[@bwofficial1776]

I wonder how many times the suspension and exhaust have been replaced. Honda Civics and Accords and some CR-Vs are prone to the suspension wearing out and collapsing along with the exhaust rusting out.

The seized parking brake could explain going through rear brakes so fast

[@B95_P]

These cars have a rear brake bias for whatever reason. There is a similar issue with the TSX. I have a 2013 Si with almost 100k on the original front pads and it's 2nd set of rears probably due soon for a 3rd so....almost lines up exactly with his experience.

[@wigletron2846]

@@B95_P rear brake bias helps with turn-in/rotation and reduces understeer, so that makes sense.

[@Tixbomber]

@@B95_P No vehicle has a rear brake bias, greater than the front. Nor does any Civic ever made, not have a standard 20% rear brake bias (like every other fwd car ever made). It would be completely stupid to have a greater than front, rear brake bias. If you're just saying it has rear brake bias. That's completely irrelevant. The problem with 9th. Is the caliper guide pins seize, it has absolutely nothing to do with brake bias.

[@Tixbomber]

@@wigletron2846 Except there's no Honda Civic made that would EVER have more than a 20%-25% rear bias. Not to mention they can't, due to NHTSA and DOT laws. Honda wouldn't use brake bias for turn in improvement. They'd used toe, camber, wheel, and sway bar sizing.

[@toledotoledo7297]

Thats strange, i got an 08 with 280K and I had seized calipers and eventually I had the parking brake replaced. Its still going alright. Its not my daily driver anymore, and even though its my slowest car and doesnt handle as well as my R, its actually more fun for daily driving.

[@AlotLikeEd]

This was my first car I bought it new and threw absolutely everything at it ,16 hour drives,snow,super hot deserts and even some dirt trails and the only issue I ever had was one of the charging ports going out. I hit about 150k miles on it before it got totaled by a drunk driver running a red light and t-boning me. She did a great job protecting me :,) left with just a small bruise. Upgraded to an ND Miata but I still miss how easy it was to live with my si

[@thecountscastle4860]

I got mine brand new too. I got into a crash. I got injured though because my hand was in the path of the airbag and broke my knee because my knee was to close to the plastic. I miss my car so much. I'm thinking of fixing the car even though it is a salvage.

[@PSYCHOSENSI]

Okay but why did I own a civic and also lost it in a crash where someone else hit me too 😂 what kind of coincidental karma is dat

[@revnto7k]

I am an owner of an 8th gen SI / K20Z3 and same story. No major issues, engine trans and clutch original. Around 175K miles. Just such stout cars that are fun to drive. Hard to argue with the formula. I've owned mine 10 years and it's needed rear calipers once, one outer tie rod end, both idler pulleys (bearings went) and an A/C compressor relay. And some bulbs. (but not many) Many oil changes and a few brake jobs... Such a joy to own and drive. I know I can get in and go with no worries even at 13 years old.

[@ka124as]

Rocking my 8th gen too. Bought it new and still love it! The new turbo cars just don’t go be me the same thrill of that vtec, even if it’s not fast, it’s exciting hah

[@Tixbomber]

8th gen is def better build quality than 9th though.

[@IsaacPoopsAlot]

@@Tixbomber what? the interior is clearly better

[@TassieLorenzo]

@@Tixbomber I wouldn't say I totally agree. The 9th gen sedan had some cost-cutting at first, but that was fixed pretty quickly after a year or two. I'd say the 9th gen hatch has better superficial build quality (more sound insulation, felt-lined glovebox etc) than the 8th gen hatch. With both of the 9th gens being facelifts, I guess the 8th gens were more of a pure expression of the futuristic styling language though -- the 9th gens both sedan and hatch are both a bit more toned down. Assembly quality is a wash for all hatchbacks made in Swindon, England IMO (be it 7th, 8th, 9th, or 10th-gen!). It's pretty normal to have hatches & bonnet installed that don't line up quite right, lol. 😂

[@JustSimplyRobert]

I love this vehicle, and love your commentary. I have a 2015 SI coupe, its actually the lowest mile one in my area and honestly the lowest 9th gen SI milage I have seen. Picked up at 49k miles in December 2021 from the showroom at a local dealer. It had a single owner, it was garage kept, and came with a copy of all it's service records. It's currently at 81k miles now, and I honestly can't get enough of it. If you know how to drive a stick, its definitely the car you wanna get if your looking for a sporty compact.

[@Tixbomber]

I have 3, 9th Si. 26k, '15 sedan. 57k '13 coupe. 82k '12 sedan (only one bought new. not bad for a 12yrs old car).

[@davinp]

and pre-Android Auto. You could probably replace it with an aftermarket unit. Toyota also offered a backup camera on the 2014 Corolla. That's problem with older cars, is that it has outdated infotainment system as automakers don't update them. We should not have to buy a new car to get the new tech when it can be retrofitted into older cars

The fact that it's in such good condition at this mileage. That's dedication and I respect that. I wish my Mazda 3 was as reliable. Then again she's been mostly reliable.

[@vikingmetalhead024]

It really has held up well, the owner has a lot to be proud of. I’m curious, it sounds like your Mazda’s been nearly as reliable - maybe you’re willing to elaborate on what your maintenance journey has been like? I own a 2022 Mazda 3 and it will likely end up being a high miler as it ages. I’m curious how current and previous model years have been holding up.

[@maniac1628]

Mines as clean as this and has 163k still runs like a dream

[@maniac1628]

Blue coupe

[@bricegraham8256]

@vikingmetalhead024 heh its funny you ask. I've done quite a bit of work on it and still ga e quite a bit of work left on it. Of course I've done tires, brakes routine oil changes. I've also had to replace my rear camber arms and lateral links. Front sway bar links, front outer tie rods, I'm eventually do the inners, driver side cv axle, battery twice technically 3 but I upgraded the second battery to get a better one. Intake manifold runner solenoids, I take manifold/gaskets, spark plugs, coil boots, Oil seperator/pcv valve, cleaned the throttle body, cleaned the intake manifold. Pretty soon I gotta do injectors, replace pretty much everything in the evap system do all of the front suspension, the rest of the rear thay I haven't done yet. And eventually when I have a second car I might lower it and if my cat goes out ima do a baffled exhaust. That way I can be quiet in the neighborhood when I come home. Oh also I had my transmission rebuilt at 186k miles and I was in an accident twice and pretty much had all of the front body components replaced twice. The only things original to the front is the fog light retainers and the license plate bracket. Got LED headlights and LED foglights and the license plate light and back up lights are LED and I still needa do the turn signals and brake lights however I still need brake light sockets cause they're tryna fall apart on me.

[@jasonbaldwin6760]

Love my 2012 Si Sedan @ 117k miles. Owned since 2015, It is kind of a shame that even Honda themselves did not give to much love to the 9th gen civic. Mugen and Modulo both have lip kits for the FB6 and HFP has a lip kit as well for the coupe, but beyond that there is not much in house love.

[@danielc6816]

I have the same car. Mine is about to reach the 200k mark. The things that I’ve had to replace over its 10 year run have been: The transmission mount, the reverse switch on the transmission, the drive belt, the belt tensioner and the ac compressor. The vtc solenoid o ring is starting to leak a bit, but that is an easy fix and I’ll take care of it on its next oil change. My rear brake pads also don’t last very long usually 1.5 to 2 years. The original front pads lasted til 150k, it still has the original rotors, original clutch, no major leaks, doesn’t burn oil, the paint is good, not many rock chips or clear coat failure, the interior materials haven’t aged much. During covid in 2020-21 due to over using hand sanitizer it made the symbols on the hazard, vsa and headlights switches fade so I had to replace those. Edit: original clutch was replaced at 193k 3/2024

[@TLEE1977]

Where has he been driving? I have a 2015 that looks exactly like this, but has 82k on it. She's been hit 3 times, but keeps on ticking. The 3rd time was this year and I was so close to getting the Acura Integra aspec 6MT. The market isn't what it used to be and I did further research on those little 1.5L turbo engines. I'm keeping my Si and breathing new life into it.

[@Ahsangill19]

Huge thumbs up to honda for making these 9th gen sis so reliable I actually just got one with 121k on the clock and it literally has nothing wrong with it at all excited to know Ill be enjoying mine for a long time to come.

[@weswest8666]

My 13 Si has 138k, before I bought it it’s hit two deer, a curb that I know of. Basically it’s been rebuilt 3 times at least. Doesn’t leak or burn anything, love driving it, only complaint is the shifter is worn. Might get that high dollar acuity shifter someday but don’t feel like ponying up for it just yet. The starter went out and ac compressor exploded. It’s had a rough life.

[@deadfishparty]

Love to see more high mileage reviews please.

[@MedicusART]

I love my 9th gen Civic Si, got in 2023 and its a 2015 coupe with 37k miles on it.

[@bwofficial1776]

The Spanish Civic. The engine and body on Hondas last forever. The split dashboard was controversial when it came out but was an interesting attempt. I'm a little curious how this racked up so many miles in 9 years. 250k averages out to a little more than 27k per year which is well above average. This car looks pretty good for the miles and has a lot of life left in it.

[@Tixbomber]

The split dashboard started with 8th, not 9th. And the only controversy is from people that have never driven with the split dash, or seen it in person. Which is infinitely better than 95% of dashes (in cars people can actually afford). Are you calling it the "Spanish Civic", because of it being an "Si"? The paint and bodies are the first things to go on every Honda ever made. The engines last forever though. There's also plenty of people that can rack up well over 30k/yr. The car was most likely a work car, that involved a lot of travel.

[@josedusol]

@@Tixbomber it is true there was some controversy, or at least it divided people. Later gens abandoned that dash favoring a more ordinary or conservative style. I think that especially the 9th inside looks like a spaceship, i liked.

[@Tixbomber]

@@josedusol It was only really "controversial" in the automotive journalism sphere. In all honesty, I don't think most people would even care. I imagine the real reason for a change back to just a "traditional" cluster style, is for cost savings. As well as it makes it much easier with modularity/utilization, when you have multiple vehicles built from the same unibody, using most of the same parts.

[@peopleschampgarage7869]

[@dillo2916]

I'm sad many people crap on this car for not having "true VTEC", having 1000 less RPM and replacing the double wishbone rear for a multi-link setup from the 8th gen. While those are valid critiques, I still don't think they're enough to label the car as crap completely. It offers, personally, the best mix of NA fun while not being a complete dog to drive. It's still pretty tossable around corners too. Imo, prob has one of my fav Civic exteriors providing a nice mix of aggressive but not too flashy.

[@TassieLorenzo]

It still has the VTEC crossover sound though? Are they referring to lack of VTEC on the exhaust cam? It's not economy VTEC.

[@dillo2916]

@@TassieLorenzo Yeah, the latter. It would have been cool though to have VTEC on both cams but it's not a big detriment. I still find the K24Z7 a fun engine.

[@LordBagdanoff]

[@Deadlybroom]

The fact that that engine doesn’t burn or leak oil is why I miss my old 2005 Honda CR-V that got totaled with 220,000 miles. I miss that car so much. It was just so darn reliable and great to work on! Now I have a 2017 Civic EX-T. At 57,000 miles, the valve cover gasket blew so it started leaking oil. Not to mention oil dilution problems… Honda quality is not what it once was. I might have to invest in an older Honda once again after all!

[@ryanlittleton5615]

How do you have 57k on it if it has OD problems? Pretty sure it would've blown up awhile ago.

[@Deadlybroom]

@Jonathan-mp7xg in my CR-V, nothing started leaking until it hit 120,000 miles when the valve cover started leaking, but I had to get the valves adjusted anyways. I understand that engines leak from time to time. It’s normal. But I was a little shocked that a 4 year old Honda with only 57,000 miles began leaking when my experiences in the past with the brand were different.

[@Deadlybroom]

@@ryanlittleton5615 Honda did the “software fix” and the engine warms up… slightly faster. The main issue is short trips where the engine doesn’t warm up all the way. Because the piston rings are engineered to have lass friction (for more fuel economy), and it’s a direct fuel injected engine (increases crank case pressure) gasoline slips past the piston rings when it’s fired into the cylinder, mixing it with the oil. Usually when the engine is cold. It’s an insidious problem, but it’s not so bad. I change my oil ever 4,000-5,000 miles just to try to keep the oil as oily and less gasoliney as possible.

The center console shiny but no tears or rips. I couldn’t disagree more about the back seat. My wife and I are under six foot and under 200 lbs. We both fit perfectly with leg room, so…?

And I have to replace some worn-out parts such as front-end suspension, ball joints, crossmember brace, and control arms with changeing brakes and changes on top of it, consistently oil changes and it will last a long g time. I will not be buying another car anytime soon, like the owner of the 2014 Honda Civic SI with 250,000 miles ain't buying no new car anytime soon, thanks to inflation. And we wonder why people are keeping their old paid off vehicles because of it if.

When EBD(Electronic Brake Force Distribution) was first introduced, such vehicles do have a proclivity to eat rear brake pads faster than front ones. In addition to Honda always have tiny little brakes to the rear just made things a lot worse.

[@Tixbomber]

Has nothing to do with it. EBD is never greater than 20% any way. So there is 0% chance, rear pads would wear faster than front. Unless they had some super high coefficient of friction compared to the front. FWD cars will almost never transfer more than 5% in everyday driving, including stop and go to the rear. The brakes on every Civic ever made, are more than adequate to stop the car, without even taxing the system or pads. Modern ABS systems (aka the past 35yrs) also HAVE to by law, be able to provide 25% greater force, than what's actually needed to stop the car tbw. Get with the times. You're living in the 80s world of cars apparently. 9th eat rear pads, because people don't know how to lube guide pins. And they seize. So the pad just drags across the rotor, the entire time the car is being driven.

I do lossless files via a DAC dongle and AUX. New cars should have AUX

@@faheemabbas3965lossless DAC files but it’s in a moving car with a exhaust and engine and ac vent fan and tire and wind noise to ruin the audio clarity

Sounds like my 6 speed manual Acura TL. It held all its fluids to at a quarter mile millions 😂

Nice lil well kept Civic... Holding up to Hondas bulletproof build quality reputation. Am I the only one who gets BMW vibes from it's taillights?

Clearly there's something wrong with the rear brakes if they need to be replaced that frequently.

My Subaru got the mileage beat. Silly Honda😊

[@faheemabbas3965]

And no head gasket issues? People make those cars seem impossible to modify because of head gaskets…

[@82_KID]

@@faheemabbas3965 Hehehe well. It actually has had the "famous" HG issue (Shooting Cars had my car on 8 days ago! I'm the Subaru. License plates same as screenname and pic) but THIS time... "MLS and never having that problem again!" You need to be CERTAIN the person making the repair knows what you're doing with it. It is a process.

[@faheemabbas3965]

@@82_KIDI’ve heard that Subarus are fine, but it’s just that they’re not as tolerant to bad maintenance, especially when it comes to oil.

[@82_KID]

@@faheemabbas3965 I'd agree with that. Good maintenance will surely help them out!

Neat!

alright ima be the first one to ask... HOW DO YOU GO 250K MILES ON A CAR FROM 2014???

[@matthewfuller1129]

Pretty simply. Just a long daily commute. Not much else to say.

[@orcahang21]

Good 👍 ASS job Brudda ✌.

I got a g37 with 212,000 miles wanna review it ? 😂

[@josedusol]

"still looks decently modern"??... dude, it has that notorious bullet shape, just like the 8th gen (and even more refined i would say). A more JDM style. At least that generations can be identified by something. Now, look at the new gen civics with that bigger more american front end, they look so fucking generic. Wtf they where thinking?, really they look like an american product. And they are larger, it is like the new civic is an accord and the new accord is like an executive boring sedane for old people. Also, this probably one of the most (if not the most) realiable generations. The new honda products with turbo had severe problems, also related CVTs sucks.
