PV6 uses SPIII ATF which is specifically for mitsubishi gearboxes, u
cannot use that in a City! better quickly go to a honda SC and have it
flushed out! use only honda CVTF. Better keep your fingers crossed, wrong
ATF will wreck your gearbox.

It`s the same for all other cars, even with PV6 if your pour in other ATF
like dextron which is not the same as SPIII ATF, you will damage your PV6
gearbox very fast.

It`s not just a honda city thing. all autoboxes are like that, u
must use the specified ATF. Anything else will wreck it.

the original complaint is about jerking.

in my experience, jerking can be caused by 2 aspects

1. insufficient fuel supply (dirty fuel filter, or injectors)

2. insufficient electrical supply to spark plug (faulty spark plugs or
spark plug cable).

Can get original Honda CVTF from Honda authorised parts distributors. If
get from SC, it raise price by at least RM20. There's one call Tiong Nam
in Sea Park, PJ, left side of Shell station.

Thanks for all your replies...

I have changed it back to the ori cvtf in a workshop n they charged me
rm125 inc labour. The mechanic told me they experienced many such cases n
once changed back to cvtf, the problem is solved.

Mine still jerk for first few round of testing but later seems to be
back to normal d..now, after few days of driving my wife didn't encounter
any prob..

But what i'm worried is that the damage might has been done
permanantly coz the normal atf has been in the gearbox for 5-6 weeks..
