Compare Honda Civic AdBlue repair quotes from specialist garages

The Civic has been produced since 1972 and is one of Honda's most popular models. It has a diverse lineup, from hatchbacks and sedans to coupes, with top speeds ranging from 110 to 130 mph. In 2022, The Sunday Times Motor Awards crowned the Honda Civic Type R 'Legend Car of the Year', and it was also named 'Car of the Year' at the Top Gear Awards.

As with most Hondas, the Civic has an excellent reputation for reliability. Chipped paint and missing windscreen washer caps are the main things to look for. In recent years, modified Civics have become iconic symbols of the tuner car culture, thanks to numerous appearances in the Fast and Furious film franchise.

AdBlue is a diesel exhaust fluid sprayed in small amounts onto exhaust gas, turning the NOx into less harmful nitrogen and water. If your car runs out of AdBlue while driving, its performance will be significantly reduced; when you stop the engine, it won't start again until you refill the tank.

Pump failure is one of the most common issues associated with the AdBlue system. Fortunately, an AdBlue pump repair or replacement isn't usually costly. Other problems include contamination and failure of the nozzle, NOx sensor and the AdBlue control unit.

You'll need to book an AdBlue system repair if your car develops any of these faults. Most of the time, the mechanic will run an AdBlue fault diagnostic first. Booking a car AdBlue service, which involves a top-up of fluid and a general check of the system's components, can help prevent the above issues.
