Waise bohat dukh hova. My car is 2018 . And such a big problem which Honda should repair for free as they claimed that it'd a manufacturing fault .

Although cvt having smooth drive experience and fuel economy but in my point of view it’s required time by time maintenance and what I believe because of engine power shift to torque depended on cvt belt which is variable . Most changes belts slipping during acceleration without noticing

This isn't true. Once the CVT belt slips, it's game over. The slipping will keep increasing after that, and you will start facing loss of power.

Even I don’t know if cvt manufacture included the error codes in obd2 regarding belt slipping case, I don’t think so it is embedded. In my opinion both side rotators engine and cvt drive should equipped with encoder sensors synchronised or mapped rpm ratio , this way system can easily recognise if inches of belt slips and should notify check light due to this error , definitely slipping belt is silent killer of power losses and increase in fuel consumption

Is there a way to diagnose that? For instance, if someone is buying a used car, can they figure out if this issue exists in that particular car or no?

Yes one way you can test that is bit tricky. You have to lift up both wheels out of ground , don’t forget safety matters must use proper jack stand. Put shift to D and accelerate until speedometer touched al least 80km/h keep steady and monitoring your engine rpm tachometer reading and note down , now have drive on road if you give full trust to meet 80 speed quickly and when reach check your rpm on this stage , if you found rpm greater than without load , it’s mean someone is bad cvt belt slipping , that’s my personality suggestion for test, if any tool available I don’t have idea .

Can you share your mechanics number? I have a 2017 model civic x and am also thinking of getting it replaced.

Also please share feedback if issue has returned or not after replacement
