papano pala malalaman kung kelangan na reset yung cvt? any erratic shifting or something na maiiba to merit a reset? and ano magbabago sa shifting pattern after a reset? yung cvt ko bumababa naman sa 1 pag full stop pero parang malakas sa FC kasi im averaging 7-8km/liter lang city driving.

Parang Contra to achieve 100 lives: up, up, down, down, left right left right b a select start and presto 100 lives.

Mahirap pala to own a car with CVT?

Ang napansin ko kasi, hindi smooth ang transmission lately, and lagi sya downshift.

Another question, how do you really drive the CVT? Do you just step on the gas in a constant manner and let him do the shifting? Or you step on the gas hard to shift down and release to shift up? Hope you could help a clueless and concerned CVT user.

xircom, try mo to drive by slowly pressing the pedal wag bigla para mag upshift sya normally. if you want to downshift. step on the pedal harder " tip toe method" then release if you want to upshift. it takes time to get used to driving an automatic with cvt, its a bit different from the torque converter type auto transmission. HOPE THIS HELP....

Yeah. I've been doing this because I have noticed that when you momentarily release the gas pedal, the rpm would go down. I concluded that since the rpm went down, the fuel consumption should be less.

For city driving here in Gensan, my City 1.3 cvt AT. would have around 1200 to 1500rpm...seldom 2000rpm.

On highway travel. I usually maintain 2000rpm at 80 kph and occasionally 3000rpm at 100 to 120 kph.

medyo may kulangpo sa reset procedure eh hehehe.

you need a computer or data link connector. computer which is use by honda dealers to diagnosed and reset Vehicles computers.
CVT is best when calibrated. pag d nakalibrate mapapansin nyo parang pigil manakbo or mahina humatak..
yung sa 60 kph decelleration tama din but something is misssing sa procedure hehehe.

and may isa pang kulang sa mgfa procedure n yun...
better go to honda dealer mga sir kasi much better na authorized person do that job hehehe..
im from honda pla mga sir. i will not say n lng what dealer para walang conflict hehehe...

thanks

enjoy ride....FAST.......

i agree with you aiz 2azone, it should be done in a dealer... i've done that when i sense something wrong with the shifting after I replaced the battery.
I was advised to do this everytime I changed the battery bec the setting changes when the battery dies.... a bit costly.. but it was done correctly.
As a result, I got better gas mileage ( 17kms/liter hiway ave of 100kph and 12-13 kms city driving).

kahapon ng magpalit ako ng CVTF sa Honda cavite, libre na daw magpare calibrate ng CVT sabi nung service advisor, PHP 2596 lahat. In a weeks time siguro mapapansin ko na. Ask ko na rin magkano estimate ninyo Idler bearing ng city natin ? Yun nakalagay na for replacement
