CVT gearbox problems,find me.
trueblue:
Hi all,
recently encountered some problem with my reverse gear.
after a certain period of forward drive, when i switch to reverse,
my car will stall for 1 to 3 sec before it engage into reverse, and comes with quite a jerk.
when i go back to D and R again, the jerk still exist but less violent.
but when i D for some distance and R again, whole cycle repeats. :crycry:
now the symptom became worse, sometimes when i R, i feel totally no engagement on my R, and i need to step hard on my brake while lightly tap the accelerator to "engage" the reverse, and of course, with the compliment of the rather hard jerk to the car.
I went to TC for a look and they told me its most likely GB issue. tell me to either overhaul it or change it. I ask them is there anything i can change to salvage the GB as my car only let 3yrs+, they say nothing. but from some online forums i read there are still a few things to try before it reaches GB stage.
so from the symptom confirm is my GB problem? and the only soultion is to either change or overhaul?
thanks in advance for the advices.

Hi bro, I changed my CVT fluid and the symptoms did improve. Less jerking, sometimes only. You may want to try that.

Hi bro,
I am also having the same sympton as yours and was advise to either change or overhaul the gearbox. Change the cvt oil but still the same. Lowest price qoute for changing recond gearbox was 1.8k while overhauling is around 2.7k and i am still considering between these two options.

How serious is yours? Mine will still have jerking effect during morning drive. 1.8k for changing second hand gearbox? I will be abit skeptical on that price. Where did you get the quote for 2.7k(ellipse auto)? I am still KIV-ing on my gearbox. As I am living on the east side, I found another company quoting 2k for changing second hand gearbox @ Jackson powertrain. The lady there told me that there is no way to overhaul CVT, say that those workshops that claim to do overhaul actually just take out the old GB and change a recon GB.

If cannot overhaul, then how to find recon gearbox?
