I've had my civic for 3 weeks now. Love the car but find the economy isn't as great as I was expecting. So for background to my question at the end, I also have a remapped Skoda Octavia 1.6tdi that's running similar power to the civic between 140 to 150bhp and that has same fuel tank size etc...

Just wondering about the heat shields, mine was rattling a few months ago and a few people including a mechanic friend said just to pull it off, googled it to see about effects of doing that, mpg drop was one. On average I’m losing about 10mpg, used to get roughly 48-50mpg (my trip resets after...

Hi guys, I joined today, though I have been following threads for a long time when planning to buy a 8th gen Civic. Nice to meet you all, it's great to have such a friendly place to discuss and solve problems. You're like family, really excited to see grown man talk and proffessional attitude in...

Hi all me and my wife both have Honda civics one is a 2006 cdti with 190k miles and the other 2009 cdti with 97k miles. I used to own the 2006 one but gave to my wife after her Nissan basically fell apart, so I bought myself another. I have owned the newer one for about 4 years. both have never...

Hi guys, Since I bought my 2007 FN2 GT, I noticed that the external temperature gauge has displayed no reading whatsoever....I've also noticed that my average MPG is 22!! Whilst I'm aware that the car can be pretty thirsty, I'd still expect a bit more than that from it, or I am wrong? I drive...

Hi guys, I own a 2007 2.2 i-CTDi Civic with 215.000 km's (=135.000 miles) on the clock. I reach an average fuel consumption of 7.4 l/100km's (= 38 MPG), while driving city+highway. A year ago, I had some troubles with my DPF (engine management light came on a few times, oil level rising etc)...

I have a daily commute of 70mi between Manchester and Telford. This works out at about 35,000mi a year in my 2.2 i-CTDi diesel. I've heard various thoughts on fuel economy, but does anyone have a view on the optimum speed for fuel efficiency?

Hi, My first post! I'm due to purchase a Honda Civic 2007-2008 model. I'm looking for a 1.8 petrol engine, but I'm confused with the mpg. I drive normal and am coming from a seat Leon 1.9 diesel. Although I can appreciate it won't be as good on fuel, I really want the Honda experience. Any...

Ladies and gentlemen. I made a mistake. I'm sorry. But the first step is admitting you've done wrong. I used to have a Honda Civic type s GT 2.2 and it was fully loaded... It had a reversing camera!!! I loved it. Up until a defender rammed me up the chuff coming off a slip road on the m40...

Hi people i need some help, my 09 civic type s has gradually lost MPG over the last month or so, ever since i got it back from a full service and mot, i drive low miles to work and back but i would still be getting high 40s and higher dependant on how i drove, and then on longer trips it would...

Iv not had my 07 Civic long, and have been trying to get the best MPG from it from day one, and of course have been watching them green L.E.Ds all the time trying to get the sweet spot. I do a combination of around town driving, and some longer journeys 80% town, 20% longer runs of up to 60mph...

Hi, I've just driven back from Stirling in Scotland to Whitchurch in Shropshire after collecting my ex demo 1.6 ES Civic with 4.5k miles on the clock. Before leaving Stirling I asked the Honda dealer to reset the average MPG back to nil on both Trips 'A' and 'B' as I was really keen to see...

Hi guys! My local tuner could finally give me a EGR removal software. First impressions... WOW! What a difference! Especially the fuel consumtion has improved significantly. My question is. Do I also have to block off the EGR valve with a blanking plate or something? If I remember correctly...

Not sure if this is outside of my control, but recently (weeks maybe months) my i-shift's mpg is taken a nosedive. I commute 250 miles a week and have noticed that I'm using more fuel each week with a similar driving style. It's down about 5+ mpg on a 1.8 i-shift Things I've checked... Driving...

Hi All. I never thought id ever be one to consider a remap (always thought it was a boyracer thing) but looking at the changes you can get to your car , maybe I should consider it.. ANyway - the reason Im writing in, is that there appears to be 3 main options open ... 1) Do nothing - use...

Hi all new to the site as of today and have a question on remaps. i recently treated myself to a 2.2ctdi 2006 civic ex with 73000miles. love the car to bits and keep seeing posts about remaps improving fuel economy and obviously power. My main questions are: 1) What sort of gains would i...

Hi! I've been contemplating it for a while and with the 4 years 0% and 4 Years servicing offer on a 1.4 type S 3dr I'm seriously considering just going for it but I have some questions I would like to ask you knowledgeable folks :) 1) What actual average mpg can I expect to get from the 1.4...

Hi, This is my first post, I have recently bought a manual 2005 CR-V 2.0i Sport, and I am confused by the economy meter and average fuel consumption reading. On my first tank full of petrol I noticed that the bar graph would go fully to the right if I was going a constant speed, but shrink to...

Hey Guys, I know, I know, this will have been asked before but for the life of me I can't find any threads on it. What can I realistically expect to get MPG wise for a 1.8 type S and how does this fair in comparison to the 2.2? I'm trying to figure out, all things considered, if it will be...
