The best thing to do is to get a scan tool and scan your vehicle. But it could be a fuel filter problem or the transmission fluid is low. Nicholas4: 2004 Corolla. It happens in the afternoon but not as bad and it resolves itself quickly |

Please I need experienced advise on this Hmmmmm, did you changed the kick completely or have it worked on. If u have always changed the kick starter, do you know the part(s) that kept getting bad on the kick. The will really help diagnose the fault.

Nicholas4: Good evening house. I have a very pressing issue.
Whenever I start my car in the morning and shift my gear to drive, the car doesn't accelerate well. The engine keeps revving but the car does not accelerate accordingly.
However, the issue revolves itself after driving for few minutes when the engine has become a bit hot.
Please what could be the cause. Good evening sir. What car do u have. And do have you notice if it happens in the afternoon after a long time parked.  |

erico2k2: If the answer you are after is if its good on fuel then what you should be looking at is if its 4 or 6 plugs, cos there is a massive difference, fuel economy and 6 plugs cannot be used in one sentence as an average earner Hmmmm. The difference is not as much as people thinks. It depends on what ever the user wants. |

nymphomaniac: Hi guys, my car has an issue with the transmission. The clutch is soft and when pressed, I won’t be able to engage gear. It happened about 4 weeks ago, the mechanic said it was because my clutch fluid was leaking and he changed the kits and then poured fresh oil. Yesterday it happened again...could it be something else or that initial fault wasn’t fixed properly ?
Now I understand why there was progression from manual tranny to automatic. I love manual though but this clutch stress is pissing me off
Cc nurey kingreign Definitely, there is still a lickage somewhere or some elements in the clutch pod is bad. Put I still believe is licking still. Sir Eddy |

[quote author=ayo2008 post=92483656]Gurus kindly help out
I use a Honda Civic 03 automatic transmission
I noticed when the gear is engaged in drive it drags except when put on Reverse gear.
I ran a scan and this is the error
CVT speed change control valve malfunction.
What is the way out pls? I was told that I should prepare to buy a new gear?
Await your response
/quote/ You should have included the fault or error code. Anyway there is a solenoid at the back right corner of the engine. When the filter gets dirt or bad, the gear begins to malfunction.
