hi Guys,

as the title states a proud owner of a civic tourer 1.6 diesel from 2104 twilight blue.

A couple of questions:

my reversing camera is only working very intermittently, any ideas?

I dont have a manual for the car, is it worth buying one of ebay?

My alloys are already starting to corrode, Honda seem especially bad for this, thoughts? Ideas to hault this?

What do people thing the longevity of this engine is?

Graham.

Hi Graham,

Welcome to the Forum.. I have the 5 Door Hatch in the same colour as yours.

The manual is on here somewhere but you'll need to have a dig for it.

Mine is a 2015 and have 74K+ mile on the clock. Been very reliable so far. Do all of my own servicing and more often that Honda would suggest. My previous 8G 2.2 Civic was still going strong at 157K when I traded it in. Engine was great but AC, Clutch and Inlet Manifold had gone..

You can grab the manual here:

I've also got a seperate "Honda Share" which has most of the service manual documents in it - Check out my post history

Welcome to the forum.
The Honda Connect system had quite a few bugs initially, mostly fixed by the latest updates. One of the symptoms was reverse camera funnies- pink screen , which on my Civic were fixed by the RC6 update, latest level is I think RC8.

Possibly your car hasn't had the updates ?

thanks guys, sorry for the delayed response. My camera starting working better, now it isnt again, ive learnt how to force it on, so that'll do for now.
