Hi guys,

I'm looking to purchase a Honda Civic roughly about 2008-2009.

I've done some research online and reports have suggested engine block cracking , interior rattling and clear coat failure as most common faults.

Not too concerned about the last two but the engine block cracking doesn't sound comforting to say the least.

Could any owners add to this list of common faults with Civic and things to look for when buying privately/from a dealership?

Thanks!
