2013 Civic Shop Manual Question

[Gregory Dragon]

I'm in the process of changing out my starter on my 2013 Civic LX coupe (yes, with 87,000 miles and TONS of starts/day, it's shot already). Honda is being stingy with releasing the info to Haynes and Chiltons, but from the videos I've found on YouTube, the 2006-2009 Civic motor set-up seems pretty similar to what I was looking at underneath and around the starter (with the starter sitting just above the right axle.......and.....inbetween the engine block and the air intake (not the air filter housing, but what was described in one video as the air intake)). Can anyone tell me if these engines ARE similar to the '13 1.8L or not so I know if I get the book that it'll be accurate.

Thanks in advanced!!

The r18 motor is like 99% identical from 8th to 9th gen.

Thanks...that's what I thought with looking at the exhaust manifold and the intake in the rear. That way I'll be able to get actual diagrams to know what I'm looking for when changing this starter.
