[QUOTE="HoLeChit, post: 3517345, member: 35036"] I'll echo the sentiment of it sounding like low trans oil pressure. Do you know when the tranny oil was changed last? Also, just a word of advice. If you go to replace said car, stay away from the newer honda's with CVT transmissions. They're garbage. I had a 2015 Accord, my mom currently has a 2014 CRV. The CVT transmissions don't allow the engines to really work through the RPM band, and the engines are built to such tight tolerances that once the oil gets dirty, they start burning oil as it gets past the rings. My 2015 Accord would burn 2 quarts of oil every 3k miles, and my moms CRV does similar. One time I put off changing the oil, as I was going to trade it in. Wanted to change the oil the week I went to trade it in, about 1500 miles past my typical 3-4k mile oil change. started the car up to go get the filter/oil, ended up being 4 quarts low on that 5 quart system. From what I have heard it isn't a case with non-CVT cars. [/QUOTE]
