    Hi guys, Im new here sa tsikot and new din sa car. Meron ako Honda Civic VTI 99 A/T and currently having problem with the temperature. Normally I drive with aircon on, sa long driving no problem ang temperature pero pag nag traffic unti unti tumataas ng hanggang 1/4 near the redline ang temp. then pag nag start ung radiator fan unti unti naman baba ung temp. After bumababa sa normal (slightly higher sa middle) mamatay ung fan, tapos ung temp tataas ulit and paulit ulit lang na ganun. Ano kaya problem?

    nag palit narin ako ng:
    thermostat (wala kasi dati)
    thermo switch

    temp. sending unit (yan nga ba tawag dito?)


    Isa pa pala tanong, pag nag shishift kasi mejo malakas yung ramdam mo na nag shishift, possible kaya sa ATF lang un. may nakapag sabi sakin na drain ang replace ng several times para mawala o mabawasan. hindi ko palang na tatry.

    Thanks to all!

    bro, palinis/overhaul mo radiator mo baka may bara na mga fins. Ganun di yung civic ko. Tapos yung kadyot during change ng gear parang normal na ata sa ganyang model. Mababawasan lang yung kadyot sa pagpalit ng ATF pero hindi na totally mawawala at ramdam mo pa din.

    for the shift shock check also the engine support, it may cause more vibrtation / shock if its worn out.

    Finally fixed the problem. I just replaced yung thermo switch ko with an original thermo switch

    Good that your rising temp is already solved.

    As for the shift shock, try to have it adjusted. By the way, when was the last time your tranny fluid and filter replaced? If unknown or matagal na, have it done na. Believe me, the cost of change tranny fluid/filter is way cheaper than a tranny overhaul.
