My Honda city 2008 Vtec (mileage now is 95000km) also encounter same problem (occurred when mileage about 85000km). Jerking issue happen sometime (once or twice a day) after stop a traffic light. Normally morning or after back from work. At the stop, I put in D mode and pressing brake pedal. After few second jerking happened, and rpm drop from normal about 900rpm to about 400/500rpm continuously for about 5 to 6 times. Every time rpm drop then car will also jerk. I have post a video in YouTube (remark malaysia).
I follow and done all the service at Honda service centre until today.
Have done the following but fail:
-change spark plugs at 90000km
-clean air intake manifold and throttle body (at Honda LeeMotor Sungai Petani)
-reset ECU and calibrate CVT (also change to a new battery)
-Adjust gear position
-flushing gearbox
I have dropped my car to Honda Lee Motor Sungai Petani for 10days but they failed to detect the root cause. They clean throttle body and then tell me problem is solved. But after I insisted them to test to detect the jerking, the problem occurred thus cleaning throttle body is not the solution so they didn't charge me. Then they said adjust lifting but failed, and finally they clean air intake manifold. But still failed. All of this has taken at least 10 days. The service manager said he want to check with Honda technical side but keep saying no reply from them, after tiring of follow up (waiting empty feedback for more than 1.5 months), I complaint to Honda Malaysia. So HM said want to investigate and get report from them. At the end, the service centre call me go back to drop my car. They said this time want to dismantle gearbox, and claiming if got problem and has to change new gearbox would cost me RM20k+ for a new. This is bullshit and sound threatening. Even if get a recond gearbox would cost me few thousand but would end up the same I think. So I refuse to go.
I dropped my car to Honda Magna Speed last two days, so let them test and see how.
