Note: Becareful of the Fluid you use. Search on ozhonda. there is a big discussion about CVT fluid. Wrong move and it will cost you 8000 to replace the CVT gearbox.
Ps: can you do a flush for me??

make sure you use honda cvtf and not z1. z1 wont do any harm but the cvtf is a much better fluid for the cvt. if you are not sure how to do it it may be better to take it to a dealer. get em to relearn the cvt memory while they're at it

noob question: how do you know when you need to reflush the cvt or when the starter clutch is gone? At the moment it sounds exactly like a manual car when i'm rolling ~10km/h then very gently tap the accelerator. Sounds like a manual car with a worn clutch. My car also does a bit of a jerk... now do i need a cvt flush? or can it be done under honda warranty?
the recalibrating part is wat scared me. otherwise i'd do it myself. paid honda 300 or so to flush mine.
$300?
duuuude u paid double what u should
and for those that wanna diy the recalibration

5. Drive the vehicle to above 60kph.
6. Decelerate for more than five (5) seconds, without using the brakes. Perform steps 5 and 6 3-4 times.
7. Test drive from stationary several times to check the start clutch operates normally without undue vibration.
