Getting slowly worse.
The CVT unit has the following contents
Torque converter
Variator
Belt
Oil pump
Oil
Heat exchanger to coolant system
forward and reverse clutch packs
Differential
The gearbox makes a noise like water through a partially open tap or a lower slower pitch to a slipping fan belt when cold and only when slowing from about 20MPH. Oil changed at 25, 50 and 75K with Honda oil from the local dealership, no juddering at takeoff with nose .
So could this noise the forward clutch pack or a faulty control valve in the valve body, the issue is taking longer to clear, do Honda adjust the clutch packs at service and if they do can this be done by the home mechanic, my car has not seen a dealer service since 13K as I cant afford there bills.
