Possibly someone has poured in the wrong Transmission Fluid. If you do not use Honda ATF-Z1 it will cause shifting problems. Here is what your Honda Owner's manual says. "Always use Honda ATF-Z1 (Automatic Transmission Fluid). If it is not available, you may use a DEXRON III automatic transmission fluid as a temporary replacement. However, continued use can affect shift quality. Have the transmission flushed and refilled with Honda ATF-Z1 as soon as convenient." So make darn sure you have Honda ATF-ZI fluid in the tranny. If this is not the problem seek professional help.

Is a 110cc pocket bike automatic?

Not usually. If they say automatic, they probably mean semiautomatic. This means it is partly automatic, but not fully. This basically means it has and automatic clutch and the shifting pattern is usually neutral is down and 3 or 4 up. If it is automatic it might have a CVT auto transmission, which are fully automatic, but most of the pocket bikes do not seem to use them.

What are the symptoms of automatic transmission failure?

I have a 1999 Dodge Caravan SE, While I am driving things are alright, but when slowing down to a stop the transmission downshift late. What causes thisand is there anything I should be concerned about. Recently, I put some more transmission fluid in . could I have overfilled it?This should help:Complete automatic transmission failure is obvious because the car will not move at all when shifted into forward or reverse. Usually the symptoms of impending automatic transmission failure are not quite as dramatic, and can be inspected by a mechanic to determine if the transmission needs replacing or if there is any chance the problem can be repaired.Delayed ShiftingOne common symptom of automatic transmission problems is delayed shifting when the vehicle is cold, particularly for reverse or first gear. Loss of One GearSometimes one gear will go out entirely while the others still function. If fourth or reverse gear fails, for instance, the vehicle at least can be driven to a shop. Unusual Shifting SpeedsShifting may take place at unusual speeds, earlier or later than it should. The speed where shifting takes place also may keep changing. Noise and JerkingAny noise while shifting is a symptom of automatic transmission failure, and so is rough, jerky shifting. Odd MovementIf the vehicle tries to move while in park or neutral, it most likely has automatic transmission failure. Shift Lever IssuesIf the shift lever is difficult to move, this indicates transmission problems as well.

Can a vehicle be Automatic and Manual transmission?

Yes and no. Many cars will provide a manumatic type of transmission, in which the driver can designate whether they want to the car to drive fully automatic or in a sportier mode where they have control over gear shifting. The shifting is usually performed on the selector lever or on paddle shifters with no clutch. Even in this mode, the car will up-shift or down-shift for you if possible damage to the engine could occur. More expensive cars sometimes will come with transmissions in which they can choose between an automatic or manual transmission, and then further designate how aggressive they want the shifting to be.

What would cause the reverse to go out on a 97 Blazer?

If this is an automatic transmission, more than likely the transmission is on it's way to the junkyard. Usually failing transmissions lose reverse first, then the higher forward gears - last will be the lowest forward gears.


Why do most people who own exotic cars drive them like they are slow?

They have manual automatic transmissions that have "flappy pedal shifters" that usually take a little more time to get the shifting right when you're in the city & have 7 gears.
