Problem overview

Some Honda Civic del Sol owners report experiencing issues with the removable roof, including wind noise, squeaks, rattles, and water leaks. Additionally, some owners have noted the need to replace the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) to resolve false misfire indications and the illumination of the Check Engine Light (CEL). Electrical problems have also been reported, particularly with tail lights and dashboard lights failing, which raises safety concerns during nighttime driving. Furthermore, engine surging issues have been experienced by some owners, especially when the engine is warm, resulting in reduced throttle response and abnormal performance. Lastly, challenges with parts replacement have emerged, as some repair shops may refuse to diagnose further without specific components like the Fast Idle Thermo Valve (FITV), leading to delays in resolving these issues.
