Well... nobody's replaced one yet, so we're not sure... but if you drive hard enough, you might be able to find out...

Just regular fluid changes like in a conventional geared A/T or M/T.

Make sure you use the correct fluid (check your owner's manual).

It's when you blow one up that makes things expensive. So take good care of it.

cvt is belt driven right? so pano maintenance ng belt? do you have to change it every so-so number of kms? iniicp ko lang kc, ung belts kc high wear n tear yun e. pano ba?

Yeah, but the belt is made from steel. I don't think it ever needs replacing.

EDIT: Depending on the model, it may also have a high density rubber belt. These need replacement when they start to slip.

A couple of weeks ago, Honda Alabang called me up to "upgrade the CVT fluid free of charge" for our Jazz which we bought Oct., 2004. According to them, it's their branch's project and will take only 2 hours.

Has anyone been called-in by their casa for this CVT fluid upgrade?

I surmised they called me because I have not been bringing the car for their PMS. Else it would have been a part of their regular PMS. The last time I brought the car to Honda Alabang for the 10T Km PMS was approx 6 months ago. The car has only 11.7T Km logged as of this time.....

I had problems with my battery a year ago and had it replaced sa casa. They told me that they need to change the ATF of my CVT and it will be done for free.

I bought my Jazz 1.3 CVT in March 2005 and i'm driving it really hard. So far so good naman sya.

according to motul even the old non-earth dreams cvt will accept the multi-cvt fluid they have. as well as the current gen city and civic. i'm guessing the viscosity is almost the same. I think the xteer cvt should be ok.

I can't quite see the specs but i think this is the same 4L you're eyeing.
