Re: Variable Valve Timing

LPSISRL I think is right...except it does matter on the year of the car. There's vtec (which was originally out more in i think the 90s cars) and the newer civics use what they call "IVTEC" which is slightly different. The original vtec I know works off like he said oil pressure...once the...

I know this is an old thread but today I noticed a couple drips of water coming in while in the car wash near the back corner above the passenger looking at it from outside looks like.the seal isn't as fat there or touching the body as much as the other side.

Re: Question about steering wheel lock

Twice. When looking in manual it says that on the guage cluster that the steering wheel light will illuminate until vehicle is turned over...so guessing maybe it doesn't loosen wheel until vehicle is on? Since that light means.that the wheel is locked.or issue with it when on while driving
