When to the workshop 4 time, but they keep saying nothing wrong as they have already done reprograming. Quite frustrated with them.

Anyone experiencing similar problem or know what is the problem or how/where to fix it ?

Thank you.

I had checked on CNG website and they commit that their airwave had problem with iding with CNG whereby most other honda don't. I suspect that airwave tunning is not so perfect even at fuel.
So how your car now, getting better?

Change ur gearbox will help

Recently, my 2.5 years Honda Stream encounter the same problem. It just went for it's 40K mileage major service 2 weeks ago and last Saturday, I was advised to change it's spark plugs ($130+) but problem persist. I may be trying out a ATF fluid flush this coming Saturday as recommended by another friend. However, heart ache as my ATF was changed less than 2 weeks ago during it's 40K major service. This is my first Honda, please advise if anyone knows of any solution.

Problems as below:

1) slight vibration (about 1 sec) of the car just before it come to a complete stop. However, this vibration occurs only when I brake slowlly/ gradually. If i brake hard, problem is unfelt.

2) same vibration (about 1 sec) can also be felt when moving off during cruising speed. ie. from 1st gear to 2nd gear. As my Stream is automatic gear, I suspect and narrow the problem to switching from 1st to 2nd gear.

3) problem is felt during 20-25km/h speed (thus suspecting 1st to 2nd gear switch) during pickup and when RPM is about 2K or less.

4) problem disappear if i pickup fast from stationary. eg. if RPM is 2.5K and above.

5) problem is felt again before coming to a gradual complete stop (not during slowing down but just before complete stop)

One reason given by a friend was that my AFT fulid was drain away and the new one was refill without "flushing" thus dirt and particals trap will remain in gear ??

Please help. Thanks

Still could not isolate the problem..

so this problem for only morning or first 30 min?

it happen the first 15 minutes.. especially early morning...
anyway, i think its air con compressor... air con kicks in.. vibrate a bit... noticeable during morning cold start or 1st 15 min... after 30 minutes drive or hot afternoon....i will felt abit of air-con kicks in... very mild...

strange though... the vibration shall be constant upon kicks in.. rather than cold start...

drove ceebee and ody.. also got this air-con kicks in vibration.... similar to mine... nabei... honda pity us...give us a osim chair while stuck in the jam...

Seem like this is a know problem that a lot of people face. i had the same issue too. move off time.

another possibility is the rpm too low...or tb dirty.. get it cleaned or adjust the rpm higher will help

could be the gear valve issue - manufacturing fault. only certain batch will affect. unless honda do a recall else tat part cost a gd 1K to replace

problem still there....I give up..
now another problem surface. rattling sound in the morning when first engage gear "D". Workshop say sound comes from air-con...sian....
