So I tried to fit a new one today and it appears the aftermarket aerial and mast I purchased has a retaining sleeve in it, although when I removed my old aerial and mast, there was no retaining...

Thanks for the responses. I'll undo the retaining nut to see if I can remove the mast and rope without removing the whole unit.

Hi all,

Im trying to replace the electric aerial after it got bent. It doesnt retract fully down due to a kink in the aerial.

Ive picked up another mast and rope, although to remove the...

Hi all,

I have the SRS light constantly on in my EK Civic.
All signs point to the clock spring being faulty.

When the SRS system is not working, does it mean the horn doesnt work as well, or...

If its a VTI, it would be the CVT. SO it wont be as straight forward as putting a 4 speed automatic in.
Drive it till it dies and in the meantime save up for a new car.

$2k odd for a working CVT...

Put a CD player in and while I was doing that discovered that there was a aftermarket alarm.

I had no remotes or key to disable the siren so it started going off as soon as I unplugged it.
Had...

Hi everyone

Just purchased a EK sedan as a runabout.

The rear door locks do not lock or unlock with the drivers door. The passenger door locks and unlocks so I can assume the drivers switch is...

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know if a 4 speed auto swap into a CVT transmission VTI sedan is straighforward and possible? Looking to buy a VTI with stuffed CVT although want to keep it auto as its...

Im hoping its not connected in properly. Only reason I say that is may not be connected is the clutch was changed a couple of days ago. I havent driven it much since then.

Hi everyone,

Is the speedo sensor on the gearbox somewhere on a 1.6lt EK Civic? The speedo is jumping up and down and I think the VSS wasnt put in properly when it was hooked back up after a...

When I got my 96 Civic key cut, I took it to my local locksmith (Buffalo locksmith in Ryde) and they put the key in a scanning machine which read the immobiliser code, then they placed the new one in...

Either the previous owner didnt change the clutch or someone has a bad driving style.

Im 99.9% certain my clutch is the factory one and my car has ticked over 150,000kms. Its feels like its on the...

Or installdr has a guide, its just that everything is reversed due to being based on the US model.

If its standard, just get the OEM ones!

If it aint slipping, dont replace it yet. Unless you are wanting to put a heavy duty one in. When I got my car, I thought the clutch would need replacing, but 50,000kms later its still ok (probably...

Have you had the car since new? Seems a bit odd as all GLI's Ive seen have a tacho in them.

Done before, straight plug in and the tacho works.

I get the same noise from my clutch. Havent really diagnosed the problem, but its been in the car ever since Ive owned it (approx 4 years).

Someone told me to grease up the clutch fork, but hey...

You need the metal filter dont you or else the fuel lines will not screw up to the filter?

Yeah the crush washers were replaced. Originally thought I might have got **** crush washers, so I tried the old ones with the same result (fuel pissing out of the filter), but put the new washers...

Hey everyone,

Got around to replacing the fuel filter on the EK today, although one thing that suprised me was how hard the top bolt needed to be screwed in, or else fuel would leak out.

Has...

DIY guide? Man its not that hard. Maybe when I get around to doing mine, I'll take some happy snaps.

About time I did mine too, the faded paint off the wiper has shit me ever since I got the car...

The speakers are 6x9's, for the hatch and sedans.

Are you sure you've got the fuel low enough for the light to come on?

As for the door open light, I think its only wired up to show if the hatch is open and not the doors. Unless you have an...

For a standard Civic, and even one with a few mods, drums on the rear will make jack all difference.

That said though, the power windows are good to have :thumbsup:
