QUOTE(melvinho @ Aug 12 2014, 11:18 AM) is CVT. Oil change cost around RM300 Keep goes into limp mode due to belt slip / hot. QUOTE(k!nex @ Aug 12 2014, 01:53 PM) I will not buy CVT cars either. It doesn't sound lively at all. And too much transmission loss. I do agree CVT oil is more expensive. City 01 4AT - Transmission oil required 2.5L of Honda ATF-Z1 . RM22 X 3 bottles = RM66 , + labour charge RM 20 = RM86 for 20,000km City 03 CVT- RM128 for 4 litres Honda CVTF. +labour charge RM20 = RM148 for 30,000km. And nowadays CVT can repair or not like those normal Torque Converter auto gearbox ??? I can see advertisement everywhere offering repair service for normal auto, but CVT I really never seen before . Buy manual, would never meet with such issue.

QUOTE(Demonic Wrath @ Aug 12 2014, 09:42 PM) People have to test drive a CVT car before purchasing and see if they prefer it to Auto. The feeling of driving a CVT is different compared to conventional 4-speed or 6-speed auto. and they will say that cars with cvt lack of power cuz they do not feel the rubber band effect

CVT rubber band effect is more of the TCU issue than the hardware.

QUOTE(dstl1128 @ Aug 13 2014, 10:05 AM) CVT rubber band effect is more of the TCU issue than the hardware. correct case in example is the Mitsu INVECS III CVT and Nissan's X-tronic CVT both are manufacatured by the same company - JATCO both both have different "software" - i.e. the TCU (transmission control unit) the INVECS III have bad rubber band effect on low speed acceleration the X-Tronic has an improved experience

QUOTE(melvinho @ Aug 12 2014, 04:07 PM) Now is alternator problem. Part change so far. 1) Rear Spoiler 2) Flywheel 3) Starter Motor 4) ABS Motor 5) Brake Master Pump 6) Alternator LEMON.. I DRIVE LEMON. My CVT stuck @ 2.5k RPM. I step the padel until floor also stuck @ 2.5k and burning smell came out.LEL. I think yours is more like lemon car issue rather than CVT problem... MR_alien....your Mirage has so many problems? This post has been edited by Matrix: Aug 13 2014, 10:47 AM

Even EPS motor can overheat and stated in the manual eg, If xxxx symbol appear, means EPS overheated; will harder to turn the steering, or stop one side and let it cool down; not for racing.
Most pple like drive 'auto' like put D forever even on stationary >30min.

Saw it everytime with the brake light so bright on my face. That's why we have so many gearbox failure eg, DSG, CVT, AT, MT (not gearbox but clutch wear fast), yes even MT some pple just engaged in 1 and on the pressed on the clutch that long.

And yeah, can feel rubber band effect at low speed acceleration on my Inspira ,.while the new City, not noticeable at all.
