    We just bought a Honda City 2008 A/T model. There's just one problem (we have been informed by the former owner). Sometimes when in Park mode, it would not start. But when you put it in Neutral or wiggle the lever a bit, it would start.

    Has anybody experienced this on their Honda City models. Or is this related to the dreaded CVT problem. I was hoping it's just a sensor problem. Please advise. Thanks in advance.

    same problem with me... siguro loose connection lang or something... i get by with it... might have to have it checked though...

    since your city is the last mmc city, it would be possible that it wouldn't be affected by the cvt problem... earlier models were probably damaged because hcpi placed atf in the tranny instead of cvtf.

    i own a 2006 city cvt and thankfully i haven't experienced any tranny problems. its already running at 140k kms. just have to religiously change cvtf every year or every 20k km.

    Suggest you check when was the last time the cvt oil was changed. Should be every 2 years at least. Pacheck agad mas mahal pag lumaki ang sira.

    Ser landlord, if ever na kailangn nyo ng brake pads and disk rotor for your honda city 2008, pm mo lang ako baka sayo ko mabenta ang mga ito. Original lahat to from casa at hindi pa nagamit. Naitrade-in ko kasi yong kotse ko for SUV at saka huli na ng dumating kaya hindi ko na napa-install yong parts.

    ngyayari sakin yan dati. while in "P" ayaw mag start. ginagawa ko apak break, shift sa R-N-D-S-L then pabalik sa P, tapos yun mag start na. not sure pero hindi ata pumapasok ng maigi yung P kaya ayaw mg start kaya need pa ulitin. pero when i replaced my tranny never na ulit ngyari.

    It is the neutral safety switch (NSS) or its equivalent in Honda...

    Purpose of which is to prevent the engine from being started unless you're in 'P' or 'N'

    Obviously, the car does not recognize that you're in 'P' or 'N' and that is why it does not start,- and the necessity to wiggle or to play around with the AT lever.....
