Hello car Doc. Hope you are doing well? I just bought a Honda city 2007, I was driving to minna from makurdi and observed the gear wasn't selecting properly. The indicator on dash board for drive D began fluctuating. What could the problem be? Please advise so I know if I should return the car and get back my money or it's a minor issue. Thanks

princetom1, where art thou, ur investigative skills are required once again!!!

but guy ehn, u suppose dey work as private detective!!! every single post on the internet can and will be tried to use (if not used) against u in the course of life!!

princetom1:


Yes, you already say it all. The person buying this vehicle need to check everything that has to do with that vehicle transmission, maybe it's d gear or the brain box and so on... In short words, a good technician is needed before paying for this vehicle....

Modified : Cardoctor didn't reply op, so, i can't really tell what happened afterward. But if u ask me why op is selling so soon, yea, ur guess is as good as mine

GAZZUZZ:
guys calm down, it is a honda city, a blinking D light is an error code, but not always a death sentence. Even if you put wrong size of tyres the D light will blink, and when you scan codes will be wrong tyre size .

seriously..... Idonbelieveit.
but for the fact that we can already perceive lies from way back in time..... op really needs to come up with a very good ezcuse.
something like, "I later sold that Ride and bought another same ride of same year" and stuff like that; will do!!!!
but all the same like gazuzz said it might just be something as simple as wrong tire size!
happy sales op!

car Doc told me to use the right ATF and that was all. The mechanic used normal Honda ATF and it almost ruined the transmission. It was CVT ATF that was required. After changing it, it worked fine, a good technician could come along and test for as long as he wishes. Car docs number is on his profile, prospective buyer could contact him regarding my discussion with him and conclusions. Thanks man,
oga detective, lol

scarr:


And to think I was really interested in buying this ride!

Any idea how much changing the complete transmission would cost

Maybe oga Gazzuzz can help to diagnose this problem

joebeckz:
funny as it may seem, changing the transmission of a Honda city is only N20, 000.
Make enquiries to be sure. It's maintenance is really cheap. I am not selling my point because I wanna make a sale. Trust me nothing do the transmission. U want more details, pm me or 08099449232

That's why I said honesty is important, you didn't have to lie that you bought the car in 2015( I see you have edited the post) when you just bought it recently and had transmission issues.

I am still interested none the less. Now I have two questions?

1. Why are you selling a car you just bought recently

2. Your location

joebeckz:
lol make enquiries na

GAZZUZZ:


I do not have to.

In 2008 I owned a 2007 city, sold it in 2014, in march I bought a honda city 2008, it's still being used as an uber vehicle. I am up to date on every bolt and knot on honda city 2007-2009.

Happy sales.
