Well I have only put 10,000 on it since I got it, I have no clue if the previous owner changed it. Currently When I put it into drive or reverse it takes a second or two to get into gear, I usually hold the brake a little longer and wait til I feel the gear engage, If I dont wait and press the gas it usually jumps into gear. No prob with shifts though.
Awesome, lol. Thought my transmission was bad. Although every once in awhile when I poke the gas at around 30-35mph and speed up to 45-50mph and let off the gas the car will stay in the gear it is currently in and my rpms will go to 3500-4000rpm. I usually press the brake a little harder and it will downshift but if I let off the gas and it stays at 4000+ rpm I can poke the gas and the car will take off like I was racing in a manual. Sounds weird I know. Never experienced this in an automatic before. Anyone else come across this?
I don't run my MC that hard, knowing that the CVT can go at any time and that fixing them is costly. I've tracked my car and it has gone to the Dragon several times, but normally I just drive it at highway speeds or less. Mine has around 55k, and I plan to keep it worry free for a long time.
As suggested, though, I'd get the tranny fluid changed...a small cost preventative when you look at how much you would spend for a new tranny.
