Honda Problem
I need some help with my Zonda (this is a Euro forum I know.. I know...
). But im in tight situation and I was wondering if I may get some advice/ direction from those mechanically inclined. Any advice is much appreciated.
Ive posted on the Honda Forums and searched online. But I can't find a clear answer.
I drive a 2002 Honda CRV EX. AWD. Manual transmission. It has 257km, most km are high way and it runs fine.
However....
I went to get my tires changed from winters to summers and my mechanic showed my front struts were leaking oil. They were pretty much gone.
So I got him to change them both. He also noticed the left front transmission arm worn away and the grease was all gone (he showed me). Fair enough I had that replaced as well.
Now when I drive there is a slight pull to the right on acceleration. Its ever so slight but enough to make a very minor adjustment in the steering.
In second gear between 1500 Rpm and 2500 RPM on medium/hard acceleration there is a vibration on the left drivers side wheel. It does not happen in any other gear or rev range. Only second between 1500 - 2500 RPM when putting gas down.
Mechanic said to get an alignment. I did that, but the problem remains. The mechanic took it for a test drive and does not know what it is. He said he is happy to change the left CRV joint as part of the warrenty. But he does not think its the CRV joint. But he does not know what else it could be.
He said he can start by taking off the central transmission and make it 2WD and go from there and see if the problem remains. Then its a case of tracing the problem, i.e is it the torque converter, or front transmission, etc. If I go down that route its going to cost me. Its likely I may be losing my job in a couple of months so cash is tight.
. I don't mind spending cash to fix it, I just can't keeping spending to keep figuring out what it is.
Ive searched the Honda forums and im not sure what it could be. It could be CV joint, Torque converter, or central tranny joint. I have no idea.
2002 front end vibration
98 CRV front end
problems
Vibration on acceleration
Possible Torque Converter Problems
Ive also searched front Axel and similar problems come up. But mixed results to what the solution could be.
Has anyone experienced this on any of their AWD vehicles?
