Hi All,

Is there a way to check your exact Honda Civic Model? I know mine is an LX but how do you know if its got ABS, SAB and all those other variants.

I tried entereing my VIN at https://estore.honda.com/honda/parts...ehicle-vin.asp but they don't know.

Thank you!

Kinda broken down like this (at least with regards to the 7thgen):

DX (2001-2005, available in coupe and sedan only)

• 1.7L SOHC non-VTEC engine (D17A1 -- 117HP)
• Manual windows
• Manual side view mirrors
• Manual Locks
• No tach (IIRC)
• No A/C
• AM/FM radio
• 14" steel wheels with 185/70R14 tires

LX (2001-2005,available in coupe and sedan only; same features as DX with the following upgrades)

• Power Windows
• Power side view mirrors
• Power Locks
• Tach
• A/C
• Cruise control
• AM/FM/Cassette radio

EX (2001-2005,available in coupe and sedan only; same features as LX with the following upgrades)

• 1.7L SOHC VTEC engine (D17A2 -- 127HP)
• Moonroof
• ABS
• Variable intermittent wipers
• Remote keyless entry
• Height adjustable driver's seat
• AM/FM/CD player
• 15" steel wheels (2003+ came with alloy rims) with 185/65R15 tires

Si (2002-2005, available in hatchback only; same features as the EX with the following upgrades)

• 2.0L DOHC iVTEC engine (K20A3 -- 160HP)
• 5-speed manual transmission only
• 4-wheel disk brakes
• Leather wrapped steering wheel
• Rear wiper/washer (because hatchback)
• Sport suspension
• 15" alloy rims with 195/60R15 tires

Those are the big differences. There were also factory options, but this comparison is for standard equipment. There are also differences in transmissions between the DX/LX, EX, and Si, but I won't get into that, either.


To ultimately answer your question.. Only fancy features your car should have over the DX (assuming standard equipment and completely stock): power windows, locks, and mirrors, A/C, and cruise control.

The Si has a 5 speed transmission.

Well, ****, you're right. Got so used to associating the K20 with a 6-speed. lol

There's also the "Special Edition" (up here in Canada at least)
I have one and it's a DX with A/C, power locks, tach, and CD player. No ABS and mine's an auto.

yeah, there's also the HX and VP, but I didn't feel like getting into that. lol. I just listed the "main" trim levels.

TBH, laziness. Did that between studying stuff for new job.

Oh ok, gotcha!

Mine is a Canadian LX 2 Door Coupe.

When I go here to get parts http://torontohondaparts.com/Categor...ookieSupport=1

It shows different "Grades" i.e "LX (ABS, AC), LX (ABS, SAB), LX (AC), LX (AC, SAB).

So mines just an LX (AC) as far as I know.

I don't think I have an ABS, since one of these https://www.varaosahaku.fi/fi-en/Sea...l/ID-30558181/ is missing on top of my "Engine Side Mounting" Part: 50827-S5A-003 but Side Airbags, I'm not sure.

Colin42

yeah if you don't see that you don't have abs
