Piece of s**t now has 2 functioning lights (for now)
The drivers side one seemed to be the wrong bulb, which wasn't the issue (wasn't blown up either). Looks like the connector on the back had just come marginally loose so wasn't firing.
The one in there was a D2S, but there's a D2R in the passenger side.. so I swapped the D2S for a new D2R and the light pattern now matches both sides.. probably been blinding people a bit.
Car is f**king cursed, though.
That whole design is absolutely awful. It's worse than 172 levels of inaccessibility to lights. The passenger side one to get decent access you need to take part of the intake out!
Once again, don't buy these cars. Although do buy mine, I need something I can actually work on

The accessibility is why mine has 1 silvervision ? the pass side one was going to require removal of things so I never bothered!

I think the sidelights on that side are OK, you'd just need to remove the battery. Main light though can eat a big bag of dicks
It's equal ime. Both utterly shite to work on. It's just you only have to work on the civic half as much as the meg

Easily my worst purchase in a while, even worse than the Golf ?
Had this like.. 14 months so far, about the same amount of time as the M3. Golf lasted about 14 months too

Had this piece of s**t 18 months now. MOT in June.. probably won't need anything (maybe an advisory on brakes)
Not even done 6000 miles in it yet
AC still doesn't work because I have no interest in fixing it, so this car will not get used at all in the summer. Will be sold once my house move is done.
Form a queue.

It's a solid car aside from the AC and the paint. Perfect track car. First to see will buy. 1 lady owner.

It is only natural that this failed it's MOT today
Headlight not aligned (it was the HID I'd touched and I'd managed to put the holder in the wrong way round) - fixed now
One of the rear side lights (there are 2 each side) was out.. so that was a fail
Tyre valve on the NSF had perished to the point where the tester wasn't happy with it. The guys that replaced those tyres not that long ago seem to have reused the valves. That's fixed
One advisory for an exhaust blowing, have had the tyre/exhaust people look at it and they can't spot what exactly is wrong only a rough location.. so that'll need the system dismantling to find that. It's going to be sold soon anyway so I may just not bother. Everyone loves a louder exhaust.
Didn't fail on brakes or emissions though.
So all of that bar the exhaust is fixed and its booked in for its retest in about an hour. Then it's time to make it look presentable and get rid!
Not even going to put a for sale thread on CS ?

It's the very definition of pissing into the wind though
Yes, but for comedy write up value it’s a must.
