Yes sir, this is possible, but conversion to manual transmission will entail the replacement of a lot of ancilliary parts... sabi ng honda lalagpas pa daw ng 300k.

Grabe, hope you City/Jazz peeps dont go through this headache. The car was acquired for around 470k.....3/5ths pala nung cost ay tranny.

My theory also is that the metal belt inside the CVT might be slipping (although they claim that the metal belt will not slip) or that the pulleys might be damaged.

haaay pare, problema di sila nagdadala ng parts.... i'm never gonna endorse a cvt trannied car ever again kung ganito policy nila. i mean, pucha, you cant even overhaul the damn thing!?

how about replacing it na lang with a conventional A/T tranny (not CVT)? wouldn't that cost much cheaper?

the car has less than 45k kms on the clock by the way.

meron na kayang CVT transmission sa mga surplusan? how about sa ibang bansa?

Why haven't they tried the CVT reset?

A surplus CVT? It's possible if you can get a Japanese front-cut... which would cost much less than 300k.

Teka, tanung lang, diba dapat di mag roll ang auto tranny (D) on inclines, say sa bridge or driveway ng garage. Parang na defeat yun purpose kung bakit fav ng mga ladies ang auto tranny dahil no need to make "timpla" the gas and clutch in a manual tranny. Napansin ko ito when i drove the altis of my friend and was about to park it sa garage nila. nag slid down nun binitawan ko yun gas...gosh!!! hirap timplahin.

Nope. Some ATs will roll back on slopes.

It all depends on how much power the car makes, and at what rpm the torque converter locks up. Until the torque converter is locked (usually at 2500 rpm or more), an AT car can be pushed backwards in gear if it has very little power and you just let it idle.

The Jazz has no torque converter, but I'm sure there's a feature there that acts like one when it's idling at a stop.

hehehe..buti pa pala ang matic, kahit mahal, may repair/overhaul kit...or your can easily opt for a surplus..
