Please help: 2012 GE6 CVT fit juddering
Hey guys,
I purchased a 2012 CVT Honda Fit (Japanese import) with 88,000km on the clock last week. On my way home from the dealership the car juddered a few times on the motorway. The next day it started juddering more and started dropping speed and got reduced by breakdown assistance. Car was brought back to be dealership, the guy told me (before it arrived back to him) that it was the plugs, which he says he has now changed (and that they were "very bad"). I also insisted he change the transmission fluid, which he didn't want to do, but he did eventually do it. I am picking it up tomorrow but I'm terrified to drive it now. I'm also paranoid that he didn't use the right "gearbox fluid" as he called it. Any thoughts about the situation or any ideas what could have caused the juddering? It might be fixed now but Ive just completely lost trust in the guy and the car. I know absolutely nothing about cars but did my research and chose a dealership with good reviews, and chose a car I thought would be reliable
