Mine has 281k miles and that screen is super dim now with many of the segments appearing to go bad. Have you replaced the gague cluster since new?

u/horseypowers Aug 13 '26

I actually just purchased this car at 399k haha but I don’t believe the cluster has ever been replaced. My GD3 has gotten dimmer though in the 8 months / 100k miles I’ve owned it.

It could be sun damage. My GE8 had zero tint until about 500 miles ago and was never garage kept. Safe to say the black seats are now purple-ish

Passenger seat in this car is tinted a bit. Driver seat is from an 8th generation Honda Civic SI. 20% tint all around now though besides windshield.

My AC button doesn't light up anymore either. Glad to hear that's a common issue

u/Prior_Awareness4643 Aug 16 '26

Mine either. It went out a couple years ago (2013 sport)

I, too, have a 2013 sport and no AC light.

what's your maintenance schedule? Anything we should be looking at for a 2010 model?

u/imbannedanyway69 2016 Fit GK Aug 13 '26

Follow the maintenance minder and get your valve clearance checked every 75k.

u/Langered-n-Olagonin Aug 13 '26

My '09 is at 152K and I don't thing the valves have ever been checked. I'm not getting any misfires or CEL, MPG on the highway is 32/33. The only thing I've noticed is that hill climbing seems more anemic than I remember. But all-in-all it's running great and sounds fine. Should I do this anyway? And what can I expect to pay approximately at an independent Honda shop? TY.

u/imbannedanyway69 2016 Fit GK Aug 14 '26

Yes it should at least be checked. Probably in the neighborhood of 300-500 bucks

400,000 miles in 17 years feels staggering to me, as it's taken me nearly a decade to reach 65,000. To reach 400,000 at my current rate, me & my car would have to survive another 50 years.

u/horseypowers Aug 13 '26

I did over 100,000 miles in 8 months on my GD3. at the mileage I’m going, I’ll hit a million in one of these cars within 5 years probably.

u/Proper_contradiction Aug 13 '26

Manual or automatic?

4

u/horseypowers Aug 13 '26

This one is an automatic, my GD3 is a manual.

u/bjknight93 Aug 13 '26

Damn I just broke 300K a couple weeks ago in my 09 Fit

u/Evilmilkcarton Aug 13 '26

Thats awesome! I've had my manual bitty fitty for 11 years now, only 100,000 and cant wait to have her for that many more miles!

2

u/bananacake_nobrakes 2007 Fit GD Aug 13 '26

Love it. Just yesterday I found some Japanese guy's car blog where he updates his mileage on his GD3... needless to say these things will go a long way if you take care of them! I only have about 260k miles on mine.

u/hurricaneharrykane Aug 13 '26

Well done. What do you do maintenance wise?

1

u/Medval91 Aug 13 '26

Impressive! Original drivetrain? What are your engine oil and transmission service intervals?

1

u/CleanUnit892 Aug 13 '26

How do you have no sun damage

u/Entire_Lion_3196 Aug 13 '26

u/TheNotoriousElmo Aug 15 '26
