1994 Honda Civic esi from UK and Ireland - Comments

Nothing it just go and gos.

I wich I brought one sooner it allways put a smile on my face.

Yer the car is fast when pushed.

When I took it on a race track it done 130mph flat out so for a standard, 1600 16v is good (threes not Marney 1600 what can do that.

People say Honda is Overrated I don't thick so try leaving with a Carlton or a 306 that's what I call rubbish. AND YES I HAVE I HAD BOTH AND OTHER CARS.

Hi there.

I have got something not right with this car now.

When you start the car, there's a rattle coming from the engine, but when it is hot you don't hear it.

Any one know what this is?

Try the esi's bigger brother the Vti; now that's a quick car for a 1.6 liter. It has been taken off the clock at 145mph, but I don't think its accurate, though.

The rattle is likely the exhaust manifold heat shield, which is made of thin aluminum. Over time, the aluminum gets a few cracks or loosens from the cast iron manifolds. So it will rattle until the car warms up. Not a big deal, and trust me- every Japanese car I've owned did this. Won't hurt a thing.

I took it to the garage and got it checked out; you were spot on.

Thank you.
