If this is true you are very lucky indeed, if it were at my old dealer one look and we'd price you up on the cost of replacement instead of a warranty jobQuote:

I think you should stop bagging Honda as you are clearly at fault and your story is very one sided. Look around and see how many fd civics there are on the road, yet its only your motor thats blown. It has to tell you something.
I agree with you. i knew my chances were slim when claiming but i accepted that it was my fault. it was only a bonus that they covered it. thats not to say they were all smiles when doing it either.Quote:

I read his old posting about how proud he was owning honda. He even went through great effort putting sound deadening and all sort of other stuff on his car.
Truly enthusiast :thumbsup:
It's tough luck to get an engine blow up. It really really really really is.
After reading this thread, I have no idea what it is all about.
From my point of view, it's better to make the most of what you have now.
I believe one or two thing can be done with the car. The whole car is fine, apart from blow up engine and few scratches. The scrathes are not biggi really. You can drive the car with them ;), can't you?
About the engine. Is it 100% unrepairable? I believe there is a lot of expert in this forum who can offer their advice and opinion. Can the piston be replaced?, how about the block? It may work out cheaper to repair it, rather than getting new one.
So think about a new chapter of your car :)
This is my opinion, but feel free to pursuit Honda for fixing it up.
yes. im not angry about this anymore. so over it. its time to move on. time to get the R i'd always wanted...Quote:

well ive already learned that this is all just a phase i have to go through in life. SXXT happens.
and the engine its probably a write off. i don't know for sure what happened and what parts from the engine are missing.since honda didn't even bother telling me what they removed from my engine.
ive had mecahnics looked at it and it would probably be cheaper to replace it then to fix it.
i thought u hated honda and you said you'd never drive another one again.
