HOW TO ACTIVATE RED VTEC LIGHT & Access secret menu // Honda Civic FN2 Type R 

my old man's been trying to work this out over the past year of having it lmao will definitely send this video to him lol

Dude you are the man!!! Just watched your video, had my car 2 and a half years and had no idea about it, just went outside and done it now, You’re videos are great bro 👌👍

love the DIY and advice videos more learned on your channel than most big youtubers.

Bought my FN today and doing this ASAP. Thanks many!

Didn't know about this for ages 😂 Thanks for the heads up bro! keep it coming 👍

Absolute legend im lying on holiday at the moment I've had my type r 2 years a 2007 plate didnt have a clue about this as I had a 2008 fn2 before it and the red vtec light came on in that car don't know if that was standard or not but I'll definitely be doing this on Friday when I get home keep up the good work buddy

Great info, I will definitely put mine on, thanks for letting all us VTEC peeps know!!!

Mine was already on but didn't have a clue it was an optional setting! Great informative video mate 👍🏻

Thanks for the guide it's a nice little bonus to have and was able to change some other setting that were annoying me

yoooo! I didn't notice how much your views had shot up! keep up the good work dude :D

Bullet proof cars these civics 😍

Already knew this but good video for those that don't. 👍

Nice one mate 👍🏻

Hi. I have just bought a Honda FN 2 type R GT 2011 13000 miles.. yes it genuine full Honda history and in superb condition all the relevant checks done of the car Lady owner at new for 6 years always garaged could not believe I found such a car ..

Time to go outside and activate this :) just got my type R yesterday!

Dam thanks for this bro.

Thanks for this. If nothing else I turned off the tyre pressure warning light that has been bugging me for months!

Another great video 👍 had a race with a new focus rs in the lakes last week...he never got away...fn2 can cover ground a lot faster than people think...helped that i knew the twisty road mind 😊

that's so cool. didn't know that but now i do :) thanks bro

That is a beautiful civic

I'd say just keep doing what your doing, bit of hooning , bit of testing, bit of DIY, reviews... all good

Sweet! Great tip.

Great help watching these videos....thank you

Respect Bro! Hi From Bulgaria! 😎

Very cool and helpful video bro well done man 👍🏼😀

This has always been on in my FN2, had no idea it was optional.

Bought my girlfriend her type r few month back and had this already done to it I always wondered how hers had that light on all the time I thought there was a faulty wire 😂😂😂lucky I saw this before I pulled dash apart 😂😂

I got a 2.2 I-cdti 140 hp, and I am very happy

nice one buddy

Thx for sharing , great to know

Sweet video from a sweet guy

Great mate I will try this on my Honda civic ivtec 1.8

Awesome thanks

Good one :)

Done this soon as I finished watching this video ... awesome ! Great vid nice one and shout out to Dave.

Thats a great

I'll try it tonight 😁😁😁

Love watching the videos man! Can I ask is there a way of making all the dials red on an FN1 without having to change bulbs etc?

I just bought a 1.8 i vtech civic, and i am loving it so much so far... I am thinking of some visual mods and stuff like that , but first wanna let my wallet fill up a bit ;p Anyways great to find your channel as it is informative and entertaining at the same time... P.s: the audio quality is way better in this vid so props for that :)

Hi I have the civic ex ivtec I accessed the hidden menu but no red light VTEC option is it only the type r that has it?

I thought this was a normal thing I got all excited for something new but mines always been like that lol

Dear Dr Stealth Like the chap below mine was already set to On.... However my Rev indicator amber lights do not come on.. Will use your informative vid to see if I can adjust. Many Thanks!

Too bad I live in North America u guys in Europe got the cool cars I want to visit London someday

Good info

Wkd video bro

Funny, this video made me realise my car had the Vtech indicator on but not the rev one...^^'

I've got the Giant Turd (GT) model. Can get into the menu but the select button is doing nothing. Was half hour ago. But not now. Any ideas pls buddy.

I got Honda 2011 Civic type S. Surely they have it too? What is the difference between have it on and not have it on?

Ty mate

why doesnt the amber REV lights build on the LHS . how do you turn this feature on?

Hi buddy just back my holidays and tryed to enter the secret menu but won't let me and ideas why

When you drive your type r properly, you’re not paying attention to a tiny red dot 🔴 that lights up on the dash board.

car going super saiyan

Thanks. Can I test the vitec in neutral? I mean when the car stands still?

Good vid mate. Can you make vids of cruises and in vtec mode ;) p.s keep up the good work'

Does this work on FK3 1.8 ivtec ?

Hello brother great video keep it up Is the car expinssive to have for first time driver ??

It's all good fam

I have a 2006 one and it seems that I don't have the same display as you, it only displays me the speed limit alarm but nothing else Though the Vtec light is already ON but it doesn't seems that the rev indicator is working on mine

Is this setting only for Type R?? Can it be done on FA SI?

I have a 1.8 vtec. I checked, unfortunately I don't have this option.

Does this work for the type s also?

Is this feature available on the type s

Thumbs up bway, me nah know dis - now me do. 👍

if they made the rev dial and vtec buttons bigger it would have been sooo much better.

Does it work in type s model?

does this work in the si?

What's up stealth brother I know you miss your fn2 type r Civic,I'm sure u will find the car u want.V-TEC

It this also in fk2?

mate speed alarm how to turn off

Nice video as always but these lights are useless to me as to my comfort drivers position blocks the speedo and lights. I still have my shift i shift lights to be fitted but couldn't find a rpm pulse to use it. If you have any of your bros who could point me in the direction of this would be well pleased. And yep tried adjusting my seat and wheel but didn't feel comfortable at all bringing the steering wheel closer doesn't feel relaxed and moving the steering wheel downwards hits my knee. Keep up the videos :)

My 2006 Fn2 TypeR doesn't have such menu. And button displacement is different.

why wasnt your Rev counter not moving?

Been driving for over a year and didn't even know 🤣

Thanks for sharing. Now I don't have the Type R (yet) but I do have the Type S (Advantage) and am wondering if it can be turned on and off with this model too. (Edit: just checked it... It can :-)

hi mate just bought my first type r gt fn2, your vids are good mate, can i ask which is the best petrol station to use, cheers mate

Nice, but how can you switch off annoying beeps ?

Only works with type-r i guess because i didn't see any option like that with my 2007 1.8 sport i-shift

Can I use this on the honda civic 2.2i-CTDi version please all help much appreciated

hi all that follow i have just got a type r gt fn2 and its got a performance air intake i'm wanting to put it back to standard would anyone be interested in a swap cheers guys and thank you stealth brotherz for me putting this on your page and if you could give a shout out that i want to swap can send pics ?

Hi mate good video, question what does the fuel trip setting do?

The type s has VTEC ???

Whats your MPG? i'm looking to buy a FN2 ctr and just curious what MPG you are getting.

Type r only .

I have the gt version

Cause race car baby

Didn't even know about the secret menu 🤣

Hello, does this work on the type S as well ?

Is this also available in 1.8 type s

My GT Modle does this by standerd ?

LOL thats iconomy vtec for lower fuel consumption xD

and the menu does what???

I didnt see any diffrence when vtec is off its the same

It's hilarious this is an option. Honda tried to market Vtec! Hahaha

This is in the instruction manual. It's not secret.

Its not a secret menu 😅

Reading the user manual usually helps understanding your car's features. So, guess what, your secret is not a secret!

Two wasted minutes waffling intro.

Rev limitor lamp shift light how can ı do open light?
