Why is the fuel consumption of Civic getting higher and higher?
2 Answers
Honda Civic has high fuel consumption because there is too much carbon deposit accumulation in the engine throttle, which leads to the high fuel consumption. Cleaning the throttle can not only solve the problem of high fuel consumption but also improve the power of the Honda Civic engine. Here is the relevant introduction of Honda Civic: 1. Exterior: The Dongfeng Honda Civic has a grand and fashionable appearance, with smooth body lines. The hatchback appearance has undergone significant changes compared to the old model. 2. Interior: The interior of Dongfeng Honda Civic is finely crafted and has a fashionable design with a prominent sense of hierarchy. The functional configuration is relatively rich, but the extensive use of hard plastic results in a less satisfying touch. The seats are quite comfortable. 3. Space: The space performance is good, with ample legroom in both front and rear seats. The headroom in the front seats is generous, but it is somewhat cramped in the rear seats. The middle bulge on the rear floor is not obvious, enhancing practicality. The storage compartments are practical, and the trunk space has also improved compared to the old model. 4. Handling: The gear shifting of Dongfeng Honda Civic is relatively smooth, with clear gear positions, but some users have reported that "the gear travel is relatively short, and there is a friction sound." The suspension tuning is moderately soft and hard; the steering wheel is quite flexible. The clutch pedal travel has been shortened compared to the old model. Some users have mentioned that "the braking force in the first half of the brake pedal travel is average, and an increased force is needed to achieve the desired braking effect."
I've been driving a Civic for almost six years now. At first, the fuel consumption was quite economical, but recently it's been getting higher and higher. I think it might be due to the car's age—the engine's efficiency has declined with prolonged use, and incomplete combustion due to aging has also weakened the power a bit. On top of that, my driving habits aren't great. I often accelerate and brake abruptly when rushing to work, which definitely causes fuel consumption to spike. Low tire pressure is another issue—it increases road resistance. I only found out during my last maintenance check that proper tire pressure can save a lot of fuel. Maintenance-wise, I haven't been changing the engine oil frequently enough, and the clogged air filter wasn't replaced in time, both of which have contributed to the problem. In short, checking these small details promptly and sticking to regular maintenance can help keep fuel consumption under control.
