Morning.

Please I drive a Honda Accord 2004(Automatic transmission). Recently, i have been having issues with the gear. When the gear is on drive, it hesitates and revs before jerking forward, and I notice this is usually occurs between the GEAR 1-2 on the dashboard.

The issue actually started after I took my car for engine wash; then i noticed whenever i changed gears; either from drive to reverse or park, it jerks forward of backwards depending on the direction. I took it to my mechanic, he changed the gear switch and oil. The jerking during the gear change stopped, but the revving and jerking while accelerating didnt. Although, as soon as the speed increases to like 6okm/hr, or above gear2 sign on the dashboard, it doesnt occur anylonger. Until i slow down, and when i try to increase speed, it does so again.

I've tried two seperate mechanics, who have also tried changing the gear switch but problem still persists.

Do you have an idea what could be wrong?

Pls what's your opinion on resur engine restoration kit

AutoMoTech:

Pls kindly provide answers to the earlier question.
In addition... this issue needs to be diagnosed to be able to pinpoint the real cause.it could ge electrical or mechanical. On the electrical side, Your transmission makes use of quite a number of solenoids.abt 3 pressure control solenoid valves, and abt 5 shift control solenoids. And also fluid pressure switches. All this work in certain predetermined sequence to give u ur desired result. If any of these solenoids fail it can result in the vibration u experience.
And there is a possibility it has nothing to do with the transmission. A faulty sensor sending wrong signal to the PCM can also cause similar jerking and surging during acceleration.
So pls kindly visit a competent auto technician to help with indepth diagnosis of ur car systems

jceesquare:

When your mechanic flushed the gear oil, did you take note of the colour and smell of the oil?
Kindly pull the gear dip stick close to your nose and confirm if it smells burnt or has particles on it.

Thanks..
I wasn't there when he changed he the oil, but i remember him mentioning that the oil was light.

I'll probably have to take it to Honda place at Mile2.
Seems this guys are just doing trial and error

Good day my engineer please I av Chevrolet malibu 2008.the engine occasionally went off once in a while whenever I match the brake most especially if am in bad spot of the road.what might be the cause.

AutoMoTech:

U most likely have a faulty brake booster causing a vacuum leak into the engine. Its allowi mm g too much air into the cylinder reason for the engine going off.
Repair might be changing the brake booster.

ayodele2012:
thanks a lot.pls can I get ur number so we can talk and where is ur workshop.

AutoMoTech:


you are welcome sir. Number is 07062222998
workshop address is on my signature however I haven't resumed fully as i am working on putting some other things in place.
pls do contact autologic if he is closer to you.
or find a competent mechanic to help you confirm the diagnosis and carryout the fix.

I really appreciate the good works you are doing, I noticed coolant loss on my Toyota Highlander 2004, took it to the mechanic and he replaced radiator cap, still had same issues and car got overheated, took it back and noticed a leak on the plastic part on the top of the radiator, he replaced the plastic part and still same issue of coolant loss after driving, while washing the car this morning, I noticed lots of coolant on the rear floor just behind the front passenger seat, the coolant gets so much and also little around the front passenger just along the door side, but that if the rear floor seems so plenty after driving what could be the cause and solution I would appreciate thanks

ayodele2012:
thanks my engineer but hope is not a major fault.

I drive a 2007 Camry buh ma engine producing light blue smoke when d engine is cold. My oil is far less than normal. What will be the cause pls

AutoMoTech:
got questions? ask me.

AshipaEk0:



XC90

Handling was wonky and had noises on front driver side wheel.

Upon inspection, was advised to change

Shock Absorber
Lower Arm bushing
Steering link
Ball joint.

Which were replaced.

Had wheel alignment done


Still have some noise when I get into potholes on that wheel.

Funniest part is that it seems the wheel alignment made the steering worse


What do you think?

AutoMoTech:

Morning. Sorry for the late reply. I need to ask some questions please.
The replacement parts you got were they new or used?
Also when they suggested you replace those parts did dey completely dismantle the whole suspension parts or just d mechanic just looked and said you should replace this and that?
Reason i ask is this. Suspension noise atimes can be super difficult to diagnose. Some bushings will be bad and by just looking u think dey r good until u remove them then u see dey r completely bad.
Sometyms missing parts can cause this noise. Worked on a honda crv once. We replaced all the old parts bt noise never went away until someone mentioned if the shock pad is there. I said no cuz it didnt come with the shock. So we tot d shock dt was there was oem cuz the ride was a recent model crv.
Well we put the shock pad and d noise went away straight. So my advice
1. Ensure the replacements parts are good.no guessing.
2. Dismantle the whole suspension and check all bushings. REplace bad ones
3. Look out for missing parts, check the steering system, exhaust and wateva is related to the chassis.

My car suddenly went off while negotiating a full turn a u-turn. It happened twice today.

Canadanow:
Weldone bro. I changed my timing belt and water pump and my car brought a check engine light but my car is running smoothly for now. No overheating and no water leak anymore.

I scanned it and the code was P0018.

autologic:

You need to state the model of car for easier analysis , however what will make a car to go off this circumstances is unexpected load on the vehicle powertrain system which the ecu is unable to make compensation for or the compensation is made but not reflected on the output .
Check the throttle system assembly for dirts
