So i have an 02 honda civic hx. i had my transmission go and had a new one put in and im having the same troubles as before and im afraid its going to go again. I went to the honda dealer who replaced it and they just think im crazy and tell me its normal. Its jerking stalling and slipping. I need to do something! Can anyone help me?
Is this transmission the constantly variable transmission (CVT)? I think it is. If so, Honda has a procedure to 'drain and burnish' the transmission fluid to cure the condition that is causing the start clutch to judder. I don't know from your post how long ago the transmission was replaced. If it was a while back, then the problem will usually be cured by this procedure. If it was recently, they may have crossed some wires on the shift solenoids when they put the transmission back in. Honda has a 3 year 36000 mile warranty on their transmission replacements so take it back to the dealer hope that helps
