When does u guy change the CVT transmission oil

[lokets]

I changed at 40,000km as Honda Thailand recommend but I plan to change at 20,000km instead after I run on my car over 50,000km cause I tend to use 7 speeds mode quite a lot.

Hope this post help!

I think change of CVT oil at every 40K km sounds reasonable. The original workshop request is change for every 60K km. That is close enough & probably better for the CVT.

BTW, any one knows, besides this juddering problem, is the CVT otherwise durable? In other words, if the start clutch survives, and CVT oil is changed religiously, would the CVT last a very, very long time? This is a silly question perhaps because Jazz CVT has not been around for too long comparatively speaking.

That's about right. The CVT specific oil here cost $81/4L - and here (a particular QLD Honda parts shop) you can walk up to the counter and buy, I guess as many cans as you need.

they told me that the latest CVT Oil is not for public i can only buy a previous version CVT Oil.

What a load of crap. Go and try another Honda parts/sales place. Ignore this group of liars.

I would do em every 20k if you are planning to keep the car

I agree with you.

If you tend to use 7 speed mode quite a lot, so it's reasonable to change at 20,000km but I think if just a normal use 40,000km should be Ok!

I'm Keen on this new CVT oil.

I'm having shuddering problems with my Jazz, it occurs mainly right at the start when i press the throttle.
Also i get jerkiness when i accelerate upwards to 0-60km/hr.


Today, I just changed the CVT oil to the usual 'standard' red honda tranny oil as it's been 55,000kms since last change, so better try something than nothing......

My car's done 115,000kms.
