Hi,
I have an auto b16a2, and when I drive, the gear changes seem very jerky..
Would changing the transmission fluid fix this ?
When it starts to change gears, it takes it time before it actually does, then gives it a slight jerk..
Cheers..

I went to fill up my petrol today..
And after I filled it up, it felt alright ? no struggling for gears etc..
I don't understand :(

Trip - did you change petrol?

I noticed my previous b16 didn't like optimax very much at all, but chuck some synergy or ultimate and it would run beautiful .. v.smooth..

is that wat happened bro?

u can try getting those electrical earthing kits that someone is sellin on rsx for $220. they r buddy club ones and from ppl's reviews, they say power delivery is smoother and also gear changes too!

Dunno James..
I've always put Ultimate in there ever since my conversion..
But I know that after I did my conversion, I was still on 95 RON petrol..
Could it be that ?
I assumed that the petrol would be diluted by now since I've filled it quite a few times..
Hmm.. any ideas ?
