Turbocharger issues
The L15B7 engine is turbocharged, and common problems can include turbo lag, failure, or reduced boost pressure.
Oil dilution
Direct fuel injection engines, such as the L15B7, can suffer from fuel mixing with oil, leading to reduced lubrication and potential engine damage.
Carbon buildup
Direct injection engines are prone to carbon buildup on intake valves, which can affect performance and fuel economy.
Timing chain wear
Over time, the timing chain can stretch or wear, leading to potential engine timing issues or failure.
Cvt transmission problems
Many 2017 Honda Civics come with a CVT, which can have issues such as shuddering, slipping, or premature wear.
Cooling system issues
The turbocharged engine generates more heat, which can lead to cooling system problems such as radiator or water pump failure.
Ignition coil failure
The ignition coils can fail over time, leading to misfires or poor engine performance.
Fuel pump failure
Direct injection systems rely on high-pressure fuel pumps, which can fail and cause starting or performance issues.
Sensor failures
Modern engines have numerous sensors (e.g., oxygen sensor, mass air flow sensor) that can fail and lead to poor performance or check engine light activation.
