The wrong lubricant was likely used on the brake pad slide area (mechanic noted it was dry); and 2. the lower control arm bushing (right side) may need replacing - the mechanic sprayed some deep creep on it. As a result of this two adjustments, the clunking disappeared, but since he did both things at once the actual solution was not isolated. Replace muffler |

Jun 2022105400 miC $300 | First the exhaust pipe, just after the resonator, broke clean off without warning. It looked like it was sawn off. Upon removing it I found the flanges at the joint with the catalyser section were so thin that the catalyser had to be replaced too. Upon removing the cat section from the exhaust manifold I found more flanges/bolts so degraded that it was difficult to disassemble. The flange on the manifold is also quite degraded, but I decided to leave it. It seems that the muffler/catalyser/piping may be stainless and very durable. That is good, but the flanges, bolts and nuts all rust making repairs neccessary and extremely difficult. |

Mar 201779000 mi | Check engine on. Use a code reader, the code was P2A00: Air-fuel ratio sensor. On the GD3 FIT it's the sensor on the exhaust manifold. Resetted the code, it came back the same day. Did reset a second time, the CEL came back on, every time P2A00. But this time call went out by itself. It is more than a month ago now and it had not returned. I wanted to test the resistance of the sensor, to see if it really gone bad, but it's not easy to get to it. I've heard that if the Valve lash are out of spec, this could cause a false A/f sensor CEL. My car has bad fuel economy for a couple of months now, so there's something going on. | ||
Sep 201786200 miUS $225 | Engine stutter, some misfire and unstable idle for couple week. No check engine light, but problem was evident. All symptoms pointed toward ignition coils.

Jan 2022118500 miUS $440 | Air fuel ration sensor failed. It's the second time in 5 years. unfortunately. I tried to change the sensor myself 5 years ago, because your save at least 100$ on the part alone. but unfortunately on the Honda fit it's very hard to reach and you need a lift to get under the car. so a 150-180$ job DIY become a 400$ one (Canadian). But garages as a good service also repaired tire leak and tested my battery/alternator. they winter is very cold this year. |

Mar 2014160000 miUS $110 | Gave the engine the commonly required Honda Fit valve adjustment because the car was stalling when you put in the clutch when the engine was cold (e.g.; car would stall when pulling up to a stop light). | ||
Jun 2014161000 miUS $1814 | The compressor failed, so my shop put in a salvaged one. My mechanic's opinion was that they were better than 3rd party refurbished. The dealer wanted $1080 for the job. One or more of the valves was bad; was probably driven too long by the previous owner with out of spec valve clearances. Could have fixed the valve for $150 less; but engine replacement should be better in the long run. | ||
Jun 2017195000 miUS $1080 | The transmission started making a failing halfshaft bearing noise. A used 82k mile transmission was under 400, so my mechanic and I figured it would be cheaper and more reliable to replace rather than repair, so we went that route. Replaced the clutch at the same time. I would have liked to get more than 196k miles on the original transmission, but I can't really complain. |
