Civic Si owners, sign the petition, it'll make a difference for all of us. I don't know if it has been stated before. I tried to search but got no results. Thanks.
signed and so disappointed.....Not only do I have tranny issues, now Honda is sending a wrecker to tow my car this morning due to a BAD misfire that just decided to pop its head up when I started the car. 4500 miles
I have a question. Does this relate to the 07 si? i got a four door and i got like 28000 miles.. Every time im in vtech(about 7500 rpm) in 1st gear and i try to shift to 2nd it grinds... if anyone knows please let me know befor my warranty goes out!
Like Clockwork .. I hit 3500 and It did it for the first time.. I looked down like i did something wrong and ive been drivign stick for years.. no signs leading up besides the fact its kinda "Klunky" in the morning when its really cold in the AM in the NE.
SO does this count as a 3rd gear problem? Sometimes when I am driving and I shift into 3rd gear it feels a little stiff when I throw it in. I have 4600 miles on my Sidan and Im used to just clutching and throwing it into third, so I think Im just letting the clutch go too quickly. But its never popped out while driving in third, just feels stiff and occasionally grinds when I do that.
Im getting the oil change tomorrow and having them look at the window streaks that get left when I roll the windows down and up. If this is a third gear issue I want to let them know about it...thought they probably wont be able to reproduce the issue.
3rd gear pops out occasionaly, grinds ALL THE TIME no matter easy or hard shifting, and i also have problems even getting the car in first gear. Im sitting at light, light turns green i put it in first gear, O WAIT IT WONT GO IN, so 3 options, i first started jamming it in there and after doing ti hard enough it would go, option 2 slightly revving the engine seemed to do the trick but you need to wait for it to drop which sucks if your at a green light, and 3rd which i basically do all the time now is just shift to second then back to first sometimes twice but it usually does the job and i dont feel bad for banging it in there.

man i thought it was me. I just picked my 08 si sedan yesterday and right when i pulled out i felt like an ass for missing second driving real slow. im just so used to putting it in gear easy and letting the clutch out. its hard to feel when its actually in gear. Then, today I grinded 3rd....maybe i just need to get used to it. other than that, i love my si.
signed... it might just be psychological, but 3rd gear seems the least smooth to shift into out of all the gears, as if the slot is smaller and bumpier. Hope this makes a diff...
Seems like I'm experiencing this third gear problem whether the car is hot or cold and I am now at about 16K miles and changed tranny oil to synthetic at 4K miles.
Im at 5.5k and it grinding on my while shifting the other night...and I know I was in 3rd when I let the clutch out. Other times it just feels tough to catch when I shift into 3rd.
Where is the link to contacting American Honda about this, after signing the petition. I saw it here somewhere the other day while getting motivated to sign, and now want to call them to discuss it after signing.
