Hi,

I have a 1999 Honda Civic EX Auto Transmission.

I would just like to know if anyone here is experiencing a weird grinding noise everytime you shift the transmission from either Park, Neutral or Reverse to Drive.

It is just a 2 or 3 seconds noise after shifting to drive and stepping on the pedal. It's kinda annoying though...don't want to think yet that there is a problem in the auto transmission...

 

I had the same problem along with longer engagement time. Does it sound like a whir and click? Long story short, my first gear was completely gone and I needed to swap my transmission.

 

it's just a whir sound for 2 or 3 seconds everytime I shift to drive...how long have you been dealing with this before you had it swapped? same transmission? auto?

for how much did it cost you?

 

For me, it was a whir and click when you pressed the gas lightly to start moving. It started out one day and became to troublesome to bother after 3 months or so . A used transmission I sourced from criagslist that had 95k for $175.00

Bump for someone else to help out b/c it this may be something else then a worn tranny. Solenoids?

 

These transmissions do have a couple valve body springs that tend to break and cause shift issues Sounds like you will need a replacement soon.

 

I recently had the car serviced by a Honda Dealer. All the fluids were changed including the transmission fluid using ATF-Z1. The mechanic told me that there is nothing wrong with the transmission. He test drive my car and the transmission shifts smoothly. He did not hear any grinding noise that I described to him whenever the gear is shifted to drive. I went home and the next morning I heard the noise again.

I went back to the dealer to have it checked once again. It was a 15 minutes drive. When I arrived there the same thing happened. I cannot replicate the noise to the mechanic. The mechanic cannot diagnose because he is not hearing anything...Is it because the engine is still hot when I drove my car from my place to the dealership?

Is anyone experiencing the same thing in their auto transmission when the engine is still cold?

 

I don't know if this is exactly what you are experiencing, but I thought I'd add to your thread.

Intermittently, the car will emit godawful squealing sounds when moving to/from P/R/D (can't recall right off if this happens when moving into Neutral). I noticed that when this happens, the climate control fan doesn't blow either.

The only solution has been to turn the car off and restart. Then it's usually fine.

I have no idea what this means, but I thought I'd throw it out there.

 

I have a 2016 honda accord with the cvt transmission and after driving for about 20 mins or so when i put it into park i hear this sort of buzzing noise it also does it when i put it into reverse , it does not do it everytime just every so often it doesnt do it long just a few seconds or so ive had it back to the dealer n they heard thw noise but cannot figure out what it is or where its coming from has anyone else have this issue??

 

FFS MAN, START YOUR OWN THREAD, IN THE CORRECT SECTION, INSTEAD OF BUMPING AN 8 YEAR OLD THREAD, ABOUT A CAR THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR 2016 HONDA ACCORD CVT.

 

Stfu bro I wasn't even paying attention **** ****.

 

Congrats, you are an idiot.

 

same problem here. My civic is been doing it for a while. Only when its cold and only when you shift in to D or R. Did you find out what the problem is?
