@isays depends on the car, my old 2009 300C simply started by putting the ket in the ignition & giving it a quick turn to the start position & immediately letting go.
@canthony1019 wierd... what if you have to crank it for a while? did it just know to keep cranking until it started, or did it just crank for a preset amount of time?
@isays computer in the car keeps starter solenoid powered on & cranking until rpm's meet set level somewhere around the 400-450 range & motor is powered under it's own load. or until switch is turned to off while doing so.
i could keep it held but that would be pointless & most cars made after 2004 have fail safe solenoids in place that open once the motor is turning under it's own load so you don't energize the starter motor and strip off the gear teeth while it's running.
yes, good ol Honda quality, fired up perfectly fine, as they do...Only reason it didnt start right the first time is because the idiot behind the wheel didnt hold the key in the start position long enough, so the engine barely even had a chance to properly crank over.
@blazzing4321 hondas are really reliable just learn how to take care of one and before you trash talk look up your information before you look stupid alright?
@blazzing4321 your funny kid hondas are about one of the most reliable cars in the market these days and japan makes mostly the stuff that is imported to the U.S. go back to your gay ass muscle cars....
@blazzing4321 really.....you have to do some serious amount of research then......do you know that Hondas are more reliable then toyotas these days!!!!!
@walkingfreak my mustang was made in america, as well as most/ all of the newer ones( to my knowledge at least) The only 2 assembly plants for civics are brazil and canada.
@admiraljimmy actually dude sorry to burst your bubble, very few "american cars are actually made in america these days. Most of them are made in mexico, and most of honda's are made in the united states
@willowcairns Actually dude I know where most cars are made, I get 'em brand spankin new with the shipping tags working from hertz dude, and dude you can like totally look it up on the internet dude and see where civics are like totally produced. And like totally my awesome dude mustang was like totally made right here in the U.S. totally dude. But on a serious note a lot of American cars are made in mexico and canada. But not all imports are made in America. You wont win this DUDE.
@admiraljimmy If you could read, show me where i stated that all imports are make in america? I said most hondas are made in the united states, as in 85 percent of them are. I never said that every single one is made in the united states. I searched that internet and i found that civic are produced in Ohio
@willowcairns When did I say you said that? I was stating a fact, I know that's hard to comprehend with the tiny IQ you seem to have. That's pretty cool though, all mine come off the ships in Charleston, and a trucked to me with shipping stickers from brazil though. Haven't seen one from ohio yet, I'll have to keep an eye out.
@admiraljimmy Well you never actually got my full thoughts on cars. Its a fact that imports make the better cars. They may not be the most powerful cars but they are more reliable and last longer. Of course any car can last well over 200,000 miles if they are taken care of. Ford makes the best american cars on the road today, they have really become a better company and are producing more reliable cars then in their past. On a side note every company has manufacturing plants all over the world
@admiraljimmy i am just stating a fact that more cars are made in america by Honda then by most american cars are. I should of made myself more clear in my first post. What mustang do you have? the 2011's are really nice and i would love to have a 5.0
@quatroportte A stick-shift requires constant attention to hill grade, engine speed, and a host of other things. It keeps you alert, since falling asleep at the wheel is much harder to do in a standard, than an automatic, where you're basically meat in the seat. Acceleration is much better in a manual, so is winter driving. Even the gearbox is less sensitive to ever-so-slight variations in the transmission fluid in a stick-shift. Have you ever driven stick?
i own a manual 1993 bmw 318i and a honda CRV 2005 both manual and both gay.The honda's transmission is a joke,i have to grind the clutch to get it going.
i had a 95 mazda mpv that was automatic and it's a whole different story.
About the sleeping part...i can start with the crv in 3rd gear and keep it there till 140kmh(diesel) i dont have to change for a long time,same as auto.
the real question is.Did you ever drive automatic?
I drove a 2009 Honda CIVIC type R and the gearbox was manual and it was really smooth,i liked that but the thing is that only high spec cars have good manual transmissions
@781edawg this car is NOT a Civic Si. It will be a major insult to Si owners if this is. I have a Civic Si (which is, by the way, a LOT more nicer than this one) so 15432Joce is right... automatic SUCKS!
This is normal for the newer Hondas. If you look in the owners manual or "quick start" guide there's probably a note somewhere. Something about reducing emissions at start-up.
My dad almost bought an 06 civic LX and whenever we went to go for the test drive (only me and him) The car was cranking like crazy for like 10 seconds.
naw thats just natrual for these civics they just crank weird, but 10 seconds its a little extremem you just have to get used to it, but for this guys problem, check battery or clean terminals....
Well for a brand new car I don't think it's maybe for an older car okay. Battery on this guy car should be fine cause he did the video in 2007 and the car is a 2008 so it should be fine.
I'm sure it's the key because of how the transmitter is place in the key. Cause a key without a transmitter will let you crank the car but won't start so if the car as a hard time reading the transmitter it will crank 'till he can read it completly. But except that the car is fun to drive but my dad didn't get it cause they didn't give enough for his escape.
Wow,,, Do you know anything about cars....you should allow the computer to gather data from all the senors or you just have a very cheap battery that have very low CCA. Plus It very normal for the car to idle at 1500... It call cold idle were the car need to warm up..... ^_^
computer don't need to warm up, anyone tell you that juss bulls***t you , if your car does not start , its propably a key issue or antitheft problem that cut fuelpump or just won't let the car start , your dealer tell you just see exit with a smile and nor a 100 $ bill ... Honda car are not the GOD car , thay have lot of problem too
wow yeah it makes perfect sense to believe you more than a dealer's technicians who have actually worked with Honda's before. From what I can tell, you can't even write English correctly so I'll just stick to my dealer's advice
keep wasting your money to your dealer with WARMING UP COMPUTER ... ITS NOT A ENGINE ITS A COMPUTER do you warm up your PC before start them ... i hope you will pay 2000 $ each year in repair with this kind of stupid information , warming up computer , warming up your seat belt before seat down ... a** hole
and don't forget before start turn half the key , open the close the door 3 time , clap your hand , press the hazards button , say I LOVE HONDA and then it will start ;) its 100 $ for the repair advice ;)
You dont know what your talking about ! You want your computer as hot as possible i hard wired a soldering iron to my computer for those cold morning. Check your blinker fluid and make sure your muffler bearings are properly lubed. The radio on the other hand should be preheated in a 450 degree for 10-15 minutes before using it, 20-30 minutes if you are playing classical or easy listening. dont forget to rotate your spark plugs every hour of driving.
a car that doesnt even come stock with a tac kind of bothers me, i doesnt prove to me that hondas are built for speed haha but if a honda can run a 7 sec qtr, then i will give it respect,
I heard that the accord can have a hard start because of the immobilizer. I don't know if it could be the same problem as yours. All because of the key.
fwd 4 cyl wont do 7 second quater mile you dumbass, holy fuck lol there was a suped up turbo front wheel drive crx, tube frame and everything, it was running 10-13's it beat a mustang then lost horribly to a camaro. trust me honda's arent that great. audi and chevy are much better, not as 1 dimesional aswell
to bad hondas are for old ladies. they dont drag, they dont drift, they dont haul or 4x4, they dont really do anything cool, well there cheap to drive so if you have no soul about vehicle buying then honda works for you.
4x4 + v8 are sweet, there not failed white kid cars that like honda because its cheap on gas. Honda is a trashy brand of vehicle, they suck compared to nissan, mazda, audi and of those other cars are better. Honda makes shit 4x4 vehicles and you no it... well shitty vehicles period ( no offensece to guy who made the video )
hmm my 94 blazer has 240,000 miles and we've only replaced the 50 doller water pump.. dam your right they do suck, and jeez it has 4x4 and a v8, why didn't i buy a honda
We have had very good luck w/ American cars. My 94 Ranger has 153,000 miles on it, no problems, 2000 Dodge Dakota, 116,000 miles, not a single problem, 2005 Ford Freestyle, 62,000 miles, no problems
the engine will die out if it half starts. especially when cold. you have to wait until all 4 cylenders are firing. geez why do so many ppl have trouble starting their cars.
I forgot to mention...i had a Chevy S10 that also blew a tranny at 85K. I never towed with the truck either. Just one day...bam. No OD, then shakey 2nd gear. Then no gears. Its sad when you try to buy American to support your country, and terrible, terrible things happen to them.
I've owned a Pontiac Grand Am, a Chevy Lumina, and a Cavalier that all had either massive tranny or engine problems, and i baby my cars. Makes me ashamed of American built cars.
1) your english sucks. 2) japan only allows american made cars if theyre slapped with a huge terrif. 3) yes, ive driven a honda it had barely any power. my aunt had a honda and the thing was less than a year old and rattled everywhere. and gas mileage? my buick regal gets 33 mpg highway and has twice the space of a honda civic or toyota camry.
hondas suck. they have so many problems yet people still consider them so reliable. buy an american car. honestly, there is hardly any difference in quality if the cost is below 30k. if america loses GM and other big names it will be deadly. also, japan doesnt allow american made cars in their country. so while people worship honda the japanese only buy their cars while we pour in money to them too.
This comment is so beyond logical thinking it's ridiculous, of course Japan imports American cars, and yes we should buy American cars as I just got laid off yesterday because of troubles at GM, but be fair, Honda as a manufacturer makes very solid vehicles, They don't have very many problems at all and they last a very long time, most of the time the engine will actually outlast the body, I own a 2002 Mustang GT and a 1995 Honda Civic
1)your english is terrible. 2) your fucking stupid if you think american cars are unreliable, stop living in the 80s. my car and my familys cars never have problems, including my dads chrystler that had close to 300 thousand miles on it. 3) GM has nice looking cars and not all of them are trucks and SUVs. toyota and honda have trucks and SUVs as well do they not? 4) yes, ive driven hondas, they have little power and suck. 5) my buick regal has no problem in the winter at all, curtisy of detroit
whattt the crx is just light. they get owned all the time. and no, my regal is an 02. not the 80s kind. so its not really gangsta... but the reason these companies are in such bad shape is because they pay their workers health benefits, adding more to their cost and theyre stereoyped as being bad on fuel economy. GM is bad, but companies like chevy and saturn have very good cars. the public just thinks that only japan has fuel efficient cars, even though gas has dropped considerably. only $1.80
i will buy honda in 3 months, but i dont know if i still want it. The SI has 3rd gear transmission problem and the automatic has problem on turning the engine on. does any one having problem on their honda? reply pls
the 3rd gear problem was fixed ages ago. and this civic doesn't look like it has a starting problem its the guy turning the key. all of the newer hondas you have to hold down the key a little bit longer than the old ones because all of the new ones have some technology that doesn't waste too much gas when you turn on the engine. i would hold down the ignition half a second longer any day than waste gas every time i start my car
you didn't hold the key down long enough, all newer hondas have some kinda emissions control system when the engine is turned on. so you don't waste more gas than needed to start your engine but the only downside is you have to hold it there for a little bit, small downside if it saves you a penny or 2 every time you start your engine
Well, Hondas generally are reliable cars but I've had some bad ones in the past but they kept on going and going even with problems. I had a 1983 Honda Civic wagon with 214,583 miles on it and I totalled that thing. I currently have a 2000 Honda Civic EX coupe and it hasn't died on me, except the battery failed because it was so old. It's a very reliable car. Try getting a 1997 Chevy Calivier and come back to me later.
I have 2 honda pilot from 2003 and 2005 and a 2008 civic and all of them works great ,not even one problem in 130.000 miles . The engine still smells like new after 8 years .
hey I had an 06 civic si and that thing was the a piece of shit...it had to have a 3 brand new engines put in it from the dealership. the first time it broke down at 4500 miles....it was a complete mess ppl from honda hq came out....It would breakdown like every 5000 miles....I think I had 22,000 mile on it when I got rid of that nightmare.....no civics never again!.....but new Accord is the shit! fosho =D
Just shows how overrated and undeservly loved Honda is , they are horrible . Why is peple like Honda when they are so extremly bad ? I would never buy a Honda because of this engine problems and the new Accord and CrapVic are extremly cramped too , so cramped that won`t even fit inside them , neighter in the front or the back .
when i pick mine at the dealer it happened to me too ... but the salesman just moved the wheel a lil hard n it kinda unmlocked ..... after that i could start it normally n never had that problem again .... except one time when i shut the engine down in drive :D
....that can define some things and prolong ownership satisfaction....but poor engineering, lack of world-class build quality and low pride in manufacturing is not something you can change by treating the car with t.l.c.
Honda and Toyota are the most reliable cars in the world. Why do you think MOST Americans end up buying Asian cars over Americans? Because asian cars are reliable and looks great. Americans cars are crappy, sorry but its the truth.
agreed.....and who cares where the damn thing is made....you want a great camera..japan....great washing machine...usa.....just research it and make the smart purchase..and dont worry about the flag syndrome...
It started gracefully.

You dont know what your talking about ! You want your computer as hot as possible i hard wired a soldering iron to my computer for those cold morning. Check your blinker fluid and make sure your muffler bearings are properly lubed. The radio on the other hand should be preheated in a 450 degree for 10-15 minutes before using it, 20-30 minutes if you are playing classical or easy listening. dont forget to rotate your spark plugs every hour of driving.

a car that doesnt even come stock with a tac kind of bothers me, i doesnt prove to me that hondas are built for speed haha but if a honda can run a 7 sec qtr, then i will give it respect,
that takes a ton of work!

before 2000 a lot of cars didnt have tac. Nissan sentra, some honda, some ford focus.. who cares? They are not built for speed.

to bad hondas are for old ladies. they dont drag, they dont drift, they dont haul or 4x4, they dont really do anything cool, well there cheap to drive so if you have no soul about vehicle buying then honda works for you.

4x4 + v8 are sweet, there not failed white kid cars that like honda because its cheap on gas. Honda is a trashy brand of vehicle, they suck compared to nissan, mazda, audi and of those other cars are better.

hondas suck. they have so many problems yet people still consider them so reliable. buy an american car. honestly, there is hardly any difference in quality if the cost is below 30k. if america loses GM and other big names it will be deadly. also, japan doesnt allow american made cars in their country. so while people worship honda the japanese only buy their cars while we pour in money to them too.

This comment is so beyond logical thinking it's ridiculous, of course Japan imports American cars, and yes we should buy American cars as I just got laid off yesterday because of troubles at GM, but be fair, Honda as a manufacturer makes very solid vehicles, They don't have very many problems at all and they last a very long time, most of the time the engine will actually outlast the body, I own a 2002 Mustang GT and a 1995 Honda Civic

1) You can buy american cars in Japan. Japan has a free market!
2) Just like in Europe, there is not very much will to buy a unsafe, tursty ugly much to big american GM car in Japan
3) Have you actually drived a Honda once?
11 years, not a single problem.

1)your english is terrible. 2) your fucking stupid if you think american cars are unreliable, stop living in the 80s. my car and my familys cars never have problems, including my dads chrystler that had close to 300 thousand miles on it. 3) GM has nice looking cars and not all of them are trucks and SUVs. toyota and honda have trucks and SUVs as well do they not? 4) yes, ive driven hondas, they have little power and suck. 5) my buick regal has no problem in the winter at all, curtisy of detroit
elementskaterxl 3 years ago
1) Maybe I don't live in an Engish speaking country? Do I expact you to speak german, dutch or french fluent? Pax america patriot.
2)Maybe not that much unreliable as they once where, but it would surprise me if an american car could level the quality of a Honda.
3) GM is about to go banruptcy and with reason if you ask me.
4) Honda is the Power of dream. Buy their CRX if you want power. But for a responsible driver, my 66kw Civic is fine to me.
5) Buick Regal? The ultimat gangsta car...
FrightfulAccountant 3 years ago
whattt the crx is just light. they get owned all the time. and no, my regal is an 02. not the 80s kind. so its not really gangsta... but the reason these companies are in such bad shape is because they pay their workers health benefits, adding more to their cost and theyre stereoyped as being bad on fuel economy. GM is bad, but companies like chevy and saturn have very good cars. the public just thinks that only japan has fuel efficient cars, even though gas has dropped considerably. only $1.80

Problem in Europe with american cars, is the are just not addapted to our roads...
American roads are straight. Is not really a problem then to have a very large powerful czr then.
However, with the many mediaval based roads in europe, you are beter with a light manouvable car.
Yes an American car has a strong chassis and rather simple mecanics. I believe those elements are essential for an american car.
Their look is a matter of taste...
Guess lots depends on what you expact of a car...

k00lball3r 3 years ago
the 3rd gear problem was fixed ages ago. and this civic doesn't look like it has a starting problem its the guy turning the key. all of the newer hondas you have to hold down the key a little bit longer than the old ones because all of the new ones have some technology that doesn't waste too much gas when you turn on the engine. i would hold down the ignition half a second longer any day than waste gas every time i start my car
mailme08401 3 years ago
you didn't hold the key down long enough, all newer hondas have some kinda emissions control system when the engine is turned on. so you don't waste more gas than needed to start your engine but the only downside is you have to hold it there for a little bit, small downside if it saves you a penny or 2 every time you start your engine
mailme08401 3 years ago
Well, Hondas generally are reliable cars but I've had some bad ones in the past but they kept on going and going even with problems. I had a 1983 Honda Civic wagon with 214,583 miles on it and I totalled that thing. I currently have a 2000 Honda Civic EX coupe and it hasn't died on me, except the battery failed because it was so old. It's a very reliable car. Try getting a 1997 Chevy Calivier and come back to me later.
