Honda City 2005 Transmission problem

[sabur00kawnain]

I bought a used Honda city 2005 model few months back. After a few days of smooth running it started showing some problems. At first the D light started to blink continuously, then the gear stick got stuck at P and I had to put a key in the gear box to release it. Now yesterday when I started my car the R indicator was lit permanently with the D light blinking. As a result my rear camera is on so long my car is running. I'm a non-tech guy and have little or no knowledge regarding this issue. I'm really worried about it and desparately seeking a solution. What might be the reason causing this problem?

first of all, get it scanned with a scanner and look for any fault codes. Otherwise, gear oil change is the first guess.

What's the mileage of the car? I guess the previous owner didn't bother changing the ATF gear fluid which is supposed to be changed every 40k kms. Have the gear oil inspected and replaced, and if possible inquire about it from the previous owner

My vote is with Humayun and Nfil: Honda ATF. But before spending anything you need to consult an AT specialist to diagnose the fault in case it's anything beyond the ATF

As you describe above fault could be in electronic shifting system ( on positioning a gear lever at different positions P,D,R Electromagnetic valve opening / closing / changing ATF flowing path ) change ATF regularly as per manufacturer specifications & clean / inspect transmission filter, could be strainer type OR Magnet screen filter, magnet collecting a all metal pieces / debris flowing with ATF, so we can guess what's happening inside transmission.if transmission performance going down / low pulling etc after some 1-2 hours or less then hour then first change ATF if this will not work thats means transmission needs repair ( transmission oil pump not working properly,internal oil leakage from torque converter or gears Assembly / groups problem transmission disks etc.

I also have Honda city 2005 vario. Last night when I was driving to my house the suddenly stop moving forward or reverse, and D light is blinking continuously. Anyone here having the same problem and solved it....please guide me what to do, I have checked all the things. One more thing, few days ago my car was not starting and the gear lever got jammed at P, so u got the electrician and he changed all the fuses and relays in the fuse box.....is this issue related to the fuse box??

the D light blinking indicates that that u need to get it scanned for fault codes.get it checked from honda workshop or any other good workshop ,electrician wont be able to solve this issue.

[pwuser149992739670]

Someone told me that the transmission fluid has to be changed...will this help??

[SALMANWASEEM]

it could be anything a faulty grip or a major transmission problem so u need to get it scanned and if it is the oil then be very careful as this car has cvt transmission and you should only pour Honda CVTF.Get it scanned then take the next step.
what is your location ??

My car is giving P1886 error in the scanner... The mechanic told me to replace it's speed sensor...is this the speed sensor issue or something else??

[SALMANWASEEM]

yes and possible reasons can be:
1)Faulty CVT Driven Pulley Speed Sensor
2)CVT Driven Pulley Speed Sensor harness is open or shorted CVT Driven Pulley Speed Sensor circuit poor electrical connection

if harness is fine then replace the sensor and scan it again,i hope your problem will be resolved and is your check engine light or D blinking still on ?

[pwuser149992739670]

Yes D light is still blinking...and I have attached the sensor pics in which one is looking fine while the other one is in very bad condition...please have a look..
