Automatic Transsmision Problem Civic 2003

[chicosci]

[SIZE=2]Hello may problem kasi yung 2003 model civic ko ngayon. kanina lang nagsimula yung problem pag from neutral to D pag di ko inantay ng mga 2-3secs nagkakaron ng *toog* sound siya pag tapak ko sa gas kahit hinayhinay lang kasi sa traffic naman yun. tapos nung nakalabas nako sa traffic ang sama ng shifting nung tranny ko sobrang ramdam ung paglipat niya ng gear tapos minsan di agad siya lumilipat parang humihina ung hatak then pagshift tska magkakahatak yung car. then my isang time naman bigla tumaas yung RPM ko ng mga 5k RPM pero hindi ko naman tinatapakan ng todo ung gas nasa 50km/h ata takbo ko nun. parang pakiramdam ko bigla siya nagpunta ng 1st gear from 3rd gear pero di naman ako tumatapak sa gas ng malalim steady lang. tapos basta sobrang ibang ibang shifting niya ngayon erratic na. Last night naman sobrang ok pa yung car walang kaproblem problem. nagtataka lang ako kasi biglaan eh. kakapalit lang ng ATF nun last month and gumanda pa yung perfomance pag palit ng ATF so hindi siguro ATF ang problem at reddish pa color niya ngayon. Ano po kaya ang problem niya? and saan kaya ok pacheck siya? sana hindi sa casa kasi ang tagal pag sa casa eh and mahal din hehe. natatakot ako baka sira na tranny pero parang imposible kasi 38k palang natakbo at tipid naman sa gas nakaka 11km/ltr pako eh average consumption ng civic es pag matic is 9km/ltr. wala naman kasi siya symptoms before na may problem yung tranny super smooth shifting naman siya before. kanina umaga lang talaga bigla bigla nagkaganto.

ganto rin yung akin, nag jejerk siya pinaoverhaul ko na lahat lahat pero ganun parin

Most common problem for hard shifting for auto tranny are low on trans. oil or tranny mount is broken. Im pretty sure one of those are the culprit. Good luck!!!!

[speedyfix]

what atf did you use? is the level correct?

[aga_cruz]

try mo sa goodyear kasi ngayon lang ako nakarinig ng ganyan problem lalo na 2003 model yung sayo e yung pregio namin 1997 halos matunuyuan na ng atf ok pa din ,,,, try mo sa goodyear

[chicosci]

im using royal purple sythetic atf. yes level is correct. sa shop nyo po sir migs pinapalit ang atf nun. update lang sa problem sobrang sama na ngayn. kanina bigla nawalan na ng hatak tapos nanginginig na siya parati pag tapak sa gas sobrang bagal na then pag dating ng mga 3k rpm dun na sobrang sama na para siya palyado na di maintindihan. kahit tumapak sa gas tumataas lang yung rpm pero hirap umabot kahit sa 40km/hr pwede kayang engine problem yun?

[speedyfix]

it will be hard to say for sure... sometimes the best bet would be to have the car plugged into a scanner so it can be checked for engine faults. ES civics have quite a few problems and it might be one of those. leme know when you are free so i can scan the box.

Baka hindi naman transmission problem yan......

Pero kung transmission problem pala yan eh di mag honda atf na lang para sure...

Sensitive ba mga honda sa atf?

what is the correct way of reading the ATF level ? do you read it while the engine is idling or do you turn the engine off then read the level ?

Warm up your transmission (warm not hot). Drive your car in about 15 Km then check your ATF in a flat surface to do this, you need somebody to help you. Have the person sit on driver side then tell it to shift gear to drive (D)(idling). Then check dipstick for proper level. If any your trans need fluid add little by little on any case, do not overfill your tranny it will do more harm than good.

thanks ! merry christmas !

So mas masama ang overfill or yung below konti sa level?

[afrasay]

Looks like ECU ng tranny. Need to reset or something. Better take migs' advice and have it analyze.

try mo kaya palinis yung transmission filter mo usually lahat ng car may transmission filter ... your best bet is try openning the crankcase then drain mo uli yung atf ... check kung barado yung transmission filter .... yung price nito mga 2000+ sa kasa .... oem mga 1200 ... if you like drop by ka sa shop namin para ma check ...

royal purple na gamit mo na atf ... so i think you can't do wrong .,... pero the thug sound mukhang barado eh .... check mo rin kung meron na bunot na wire sa may aircleaner .... alam mo naman yung mga new model ng cars is so sensitive ....

good luck

i'm not positive pero i think on the ES civic the tranny and engine box are a single unit. it doesn't have an atf filter either (typical honda).

[chicosci]

nauwi nalang ako sa casa kailangan overhaul na talaga daw eh. hay mahal gastos huhu

QUestion ok lang ba itulak ang kotse na A/T kung naka neutral?

Sir, is this realy the proper way to check the ATF level on a honda? Upon reading the manual, it says...



I used to do the same thing before, shifting to D while checking the dip stick, but found out upon reading the manual that it should be at normal operating temp then SHUT OFF ENGINE before getting the reading.

And yes you are correct that overfill can cause trouble on A/T tranny. In my experience, i wasnt experiencing severe trouble on shifting. i only noticed when running at around 80kph and hinde naka apak sa gas medyo taas baba rpm ko parang feeling ko nalilito sya kung ddown shift ba sya o uupshift and its not that serious, kung nde ka OC driver nde mo yun mapapasin. But after I found out thru forums and reviews na masama over fill, I immediately downloaded honda manual for my ESI 95 and found out the correct way of reading ATF level. And for sure, overfill nga ako, drain ako onti and made sure na upper mark lang yng ATF ko. I did this just this morning. Test drive ako on my way to work and then i felt mas swabe shifting ko, nde na nalilito tranny ko. very responsive sarap i hataw. as long as madiin tapak mo sa gas mas matagal sya nagsishift meaning hinahayaan ka nya humatak ng malakas bfore sya mag shift.

i am due to atf change this week, any suggestions on a practical perpective... eto kasi plano ko...

upon reading threads, para sure na sure ako... i'll go for a honda ATF Z-1 fluid. but here's the catch... kay speedyfix for flushing, they need 12 liters of ATF = that 12 * 550 = 6,600 na agad and then labor pa nya... (sure na flushed out lahat, yun nga lang isang bagsak na more than 12 liters na ATF plus labor pa nya)


OR


i'll buy 3 liters muna, have my tranny drained then fill... then shempre nde flushed out lahat since asa torque converter pa yung iba, i'm planning to drain and fill again (3liters) after a month and then ganun ulit the following month. total of 3 drains and fills gagawin ko in a matter of 3 mos or less para nde masakit sa bulsa. Ok kaya to mga sir? 150 lang naman labor ng drain and fill sa suki kong mekaniko.
