Hey tuners...i bought a ek3 civic with a d15b and cvt tranny with the sport and econ mode on the steering. Car running real nice but one thing i noticed is that when i put the car in drive or reverse it takes a couple seconds for u to feel the gear engaged. Then when i mash the gas it feels as there is a flat spot because the car revs a little then it jerks when it actually pulls off. Kinda feels like if i was to put the car in neutral and send up the rpm then select drive.. the car ould jerk the same way... can someone offer a little advice please??

Had a similar issue where reverse gear took a 2-3 seconds to engage when i bought my ek3 last year, all the mech did was change the transmission fluid and it works perfectly now.

Dunno if he changed the filter though, have to ask.
