Honda had to back their product cause of all the lawsuits and class actions in the US of A.
Part of problem is dealers throwing ATF-z1s in the CVT transmissions ...

Blue GD- Take it in for a CVT Flush, cost a fair bit of cash, as they use 8L of CVT to flush it out. its not just a oil change the flush it like a toilet, that will help clean it out.
Fredoops- Someone on fit freak told me the Honda Fits over there had a 5speed manual or 5speed auto. No CVT over there :/

some people told me that if flushing the cvt tranny will damage the body valve part, is it true?

i dont believe so, maybe.
but they just flushing the oil from the CVT, its connected into a pump type thing through some of the radiator hoses or something. i forget what honda said.

if the methods of flushing cvt oil via the radiator hoses it wouldn't damage the Body valve parts. that's make sense for me. I wish that my car is still on warranty and get the fresh new cvt Tranny. .. because in indonesia the price of fresh cvt tranny is about $ 2,000..

Yeh, apparently for me the damage and shudder is coming from the start clutch, which will cost me around AUD$1600
but after the flush it was hardly noticable.
infact i gave a R34 GTS-T skyline a thrashing today, he kept taking off as fast as he could to stop at the next set of lights and set them for me.
so eventually i was beside him at the front and i just planted the accelerator at around 70% and left him for dust, since im on my P's (begginer license) i stopped at 70kmh the speed limit n backed off, but the skyline man just had to go to 90kmh to make his point ahaha.

that's cool mate... just remember the speed limit... if you want no speed limit. Please visit to Indonesia, but the traffic is so crowded.. ehehehe

yeh thats true.
but i would rather take it to the track then to indonesia, purely for the price ahaha.

I have been told that for MY12 the CVT gear box has been removed, replaced by the classic one. I've asked when I bought it.
Could that be true?
Regards.
