1998 Honda Civic Si review from North America
"Great Car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing major has happened to my car. I maintained it well by changing my water pump and timing belt everyone 100,000km. Which wasn't too expensive. There was a point where my engine light would turn on suddenly. But I left it for a few days and it turned off itself. Now its been running problem free for a few months. oil change here and there.
General comments?
I'm not a car guy. I hate cars. But what can I do, I need a car so I can go to work. Car is not the best performer, not the fastest or smoothest. But offers great fuel efficiency and reliability. That's all I need. A car that doesn't break down and leave me stranded. I will get another one for sure.
