Re: CVT Whine))))))))Fluid change & Stuff

Common now....I don't know what to do anymore. I had the CTV oil changed at 50 000 Kilometers and I am currently at 95 000 KM. Do you guys think it is worth it to do it again at 100 000 km or just 150 000km? I don't want anybody to mess up my car good....

Re: Horrible Gas Mileage

I do 95% of my driving in the city and I average around 18 MPG. It has been like that since I had the car....I often get 28-29 MPG when I go back home (highway only).

PS I only put the AWD on when there is snow or a LOT of rain.

Re: Engine loses power while driving

It did that once with my previous A4 (only 110 000 km) and it was the fuel pump that went out.....but it happened once and I could not start the car afterward. Maybe yours is defective or something? Please guys don't laugh at me lol I know basically nothing about cars, but just sharing my experience...

Re: New Kizi tons of small problem :(. I don't like the car anymore

Dod you know if they checked the engine mount by any chance? A guy in my area was experiencing shaking at idle and It was the engine mount bracket that was loose or something like that. It surprises me the mechanics cannot find the issue...especially considering there is a lot of ''shaking'' in gene...

Re: Kizashi from New Zealand

Welcome to the forum! Your Kiz looks pretty neat. I like the wheels. My sister-in-law lived for 4 years in New Zealand and she just got back 6 months ago. It seems like a very nice place to live!

Re: Honda Accord Sport Kizashi Comparo

Thanks for the input! I thought about the Accord in 2012, but no AWD option. I don't mind the look of the new ones especially with the 19 rims, but I personally do not like the rear end and the front grill. I don't know why specifically, but it looks a little bit like a Crosstour which is not good I...

Re: Kizashi S AWD Snow letdown.

I agree the Kizashi has super low ground clearance especially on the sport models and I know they were not designed to plow through 8" of snow, but I kind of disagree with the comment ''That AWD drive badge on the trunk still makes me feel a bit filthy every time I see it''. I am personally so ...

Re: Kizashi S AWD Snow letdown.

That's very interesting. I never had that ''overheating'' message and I plowed through a good 10 big storms with a good 25-30 cm of snow without any issue. I don't know what the issue is, but it is definitely not normal as 8 inchs/20 cm of snow is not much. I actually had prepared my camera last wee...
