Coad P1547
Are you sure that is the correct code? Maybe P1457?? If so, it's an evaporative emissions system leak. The most common failures for evap on this model are the purge control solenoid, and missing/loose/aftermarket gas caps. The evap system needs to be tested. That's not something I can do over the net. Sorry.
Chack engine light comes on
This means the car's computer has registered a problem (many of which are not serious) and has stored a code to help home in on the fault. Take the car to a mechanic or auto electrician to have this code read out. In the USA Autozone will do this too. Then you will know what needs fixing.

My tire size is 185/65 R 14. can I changed or put tire 195/60 R 15?
No ---not unless you put a 15" rims on the car. The tyre sizing reads like this
185 is the width of the rim from bead to bead in millimetres
the 65 is the profile height --- distance of the rim from the road surface
r is for radial
14 is the rim diameter in inches
now you can understand why a 15"tyre will not fit a14" rim
Tire size
Yes as long as u change the rims also not just the tires these numbers 195/60/15 195 is tire width 60 is tire height and 15 is rim size, most all Hondas will fit up to 215/35/18 with no rubbing issues on factory suspension ..... Every time the rim size changes u have change the height of the tire so it will fit some go as far as " stretching " the tire to allow larger rims or extreme offsets
Replacing air / fuel sensor on the 2005 Civic EX (error code: P0134)
Our civic was throwing a P0134 error code = "air/fuel sensor, no activity detected". These sensors are not the same as the typical "oxygen (O2) sensor" .. and cost a *lot* more. I replaced ours with the Bosch 15473. I expected the original to be corroded in but it wasn't .. the anti-seize compound did it's job. As suggested by the Haynes manual I ran the car for a couple of minutes to warm up the fitting (don't burn yourself on hot exhaust) and I had sprayed the sensor to exhaust connection with penetrating oil. Only a 7/8" (or metric equivalent?) open end wrench is required to remove the sensor ... and it is readily accessible from under the car. So unplug the old sensor, remove the dead unit, screw in the new unit (it's delivered with anti-seize on the threads) and plug it back in. I pulled the PCM fuse while doing the replacement ... replaced it when done. The "check enginge" / error code was clear and we've been good to go since. Having a critical engine control / emissions part like this fail at less than 80k miles is a failure on Honda's part. Dealer says "no recall" and quoted $400+ for diagnosis, part & install. I *think* this procedure will be true for the other VTEC engines of this year and perhaps 2004s but I don't believe the part spans the entire 7th generation Civic.
