#41 of 80 Re: Can't shift into drive [shayshee] by targettuning Sep 17, 2007 (5:06 am)
Replying to: shayshee (Sep 05, 2007 4:48 pm) A further possibility has come to my attention. If you are still monitoring this site Honda has issued a recall for this very thing. The recall number is 07V402000. I do not have the specifics on exactly which models and SN's are affected but have a good idea of the symptoms and reasons. If you want to contine exploring this reply to this, my latest post.
#42 of 80 manual stick shifter vibration by xmontx Sep 23, 2007 (8:50 pm)
I haven't gotten any response to my earlier post about the vibration i'm getting from my 3rd gear (i did change the transminssion which helped the notchy gear shifting from 2nd to 3rd)   but if anyone can help me out with the vibration problem that would be great...   my old post is #38: "I'm starting to notice and getting annoyed at when I shift into 3rd gear. I shift it into 3rd gear...and if I push alittle more into gear gear, there's this vibration (I'm not even pushing it hard or anything, just as if you're resting on it). There's no grinding noise from the car, but I get this vibration that happens in 3rd gear. What is it? Is it normal? What's the fix?" Replies to this message: shipo (Sep 24, 2007 3:38 am)

Replying to: xmontx (Sep 23, 2007 8:50 pm) I've heard a HUGE number of complaints about the 2-3 gear change on other boards. Some say using GM Syncromesh, Redline MTF, or Amsoil MTF will at least partially solve the problem, however, some dealers say that doing so will void the warranty on the tranny. Others claim that that the 2-3 shift has been a Honda characteristic for a number of vehicle generations and don't expect Honda to address it anytime soon.   I know that this doesn't help you much, but there it is.   Best Regards, Shipo
#44 of 80 Transmission problem on 2000 Civic by tucker0104 Sep 30, 2007 (4:59 pm)
I have a 2000 Civic that has been having some transmission problems lately. When shifting from reverse to Drive (D4) or Park to Drive (D4) it sometime takes a little while for the light on my dashboard to show up green and is also taking a while to put into Drive. Also, when on the highway, the D4 light will go out and the car's RPM will go up about 500 RPM. It is not shifting to D3 because D3 at 75MPH will put it about 5K RPM. It normally goes from about 3250 to 3750 RPM. Does anybody know what this is? Has anybody encountered this?

Replying to: xmontx (Apr 04, 2007 7:29 am) I have a new 07 Civic Si sedan with 2500 miles and its harder to get into 3rd gear then the other gears, whats up with this??? Also the rev's stick after taking my foot off the gas, it hangs there for 3-4 seconds??? Replies to this message: shipo (Nov 06, 2007 6:19 am)

Replying to: jdelabre (Nov 06, 2007 6:05 am) Both are well known and very typical problems with the Si. Your dealer may claim ignorance of the fact, however, 8th Si boards across the internet have many-many threads on both issues.   Regarding the 3rd gear issue, there have been some recent reports that Honda has just or is about to release some sort of a fix (over and above the upgraded fluid fix of a year ago or so) that includes new gears and syncros.   As for the rev-hang, that is a component of the drive by wire throttle system that keeps the emissions low. There have been numerous firmware updates that have allegedly been written to address the problem. Have your dealer check to see of the latest throttle firmware is in place.   Best Regards, Shipo
#47 of 80 91 HONDA CIVIC TRANSMISSION LEAK by civic91 Nov 12, 2007 (10:43 am)
I HAVE A 1991 CIVIC AND BEFORE THE CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP I PUT IT IN PARK. AFTER THIS IT HAS HAD A SLOW TRANSMISSION LEAK AROUND THE RIGHT FRONT OF THE CAR. WHAT COULD IT BE?

Replying to: civic91 (Nov 12, 2007 10:43 am) Do I understand your situation correctly that the car was moving, and you put it into park before the car was stopped. From that time till now, you have a leak from the transmission around the front of the car.   Do you know for sure that it is transmission fluid? Can you see where it is leaking from? Does the car drive any differently or have any other symptoms that are now different, than the way it was before you did this?

Replying to: kiawah (Nov 12, 2007 3:42 pm) Yes the car was moving and had almost come to a stop when it was put in park with a thud. Yes it is trans but I can't see where from other than it is on the right front even though the transmission is on the left. Thank you for your reply...

Replying to: civic91 (Nov 13, 2007 2:01 pm) Well if you are going to try and diagnose this yourself, you're going to need to get under the car and see where it is leaking.   How is it that you know this is transmission fluid?
