There is a Vehicles issues/problems forum.
The major problem in ALL civics ALL models: RATTLES from the rear deck, door panels, and trunk.
Followed by: Weak engine...
That's about it, the civic is pretty reliable imo.

The reason why all of the 2001 civics seem to have tons of problems is because they are the first model of the new generation. Never buy the first model of a car. As each year goes on more bugs are solved. Why do you think that the 2000 Si is so great. Nothing ever goes wrong with it. It is the last model with all of the imperfections worked out.

Rep Power: 369 -rattly door panels; thankfully minimal rear deck rattle (I must be the only one)
-limiter kicked in at a relatively low RPM (less than 7000) once, when I had the dealer check it out they could not find the problem. Hasn't happened since. I guess the hamster had a cold that day.

Rep Power: 0 I had a problem of a rattle that sounded like it was in the dash but took it to the dealer and they had the car for a month trying to find it. They finally found it in the driver side door panel and got it fixed. Now the dash rattles. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG] Not too bad though, only when it's really cold out. like 20 or below. Other than that, the only problems I've had, oh wait, paint chip, other than those, the only problem I've had with my civic is the dealership being a bunch of butts.

Rep Power: 349 Those who say they don't hear rattles aren't listening for them. I used to say the same thing and drove one day without a radio and heard every single one. They're not bad enought to hear with the radio on like my old Accord or my old Celica, but they're still there.

And why is the 2000 si so Perfect? It's only the second model of the Si. After just one year, all the imperfections with the 99 si were worked out and nothing ever goes wrong with it now??
