This oil seal he was referring to, would most probably be a shaft seal one resides at engine side of the gearbox. You can do an oil change with the repair so that if the pulling power issue is due to viscocity drop of gear box oil, it'll be sorted out.

jaga Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Honda CVT gear box issues are critical. You have to look after like a baby also make sure the oil change is done in evry 20000 km with HONDA CVT gear box oil. Oil is available at the agent and Tech motors. Still you have problems with pulling or gear changing you may go to the Agent or Upul at Malabe.Upul's contact no is 0777735251. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
