Guys my GK5 it feels too notchy for my taste. It's actually one of the worse tranny shift feel I have had on a new car. Is Royal purple or redline oil any good for smoothing out the gearbox? Also where is the fill and drain plug on this car? And lastly how many liters does it take?

 

RedLine can be notchy in the cold but if you live in a warmer climate then you should be okay. It is very high quality stuff though.

 

Honda put clutch delay valve in their new cars,,ge8 owners uses old civic 2000 traditional clutch master cylinder to avoid dealing with clutch delay valve

 

I see. So what can we do to rectify this?

 

Pare!

Is this the naughty part that's causing rough shift when cold and sometimes it feels like slipping when driven hard.Crunchy second gear? I am trying to locate this naughty boy. Where is it?

 

It's in the master cylinder and no that wouldn't cause those issues generally.

How many miles are on the car?

 

Brand spanking new. Just purchased this car about 2 months ago.Did i get a dud? I know here in Australia. They don't want to sell manuals anymore. This one had to be shipped from another state.

 

Then why are messing with it? Take it in under warranty and have them look at it.

 

OK. I am taking it to the shop on Wednesday.

 

Really pissed at this dealer ship. I took it in and it's raining. I picked the car up and they couldnt find it on the lot. So he went around looking for it and finally found it. Like I said. Something wasn't right about the gear box.

They changed tranny oil because the oil was slightly burnt. But i think they didn't put enough in the first place? When I picked this car up from day one it had problems the left door not shutting properly.

I took it to them. They said nothing wrong with it.They put lube on the hinges etc. I took it back to them because it wasn't right. They finally did fix the door and it was out of alignment. FIXED.

I wrote a bad review online about them. I work on cars I know something is not right with the gearbox.They have a bunch of apprentices working there.Some are as young as 17.
