Are there any TSB's for the 07 SI?

gtrice31 · 07-24-2007, 10:34 PM

Ive read and it seems that all the tsbs are for 06's

However it seems that 07 4 DOOR mine in particular has some similar issues.

Is it because it has not been long enough for enough 07 complaints or what?

Dealer told me never heard of any probs... I know is bs.
Notchiness in the gears is normal??lol.
I had k20a R and that trans was the best np no notchiness smooth everytime.
this thing clicks twice before fully engaged in third gear.
If im cruising and hold clutch in and move shifter from 4th to third sev times...
it feels like it gets harder and harder to put into third...

Need thread specific to 07SI's only...

Notchiness in 3rd gear was never recalled... from what I understand it's just a poor design or manufacturing, not much we can do about it except put AMSOIL MTF in (which does help). You can try taking to the dealer and try to replicate the problem but I gave up after 2 tries @ 2 diff dealers and just changed the MTF myself.

It's 80% better now, good enough for me. I know what u're talking about though, it frustrated me for a while but meh, nothing's perfect

woah DFW? thats the first ive heard of a third gear issue in warm area.

lol, I dont think the weather matters so much, but then I dont know since I bought my car in the spring, and it hasn't been cold here since then.

I'm not that grinding that bad though, it just wasn't smooth, now it's a lot smoother but it's still not like the other shifts

I get the occasional 3rd gear problem its rare though. Usually when the tranny is cold and i drive a little too spirited. But its rare.

Its probably something that the dealers just deal with.
Like updated codes or requirement for equipments.

02civicsi · 07-26-2007, 12:26 PM

You're probably right.

gtrice31 · 07-26-2007, 01:12 PM

Put this one in the books.

Per POHANKA of Fredericksburg VA service MGR.

"notchiness and rev hang are normal for this car"

No fixes.

At present, 21 TSBs have been issued for the 2007 Civic. None of these relate to the problem mentioned.

do you have the pdf so i can print this or know where i can get it?

Tommygun43 · 07-27-2007, 12:32 PM

pulling to the right

sdiori · 08-01-2007, 11:58 PM

I had the same "3rd gear" issue with my FA5...Honda on Grand near Chicago looked it up, found a tsb and switched the transmission fluid. Apparently, the fluid from the factory was bad and Honda released a revised version....3rd gear issues gone. Don't believe the crap dealers will tell you.....I had this done at least a month ago!

jackb911 · 08-02-2007, 12:09 AM

My '07 Si has rev hang, an impossibly notchy 3rd gear, and the A/C is awful in stop and go traffic. From what I've read on this fourm, these issues are fairly common and Honda seems to not be interested in rectifying them.

My '90 and '94 Hondas had zero problems...what the heck has happened to Honda's quality control?
