1998 Honda Civic CX from North America - Comments

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Oxygen sensor at 80 000 KM - $350 CAD.

Trunk gasket preventing rain water from getting into the trunk - 30 000 KM - Replaced under the warranty. I heard it is typical problem for a hatchback.

General comments?

Good and affordable commuter. Seat is little harsh on my back (could be just me).

Great engine and transmission, sporty suspension. Handling is crisp and predictable.

Gas consumption is really nice, good bonus with today's gas prices.

Interior materials are OK for the price - not the best, but also there is no cheap feel inside..

1, primary oxygen sensor was replaced at 173,000 KM, part price = CAD 235.00, labor fee = CAD 140.00 (excl. TAX)

2, 2 weeks later, the engine check light turns up again, checked again, say: catalator-convert shall be replaced, quote = CAD 1,000.00, very expensive, but I suppose the secondary oxygen sensor is out of work. Since the only the sensoe will make the engine check lights up.
