It was der when I bought the car , drove it from Abuja to Owerri , someone help me purchase it ,I noticed thr jerking during shifting on my way from Abuja to Enugu, ..

Now like a week ago I start experiencing jerking when I want to shift from park to Reserve or drive or D1-2 . ...

But if I off the ignition and start the car , it will correct and start shifting properly.

From your solution I have seen similar solutions on YouTube and I think for Crv some of the solenoid are accessible from outside, I just have to save up and get ready.

First is to remove the old ATF and put new one . And make sure it's not overfilled. Den start from there .

You say you have a check engine light on your dash.

It has been there ever since you purchased the vehicle.

Why not go to new market or alaba and get a good electrician to scan the vehicle for you and get out its trouble codes so that you will know what and what to replace or service to make your problems go away?

Androidking:
Thanks Alot my new experience now , sometimes if I start the car and engaged gear to either R-D 1-2 any of these the car will jerk and when off thr car and start again it will engage smoothly , did u experience that too and i think my gear oil is over filled

Do you have a check engine light on your dash?

Hand over to who?

a BIGGER thief?

Olorun Maje ooohhh

In my opinion it's better for 1000 people around me to be making just one million naira yearly selling in their tiny 2 by 2 shops than for only one person near me to earn N1 trillion naira in sales of only one movie.

In the land of the blind . . . The one eyed man is king.

Too many radio stations. Half of them only use yoruba as their broadcast language.

I will tune and tune and tune till I find the one's that won't be blasting pasuma or obesere into my ears whenever I'm driving

Slight improvement noticed with my mpg after replacement of 02 sensor.
Jerking has also stopped after it was discovered that my sump got pulled in and was beaten out.

Gear switch changed erased d light blink.

Car is on test drive for now 😔

You did all that you did and yet overlooked installing your thermostat? The simplest thing that you are to do?

Just look at how cold your engine temperature reads . . .

Brace up guys, we will definitely be hearing this word more often during this regime

Envy is the problem of you guys.

As in ehn . . . Serious jealousy and envy

Here we are talking about a man inventing a vehicle like a car that can comfortably take passengers from point A to point B.

Then these other people have brought out their own contraption called a vehicle that is not useful for any purpose. Why will a car want to go front and back on a road without turning when it is not a train on rail tracks. Where else in the world is such a contraption in use?

Na wao

oladele239:
Scanned today
I was told thermostat is absent
Plus upstream 02 sensor

Yup just as I suspected. Those two issues will make your fuel dissappear like smoke in the wind.

Your upstream O2 sensor is the one fixed into the pipe just near your engine's exhaust manifold. Check it's wiring and get a proper replacement to fix that issue.

Then go to the market, ask for any shop where they sell tokumbo honda k24 engines. Ask the seller to remove a thermostat from one of their engine's for sale and allow you buy it then fix it in your engine.

You should see a remarkable improvement with your mpg after doing these. Then don't forget to call up and swear for whoever sold the vehicle to you after disabling the check engine light.

Cheers.

oladele239:
Ok
Apparently the check engine light was disabled as you said. Here's my complete dashboard
It's v4

Chai! It's a pity

Well at least try to look at the bright side, now you can go ahead to get a scan and see what is really causing your bad mpg problem.

Namzy:
Mine is better than yours but still worse than the mpg stated. I'm getting like 9 mpg instead of about 21 mpg as I do mostly city driving. No check engine light but my scanner is showing intermittent misfire at cylinder 2 under misfire count. Which is not enough to trigger a check engine light. I'll change the spark plug and engine air filter and check the mpg again. With high fuel costs, we must aspire to get the best MPG possible

Cylinder misfires usually set temporary DTC codes and will only flash your check engine lights but also make your brainbox compensate by firing the other spark plugs in a manner to try and balance the required power needed without the malfunctioning cylinder. It will definitely make you consume more fuel. Even fake and substandard spark plugs cause bad mpg.

Make sure you get original iridiums and your coils are in order as well as you go to pick up the new intake air filter.

oladele239:
Poor mpg was my greatest fear while trying to get a car. Well I guess it's here now

This particular type of vehicle is fairly easy to troubleshoot. What engine does yours have? V6 or 4plugs? Well since you say you currently have no check engine light displayed on your dash and you're sure it has never displayed since you got the vehicle then I'd hazard a guess that either one of the following four things are involved . . .

1. Your vehicle had maybe displayed an error code but it cleared itself and went into the temporary DTC storage in the brainbox (it won't keep the check engine light permanently displayed) but the issue might still be there. A scan would let you know for sure.

2. Your vehicle is running in an open loop continuously (radiator cooling fans wired directly to ignition and thermostat removed) which will always make your vehicle consume more fuel no matter what because the engine will always be cold.

3. Your IACV (throttle body) is malfunctioning because of a vacuum leak. You will have to check your engine idle speed and maybe perform an idle relearn procedure to get your engine's rpm range back to default settings. It's usually between 700rpm - 850rpm when the gearbox is put in park or neutral mode P or N . So check to make sure your vehicle is idling properly.

4. Maybe you bought bad fuel that burns fast OR Your fuel level guage isn't properly calibrated (the sender unit on the fuel pump housing in the fuel tank has some issue or the floater rod is bent) , a mechanic can check this out for you later whenever you are changing the fuel pump. Sometimes mechanics can be careless and hit the fuel pump housing and it can lead to such issues.

It is also possible (especially if you recently purchased this vehicle) the seller has found a way to disable the check engine light to decieve the buyer into believing that all is well. The way to rule out this issue is by observing if the check engine light actually llights up once you insert and turn the ignition key to the II position and goes off once you've successfully cranked the car.

In all the pictures you've been uploading you've only been focusing on your fuel guage area. Don't you know the information on the entire cluster is relevant and necessary for troubleshooting issues? That's the window into your vehicle's wellbeing.

Next time take two pictures for me to see if your issue can easily be resolved online. Take one clear picture of your entire instrument cluster once you start the vehicle up cold (probably after it has been parked overnight) then drive it somewhere for 30 mins, park somewhere without shutting off the engine and take another picture of your instrument cluster again and post them here.

Alright!! The oil removed was free from debris too.

Even on the drain plug? There should be little tiny metals stuck to the drain plug because its magnetic. It is normal. It's just part of the clutch deteriorating as normal wear and tear as these vehicles arr quite old.

Just open it up and check to see larger particles of the clutch. If you don't see any then go ahead and check the solenoids (clean all of them for good measure) and refill with proper fluid before testing. If you don't see any remedy then your valve body is definitely culprit.

mejai:
Okay bro, i will check it out. I have been on ur posts about such. I just want to try out all avenue b4 closing my mind on gearbox change.
Thanks

That is the proper thing to do if the funds to change isn't floating around near you. The k24 gearbox isn't hard to work on. Most of these issues are tiny. So far your clutch packs are still okay the valve body can be replaced in a rebuild. If you open it up and you don't see metal particles in the sump (worn out/degraded clutches) then you have a 50% probability of just changing out the solenoid and you're good to go.

Good luck

oladele239:
Please o I want to ask o
If my fuel consumption is ok
I don't really know how it works
Just go this accord 03

Filled the tank and reset my meter
So far I have the below readings on my fuel guage

Pics attached

That seems like abysmally bad fuel consumption I'm sure you have a check engine light illuminated on your cluster. Get a scan so you know what system is affecting your mpg.

mejai:
@conner44, what do u think about P0756 for honda accord DC i4. the gear is mad now. slips, doesn't enter D, D flashes light.
It enters R and slips too. I have changed both dual and single linear solenoid. But for the code up there, I am worried if this particular model has that shift solenoid B.

Yep your vehicle has the shift solenoid valve B. From your code it is either malfunctioning or clogged with debri due to bad/dirty fluid. If you've changed your transmission fluid recently and the issue persisted I believe it's time for a teardown to see if there are any other issues present within the gearbox as you change/clean the affected solenoid (also don't forget to check the continuity and condition of its wiring while you're in there.

Your problem is that it's located inside the gearbox and not on the outside. See the pictures below for its location and check my prior posts here for a short guide on how to access it for maintenance. If you open up the gearbox and change it out/clean it up and you didn't see any improvements with the functionality of the gearbox then it means whatever is affecting the flow of fluid to that solenoid is situated within the valve body itself in which case you can either rebuild or replace the gearbox.

I knew it. The next thing is to put their eye on the domiciliary accounts of citizens and restrict outflow/withdrawal of foreign currency.

Igbos are far outnumbered in the federal red and green chambers. North has more seats followed by South west then south south before the south east. The wickedness of the Gowon administration skewed their representation that way to weaken their power whenever the day comes when igbo leaders will be united in pushing for a Biafra state.

So in my opinion igbos should not bother about going to the federal government to ask for Biafra. Let them keep minding their business and allow all the other tribes to rule till either nigeria gets better or gets worse to the point that even the people who have their brothers as presidents get fed up with their leaders uselessness and push for a restructured nation by themselves.

Abeg share link, I'm so much interested

Cheerfulgiver started a group for drivers in 2022, another one in 2023 and he will bring up the new one for 2024 very soon. I suggest you wait till that one is up so you can join in and get carried along.

He's an awesome teacher and very meticulous in his methods (which work) , so far you're open to unlearn and relearn some driving habits you've picked up on the job so far you will benefit from the wealth of knowledge he has concerning ehailng be it on uber, bolt, indrive or rida.

jceesquare:
Is the tech person not supposed to have the fancy scan tool himself?

You and I know very well that most Nigerians patronise kazeems and kazeem get levels.

So if his current kazeem doesn't have a high end scan tool then maybe he is friends with a higher kazeem who does

temi4fash:
I changed the oil about 9 months ago or there about.

I used Addinol CVT oil.. it's a CVT transmission.

How can I scan the gear box.. is it the regular scanners.

Thank you for your input

No you can not use the regular scanners for a cvt gearbox. You need a high end scan tool. Find someone who is an auto electrician that has links to someone who owns such a tool so that you can read fault codes from your cvt gearbox.

Namzy:
Lol I remember having this issues for years until I changed the transmission when other faults developed. I was the only one that knows how to "shift" gently to avoid the jerk

Exactly, this issue is very tiresome and can make you vex and change the entire gearbox. You being the owner can manage it for years but you'd be scared of giving any random person your car to drive because they won't understand how to manage the gearbox shifting issue. If you give someone who is carefree and he drives it for a while with the shift flares, tyre screeching and jerking that person might end up damaging your gearbox mounts both up and down.

Androidking:
Hello guys Honda CrV 2007

Which type of injector cleaner is good for it , am scared of just picking d ones I saw in fuel stations


Secondly please what's the type of Gear oil recommended for Honda CrV 2007. I think my gear is slipping especially when it wasn't to enter gear 3 it takes time or it jerks while shifting , at a point it won't shift , for the gear to enter I have to gently apply the throttle , and it's quite frustrating

You can use any good brand injector cleaner you see for sale at those big brand petrol station pumps. If you know your injectors are partially clogged with dirty it is proper procedure to go to your mechanic for a tune up where he will clean your throttle body off carbon and then remove all your injectors and clean them one by one manually with some fuel and battery. For me if I feel my injectors might be partially clogged and I want to clean it without using all those fancy injector cleaners i usually fill my tank to half and then buy one litre of pain thinner and pour it into my fuel tank (note that paint thinner is very corrosive so make sure you have enough fuel in your tank before you think of trying this method as it might destroy the seals on your injectors if you didn't dilute it properly).

The proper gearbox fluid for tour ho da crv is ATF-DW1. Don't use anything (else except a proper dextron 3 which is temporary and must be replaced with the original fluid within 3,000 kilometres ro be safe) in order not to create problems with your transmission system.

As for the issue you're experiencing with your gearbox (which I marked in bold up there in your writeup) . I have experienced it before. Mine was a shift flare while shifting up from gear 1 to gear 2 only. With the help of a scan I was able to pinpoint the culprit after spending much on changing transmission fluid twice (I used a fake first and then switched to the original one) , cleaning the solenoids on the exterior of the gearbox and changing my transmission range switch.

I documented the procedure used in tackling the issue in the posts below :

https://www.nairaland.com/996664/maintenance-tips-honda-cars/342#112199773

But remember I was able to pinpoint the issue I had because I ran a scan. It was a small issue. I was initially thinking i would soon buy another gearbox and was saving up towards that before i found the issue. Scanning is important so you will know what exactly you need to look at in your gearbox.

temi4fash:
I went on a long trip and I notice my car (Honda City 2007) would disengage itself from the gear. It would stop selecting gears but it would move.

But as soon as I park and allow it to cool for a while it moves and selects gears normally. After a like maybe 5 mins drive its disengages from the gear again but once i wait and it cools it moves normally.

Whike it was moving once it disengaged itself, I entered a pot hole it connected back and moved a bit before it disengaged again.

There is oil in the gear...

What could be wrong?

Is your own the type with the regular automatic or the cvt gearbox? When last did you change your transmission fluid? What exactly fluid did you use? Now that the weather is hot if you have substandard fluid in your sump it will affect your gearbox due to it's temperature not being within the right operational parameters especially after a short drive.

See, try to get a scan whenever that lncident happens next so that you can pinpoint where exactly the issue is coming from so as not to compound the issue with your mechanic.

From experience, it could either be caused by dirty/worn out fluid, wrong type of fluid (solution outright change of fluid) , an electrical issue eg. one of your solenoids malfunctioning (solution change of bad solenoid or tracing loose wiring) or worse a valve body issue (solution change of gearbox)

So apart from the fluid change the other solutions will depend on a comprehensive scan of your vehicle's gearbox system. Especially the portions I bolded in the write-up above. For the issue to rectify itself after you drove into a pothole it is possible it might be loose wiring.

Me wey I know you will perish lying.
Did Reno ask that you dig up your wretched Igbo grandfather from the grave of hell when he laid bare his fact.

Where I come from only crooks liars n bastards claim the evidence prove or witness are in hell.

But when reno laid his own fact he didn't give any links or source of verification yet you believe it to be true. I gave my own and you're trying to use all the foul words in your limited vocabulary to reply me

As per the bolded above. Sorry if all the people who die where you come from go directly to hell. I now understand where your bile is coming from.

Front0lane:
So you expect me to believe what you have to say because you can not lie or what I do not understand.

If any living soul does not have access to the recorder or can produce it from wherever I will not be giving any Igbo a benefit of a doubt but it will be exceedingly foolish knowing the lying antecedent of organization such as ipob you support.

If he played it give me the link to Ojukwu broadcast I will list to the broadcast n hear the recorder Ojukwu played before I can believe this your claim failure to do that na tales by sunlight you de talk.

Do you have any elderly person as a part of your family? Father over 70 years of age? Who was doing well enough as at the 1960's to own a radio? maybe a living grandfather or grandmother?

Okay what of elderly relatives? Uncles? Aunts? You can ask them for their own version of the broadcast (as you claim only igbos lie and your people tell the truth)

Front0lane:
I know you igbos are born to lie n many of you will perish from lying but on this case I want to give you the benefit of a doubt please provide the link to where Ojukwu read his own Aburi accord I like to go over it so I can correct the notion I have always had pls not failure to provide a link or at least point me to where I can source it mean you are lying which is what I truly n sincerely believe but that little benefit of a doubt is left open just so if I am mistaken.

Ojukwu didn't read anything to anybody. He didn't have to.

Ojukwu went to the aburi accord meeting in accra with an electronic voice recorder. It was small and portable and he hid it on his person throughout the duration of that meeting. Nobody believed he had something of that sort because it was relatively new technology at that time to have a small electronic recorder but ojukwu (who was rich, connected and had connections to foreign help and tech) had such a device.

He recorded the meeting in totality and everybody at that meeting had their individual voices recorded clearly to be easily heard and recognised. It was this same recording he played on air on his radio broadcast that exposed the lies of the then federal government headed by Gowon.

I don't have a link to the recording as the Internet wasn't available then for it to be uploaded somewhere and I can't seem to find a written transcription of it too (which might even be easily edited by the Nigerian government to clear themselves of any wrong doing)

If you wish to know the truth then ask any aged person who was alive at the time with a transistor radio and get your answers.

I have no reason to lie about this. Only the Nigerian government does.
