Hi,
I've got a 97 Civic VTi with the CVT transmission. There are a lot of problems and I spent a lot of time:( to fight with the dealer about all the problems.
The dealer replaced the start clutch, lower valve body and PCU of the car due to the symptom of surging and suddering when take off. Luckily I got this fixed for free (with a lot of compliant to Honda about this famous CVT problems).
There is one problem left until now. It's doing like bunny hop when you let the accelerator goes and try to re-accelerate especially btn revs 1500-2000 and when the car is cold.
Can anyone give me some sort of idea what the problem might be? I have also replaced the spark plug leads and requested the dealer to clean the fuel injectors in regards to this problem as an isolation but symptom still persist.
I've also been advised that to modify this CVT to a 4-speed auto would be a permanent fix. Anyone knows what place in Sydney does a good job for this conversion and at a good price?
Your response is much appreciated!
