Another part fell off my 2006 Civic!?

I dont know how you have so many problems with it.... they only problem i have is the drivers window not going up... but easily fixed.

Your car must have been built by a high thai

[denot]

high thai? or probably by some thai ladyboyz

Well said. Does anybody know when exactly they started making civics in thailand?

high thai.. thai ladyboy... they would probably have done a better job

i'm pretty sure i got the friday afternoon company-paid-lunch-break end-of-month special. at least i haven't had any window problems yet... but then again i'm too afraid to use the windows. my left ones have cobwebs on them now...

afaik the current model civic vti, vti-l and sport were always built in thailand, so from 2006 on. not sure about the previous model civic, although the jazz and accord (non-euro) are also built in thailand i think.

i too am starting to doubt it's from my car... for no good reason a while ago i took a lot of picks of the underbody of my car and everything there seems real chunky and sturdy; such a flimsy part seems really out of place.

i'll check the lawnmower tonight

i think so. looks like FD's underbody parts most are black color (non-rusty) except exhaust guard (side of exhaust).

yes civic has been sold to my dad who doesn't mind about the odd rattle or 10... sold for $25k

i30 (inc on-road costs) cost $25k

so i'm pretty happy with it no more slippery leather and single-line audio readout and having to organise another car whenever i need to transport bulky items

i would also like to say no more rattles but i really will have to wait until i've had it for a while... that said i have a new rattle from my civic's passenger seat (goes away when someone sits on it) which i'm not even gonna bother about anymore...

wow, seem FD2' price dropped a lot compare FD1 ?
35k-->25 = 28%
FD1 = 26k --. my mate sold 20k = 23%

sometimes the rattle noise from ur inside stuff, lets say, i put my baby pram always in boot, that's why, there's always rattle noise from rear seat.
or i put gps kits in glove box or sunglasses in cigarette box, and always got noise from that's sections.
and honestly, my civic never have any problems, except a funny smell sometimes when u turn on aicon, but it's happened in all countries (Sing/Thai/Ind/etc)

mate, he sell it to his dad... you dont give even 5% discount to your dad?

hahaha.. usually parents (stable economy)should buy at higher price from the kids(un-stable economy).

[chylld]

heheh well we just went by the drive.com.au / glass' guide private sale value which was $25,630... was close enough to the orc of the i30 and my dad preferred the simplicity of just swapping

dmx is ur friend's a vti or vti-l? they're $18,040 and $20,790 value respectively... so going by the same valuer they drop 21.5% compared to the sport's 20%

i forgot what i'm getting at here, just felt like crunching some numbers feels like holidays already....

yeah u can check urself at http://www.drive.com.au/buy/market_value/... however it doesn't factor in how early or late in the year it was built. e.g. the sport it says average 22k km's, mine's done closer to 30k...

and if ur still reading ads for 18k+ for 05 model then obviously they're not selling at 18k+

yeah, check with valuation tool like what u said.
but when u see in sell section, sport 19kms auto, private sell around 30k
if urs 30kms, may be around 29k, ppl bargain, may be around 27-28k ???

ideally yes... however i really really doubt any sane person would buy a civic sport for even 27k that's nearly 2 years old (only 1 year left on the warranty) when they can get a brand new one (with aux and 17" alloys) with 3 years warranty from a dealer for 32k!

the figures you get from valuation tools are only guides, i think the upper end quote of $25k for an 06 auto civic sport is already pretty high. then again if anyone you know wants a "meticulously serviced" 06 auto civic with 30k kms on the clock for $28k then pm me :P
