Are these a common problems in 8th Gen Civic?

1. Wheel bearing problem
2. Steering rack problem
3. Disk brake warped
4. Anybody face rattling dashboard?
5. Is it really poor NVH?

Current Civic owner, please enlighten me on these issues.
Thanks guys.

those problems are common problems for all cars.

1. after 2 years ownership never changed them so i guess pretty solid

3. after 2 years ownership never changed them so i guess pretty solid

been unhappy with the civic on certain things.
have been only in accepting it but then quality issues keep bugging me.
i think i highlighted here before so i won't go into detail.
so selling it off before warranty over to have peace of mind.
getting an mpv for my mom to drive.
i'll take the city from her (the CVT VTEC not the 5AT IVTEC)
left back a year or so in repayment for that, so will think of what to buy after settle that.

naaah... MPV too expensive...thinking of getting something cheap and more suitable for family use to carry me, my wife and my baby... a 4 door sedan

i was looking at the renault espace.
big 7 seater and very cheap 30k odd for a decent year car.
just wondering if i can plonk in a supercharger and turn 7 seater into 6 seater (all buckets) brows.gif

QUOTE(unitron @ Sep 7 2012, 09:39 PM)
Dunno if anything wrong with the VTC settings, but it was tuned. Hopefully the 'new' tuner can sort it out properly.
My old City was a 2005 CVT VTEC...  good for fuel economy and going up genting with the CVT but it's just a 'normal' 1.5L engine
*
yeah i'll be driving that for a while cry.gif

ive had my eye on the chevy nabira and citra. but not much feedback about them... but i see ALOT of citras on the road though not much nabiras.

but MPV may have to postpone

the espace any good? spare parts availability n cost? fuel consumption? reliability?
*
i'm still looking into that.
was thinking of going to here and find out more.

what really strikes me is its relatively cheapness and size.
its not as tall as elgrand/alphard but longer.
reviews said it can carry 7 people and still have luggage space drool.gif
