As a car enthusiast, I have a deep understanding of the Honda Civic's transmission systems. Starting with older models, the base versions of 1990s Civics commonly used 5-speed manual transmissions, known for their excellent handling feel and high modification potential. After 2000, automatic transmissions and CVT (continuously variable transmissions) were gradually introduced, especially in newer Civic models from the 2010s onward. For instance, the popular 10th and 11th generation gasoline-powered Civics mostly feature CVT setups. The advantage of CVT is smooth acceleration and fuel efficiency, making it ideal for daily commuting. However, high-performance versions like the Civic Type R still retain the 6-speed manual option, offering more driving pleasure for those who enjoy manual control. Overall, the type of transmission depends on the specific model year and variant, so checking the specifications before purchasing is crucial to avoid being misled by outdated knowledge. By the way, CVT reliability is decent—with regular maintenance, it can last a long time, which is one of Honda's key strengths.

Why is the water temperature low when the car just starts?

This is a normal phenomenon. When the car just starts, the engine temperature has not yet risen, so the water temperature is also low. Here is some relevant information: 1. The reason for low car water temperature is usually a damaged thermostat or the cooling fan running continuously. The thermostat is a component that automatically acts as a valve based on the engine's water temperature, generally installed at the outlet of the radiator and the inlet of the water pump. 2. When the coolant temperature is low, the thermostat blocks the low-temperature coolant from the radiator, preventing it from entering the engine water jacket, allowing the water temperature in the jacket to rise quickly—this is the small circulation. If the water temperature rises to a certain level, the valve gradually opens, and the coolant from the radiator begins to circulate again, allowing the coolant to flow through the radiator, slowly increasing the water temperature and dissipating heat to the atmosphere through the radiator, maintaining the engine water temperature at an appropriate level—this is the large circulation.
