RPM drop
Hi All,
I own a Honda Fit 2003, it has done 160,000 kms.
The problem is whenever i shift from N to D , there's a RPM drop and weird vibration in my car ( rpms drops from 800 to 600 or less). I've changed my CVTF lyk before 20,000 kms. The car also vibrates when the brake pedal is pressed on D mode.
Waiting for ya helpful replies.
Thnx

Has it always done this?
I'm not sure if the CVT uses a fluid torque-converter like a traditional automatic, but there's always a bit more resistance in D than N. There's enough slippage to let the engine turn without stalling, but still a load placed on it. It's like sitting at a stop with the clutch let out juuuuust a little bit.
If it's something that's changed over time, it may be a concern. Perhaps have a mechanic give it a lookover?

It started lyk 2 weeks ago. The brake pads have about 70% life.
The vibration is ( For instance, when is start the car after 2 or 3 hours and leave it to warm for 4-5 mins, shifting to D from P makes it vibrate and i can see a RPM drop) I've to press hard on the gas pedal. Similarly, on singnal when i push the brake pedal while the car is engaged in D , I can feel the vibration .
