Common issues to look for when buying a 6th Gen Civic

Here is a list of things to look out for when you either own or are planning to buy a 6thgen civic (1996-2000).
  • Engine overheating - The D-series Engine in these cars do have a headgasket breach issue, that is continued to the 7th gen cars...
Check this link for more information on headgasket and how to diagnose them
  • No spark - typically, it's the distributor cap (Dizzy) cracked. Check for it
Intention is to add more items as we remember them.
Feel free to suggest additions too, we will update the first post to collect the issues
