1990 Honda Civic DX from North America - Comments

Headlight needed adjustment.

Air-conditioner hoses needed replacement -- apparently because the previous owner had an accident and did not bother to get them fixed.

Minor paint blemishes needed repainting.

But the later two problems came with the car. Otherwise, absolutely no repairs were needed.

I bought this car because I had driven the same model and year for some nine years on the West Coast. During that time I paid only for the routine servicing. I never had a single repair needed -- although the cassette tape recorder reverse started to malfunction occasionally after 8 years.

Frankly I cannot say enough in favor of this car. It gets 38 mpg, is (for me) comfortable and peppy. I am only selling it because I fell in love with a Mercedes. I hope I will not regret selling it.

I am a current owner of a 1990 honda civic dx hatch back it only has 197000 on it I am very pleased with this car, but there is one thing that I have found to be wrong with these cars and all of them are the same, this problem has to deal with the rear sespension the trailing arms I have been looking for a junk car with the arm in good condition, but from 1987-1998 they all had rubber bussings in these arms and the bussings waer out fast they are very expencive to fix 700$ canadian to replace

but other than that I am very pleased with this car considering that it's an automatic with only a 1.5L engine I have had it up to 200 km\hour a lot of times

thank you for excepting my comment on this car

Hey! I'm also a Honda owner.. Mine is 1991 4 door civic

A/C was working one day next thing you know it started to blow warm air. The transmission started to die out on me on the highway. I purchased a Japanese transmission for 217.00 w/only 45k on it, but I guess my mechanic did not know what he was doing.It worked for about 2 mos. and now it won't get out of 1st gear and only moves on flatland. I had to put it on E-Bay.Man;I really love my Honda. Especially the sunroof in the summer.
