About the Civic
The iconic Civic first made its debut in 1972. Since then, there have been a total of 11 generations to be released. The latest of these first hit the markets in 2021.
As a testament to its legendary status, It is one of the all-time best-selling cars in history. As of 2021, over 27 million models have been sold across the globe.
The model has been rebadged countless times for various markets over the years. It has also come in a huge range of body styles, with the 5-door liftback being by far the most famous of all.
In the highly competitive class, the Civic goes up against the equally-iconic Ford Focus, Volkswagen Golf, and Opel Astra.
One of the most common problems owners have encountered is P0420, which indicates a problem with the catalytic converter.
On older models, the most common cause of this issue is a failed catalytic converter. This usually comes as a result of the converter reaching its lifespan. Other issues can include exhaust leaks upstream of the converter.
Fault code P0128 is another problem that Civic owners have encountered fairly commonly. This code indicates that the engine coolant is not reaching its desired temperature.
One of the most common causes of this code is a faulty thermostat. Owners have found his cheap fix is one of the most effective solutions.
Another common issue is fault code P0497, which indicates that there is a problem with the purge flow in the EVAP system.
Owners have reported that the purge control valve is susceptible to clogging and other issues that can cause this issue. This means that it, along with any other faulty components in the EVAP system, needs to be replaced.
