What should I look for when buying a used honda civic sport?

so, last year I decided to buy a used honda civic sport, right? I thought it’d be a smooth ride, but then I found myself staring at a car with a dent bigger than my lunchbox. you gotta check for weird sounds, like if it makes noises like a cat when you hit the gas. also, check the tires. I once bought a car with bald tires and felt like I was ice skating.

But, you should also look at the mileage. I learned the hard way that high mileage is like having a puppy that chews everything. And don’t skip the maintenance records. I bought one without looking and ended up paying for a new engine.

So, what’s your experience? any tips? I’m just trying to help ya avoid my mistakes.

I ve had my civic for years they last long if maintained properly check for rust especially in ne parts of the US.

I ve owned a used Honda Civic Sport before and it was a mixed bag honestly. Check the mileage first I bought mine at 80k and thought it was a steal but later found out it had some pesky engine issues.

Also look for signs of rust especially if you’re in the northeast. It can sneak up on ya like a raccoon at a picnic. Keep an eye out for that.

I once bought a used Civic in Toronto it was such a good price but had hidden rust underneath. I ve also seen others with great mileage but a sketchy past. Checking the service history is key so pay attention to that.

I remember when I bought my used Civic in Toronto it was a blast finding the right one. Check for rust on the body and the mileage can be tricky. I’ve heard good things about the reliability but don’t skip the test drive.

i remember my buddy in Toronto bought a used Civic Sport last summer and it was such a solid car but he had to check the mileage like a hawk found some with crazy amounts so be careful with that I ve learned the hard way about hidden accidents too

make sure the service history is clean I know this one place in Seattle that had great deals on certified used ones just look out for rust around the wheel wells

I remember when I bought my first used Honda Civic Sport in Austin Texas I didn’t check the service history at all thought it was ok but I was wrong.

Make sure to look for rust especially around the wheel wells cause they can be a pain.

Also check the timing belt if it’s been replaced my friend learned that the hard way. It’s a solid car but little things matter.

I remember when I bought my first used Honda Civic Sport in Toronto. The guy said it was in perfect condition but it had this weird noise. Ended up being the timing belt. I’ve learned to really check under the hood for any worn parts.

Go for a test drive and listen closely to the engine.

I remember buying my used Civic in Toronto It had this amazing sound system that made every drive feel awesome make sure to check the suspension though Mine started making weird noises after a while

Good luck with your search

I’ve had a 2017 Civic Sport for a while now in Toronto and honestly the ride’s been pretty smooth but when getting a used one check the history. I have run into friends getting burned by hidden accidents.

Also don’t skip on the test drive it’s where you feel those little quirks and vibes. Just saying.

I remember when I bought my first used Honda Civic back in Texas. It was so reliable but I wish I had checked the mileage better. You gotta watch out for those odometer rollbacks because some sellers play tricks.

Also inspect the engine for any leaks and the brakes feel smooth. The interior should show some wear but not too much abuse. Happy hunting

Buying a used Honda Civic Sport is kinda tricky I remember when I got mine in Toronto was super excited but found a ton of small issues like dents in the bumper and weird tire wear

Gotta check the service history and make sure the timing belt was done or you’ll be in for a surprise later

I ve had a 2018 Civic Sport before and loved it but when I was shopping I checked for tire wear and any weird noises.

Got it from a dealer in Toronto and they were pretty shady about maintenance records.

Look out for rust especially in the southeast USA where salt’s everywhere.

Overall solid cars just make sure you get a good history.

I’ve had a 2015 Honda Civic Sport for a while now in Toronto and let me tell you I love it but when buying used make sure to check the maintenance records. I had a friend who skipped that step and ended up with a nightmare of repairs.

Also pay attention to the tires they can be a big expense.
