i don't know if there is a reflash or not for the non-si models, but if there is check and see if your vin number falls within the category. What your suffering from is the Drive-by-wire issue. We are all having to deal with it.

 

I have 06 DX Coupe 5 speed.

Sometimes when im in 2nd 3rd 4th or 5th,

when i accelerate and let off the gas it jerks, and when i press the gas back on again it jerks. dont matter how much gas i press. is this because i need a reflash?

And sometimes when i shift through gears i drive like a newbie. ive been driving stick for a long time.

I got the same problem, but it only happens in first gear when the engine is still warming up.

 

i have the same thing on my lx sedan mt, its mostly in 1st and 2nd. I can feel it in every gear but everyone else mostly notices 1st and 2nd.

 

so does anyone know if there is a reflash for non si models? What's the vin number I need to fall within?

 

How bad is the jerk though? I mean, the lower gear you are in, the harder it is going to jerk. That's how most manual cars are. Try driving in first till about 7-10km/h and let go, it'll jerk like crazy.. and it should lessen the higher the gear you go.

I've noticed this with all standard cars.

No reflash is going to fix that.

 

yea i notice i have that kinda problem too. it lik when i drive for a long time or more then 60miles. then i notice when i was comming home it start jerking in 1st to 2nd. n it in the begining it was smooth till after i drive for a while the it happen. what u guys think we should do?

 

Must be the DBW.

 

yuppers...

hammer it and it jerks fo sho'

Damn DBW lag

 

im kinda newb at this what is DBW lag n should i bring it to the dealer?

 

its just the way manual cars are, if u push and let off the gas its going to jerk, especially more at lower gears, just dont let off the gas too fast

 

Flat spot...

I too have that problem, happens when I shift into second mostly (around 2200rpm) sometimes third. I describe it as a flat spot, my car dosent jerk like mis-timed clutching but just pauses the power until it gets over the hump, usually around 2600rpm. I have a visit soon with my dearler and wasnt sure if it was a problem on mine or more of a model issue. I'll be sure to let them know there is a problem and demand a proper explaination.

 

I got the same problem, but it only happens in first gear when the engine is still warming up.

same thing wen engines cold its like riding a bull in first

 

mine jerks, almost stalls out, almost feels like it's starving for air kinda thing

06 SI when shifting 2~3 and 3~4

never got an answer as to why.. and i got the Honda Reflash so thats not it

 

Car jerking - I do it all the time, but cleanup is a major concern. Sometimes I get it on my pants and shirt. Other times I'm hitting the upper-tier dash and sunroof. Depends on when the last car jerk was I guess. :laughing:

both honda sticks I've driven "jerk" when you let off the gas abruptly in as high as 3rd gear but it's most prominent in 1st and 2nd. I don't think reflashes applied to DX models (but check on that cuz I'm not 100%). I'm thinking the reflash will help this problem in my Si but it wont eliminate it. The reflash is to address the rev's hanging up there for 2 seconds after you take your foot off the throttle - a result of bad DBW design. But even my S2000 jerked a little if you were in 1st or 2nd gear and you just pulled your foot up. the throttle is closing - an expected behavior to me.

 

That's the nature of the transmission in the Civic, not related to DBW.
