Thanks, I’ve resolved the issue with “ Lubegard instant shudder fixx”

Just bought it today and drove a bit and the shudder is gone. Let’s see how long it lasts.

Can a 75 amps olternator charge a 84amps battery better than using a 100amps olternator. ?

Your charging will be very slow with the 75amps alternator and 84amps battery, this is dependent on the electrical demand of the car ( its electricity powered accessories), for example, if this car has accessories like electric power steering, electric water pump, then you'll be making a mistak with the 75amps alternator.
It will be slow to charge, because the alternator's job is to power these accessories while charging your battery simultaneously, a 75amp rated alternator will produce a maximum current of 75amps, if that is shared by the accessories and the actual charging of the battery, then you can expect a below optimal performance.

A Jetta with the 2.5 inline 6 or 1.6 inline 4 is just fine. No too much complexities but ensure it's well checked before buying.

The Honda is newer, there's likelihood of a lower mileage when compared to the Es 350 2011. Hondas are great vehicles, and It does seem the lexus ES are way more expensive to maintain or fix, should a problem arise, good luck.

[quote author=Baldmarv post=131138670][/quote]Hello bro, please where can I get this item?
My transmission slips.

Jerks when going from 1 to 2 and vice versa.
Probably this item will help till I am able to save up and buy another tranny.

The issue with your transmission is most definitely a failing pressure valve in the transmission.
That stuff might not help.
But you're free to give a try.

Thanks bro, just trying to exhaust all possible cheap options and also trying to buy time till I am able to save up for another tranny.

I suspect same thing too, just that I can't identify which exactly. After scanning the tranny, there's no error code. I washed and clicked the she solenoids on the tranny, same thing.

However, when the car has been driven for few minutes and has warned up, the tranny works perfectly well, selects well and fast.

So in my thinking, a pressure valve is failing but I don't know which it is and I feel like this is a small issue to go buy a new tranny for...only if I can identify the faulty or failing component.

If I open the sump, are there solenoids in there?
On the external body of the tranny, how many sensors are there that I can test?
Kindly assist.
Thanks.

I understand how draining the thought of replacing an entire transmission because of a failing tiny component could be.
The DIY way of testing those solenoid valves here is by sending 12v to them and listen for it's click.

Thanks bro, I have tested them and they clicked well.
They also have good resistance.

The matter tire me jare.
Changing a whole transmission because of ordinary solenoid that cant be identified.
Youtube video is pointing to the solenoid A and B. (The twin solenoid)

Hello Guru's in the house.
Please I need your help on my 07 Accord.
My DRL light (American Spec light as we popularly call it) is not working.
The fuse is ok and the bulbs are working fine.
I scanned and got the error code B1079.

Anyone with idea on how to get this fixed?
