Automatic problem

[Autocr@zy]

Sirs,

May I seek your opinion and your advise... i recently purchased a Honda City 2003 AUTO. It's been running smoothly for about a week now but this morning when I was on my way out I encountered a terrible problem. I was able to drive the car in reverse getting out of our garage, but when I shift to drive the car didn't move until I shifted to reverse again then back to drive. After that the problem did not happen again and everything is ok like before. Is this just some kind of a glitch and there is nothing to worry about or is it a sign of impending problems???

Really need your advise Sirs... Thanks in advance.

also being a newbie having a car, if I experienced katulad ng sayo i better check the transmission fluid first baka low level kaya may glitch.

Just wait for the gurus to post, for sure meron explanation dyan sa problema mo.

Thanks chrismarte, but i checked it before i bought it and looks fine to me naman. Fluid was still reddish in color. Can i use any brand of ATF pang top-off?

yung level kaya sir? baka mababa na....

CVT na ba yung sayo? kasi pag CVT dapat ata CVTF ang gagamitin mo, [SIZE=2]CVTF is a kind of transmission fluid. It is a special fluid that was made for Honda City.

Pag ordinary ATF ata ang ginamit mo sa CVT sisirain ata ang tranny mo

sir, ano na po reading ng odo & when huling nagpalit ng ATF or CVTF? per manual (i dunno if same din sa City, mine is Civic '97) every 40K km po ang palit. Use honda ATF/CVTF para sure. ;)
