Consumer Description

MY 2006 HONDA CIVIC SI HAS AN ISSUE WITH "HANGING REVS" THAT EVEN AFTER THE RELEASE OF THE GAS PEDAL THE RPMS SEEMS TO STAY STEADY FOR 1-2 SECONDS. THE INABILITY OF THE DBW SYSTEM WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO EARLY CLUTCH FAILURE, ALSO THERE IS SURGING AND JERKING IN 1ST-2ND GEAR. I MUST SAY THAT IT MAKES ME VERY NERVOUS TO DRIVE BECAUSE I CAN'T PREDICT WHAT THE CAR WILL DO. THE CAR ALSO SEEMS TO HAVE A NOTCHY, STIFF, AND GRINDING 3RD GEAR THAT WON'T SEEM TO GO AWAY EVEN WITH RECOMMENDED FLUID. *TR
