Honda Jazz CVT Oil Cooler Leak JB | Coolant in Gearbox Fix

Languages: English | Bahasa Melayu | 中文 Honda Jazz CVT Oil Cooler Failure: Why Coolant Contamination Demands a Complete Fix The Honda Jazz is celebrated throughout Malaysia for its remarkable agility, fuel efficiency, and versatile interior. Yet, even the most dependable hatchbacks face specialized mechanical hurdles as the years roll by. Recently at Advance Auto Solutions Sdn Bhd (formerly Advance Auto Work) , we attended to a Honda Jazz GK experiencing severe transmission shuddering and hesitation. Pulling the dipstick revealed the classic warning sign: the transmission oil had turned into an opaque, milky pink fluid. This is what mechanics refer to as the "milkshake," caused when engine coolant breaches the transmission hydraulic circuit. The Root Cause: The Radiator's Built-in Oil Cooler In modern automatic and CVT platforms, transmission fluid circulates through a dedicated internal oil cooler built directly into the radiator's lower tank to manage opera...

Perodua Myvi Gearbox Overheating: Oil Cooler & Radiator Fix JB

English | Bahasa Melayu | 中文 English Edition The Perodua Myvi is the backbone of daily transportation for countless families navigating the busy roads of Johor Bahru, Tampoi, and Skudai. Known for its reliability, it can handle years of everyday driving. However, when an automatic transmission completely fails, many vehicle owners assume that simply dropping in a replacement unit will solve the problem forever. This is a costly misconception. At Advance Auto Solutions Sdn Bhd (formerly Advance Auto Work) , we believe that replacing a broken gearbox without finding out why it failed in the first place means you will likely be replacing it again very soon. Fix the root cause, not just the symptom. Recently, an older generation Perodua Myvi arrived at our Taman Mount Austin facility with a completely destroyed automatic transmission. The car had lost its ability to shift properly and was generating immense heat. We placed the car on ou...

6 Tips Penjagaan Gearbox CVT Supaya Tahan Lama: Elak Rosak Awal & Jimat Ribuan Ringgit!

Ramai pemilik kereta moden (Honda City, Toyota Vios, Perodua Myvi baru, Proton Iriz) menggunakan transmisi  CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) . CVT memang jimat minyak dan lancar, tetapi ia juga terkenal dengan sifatnya yang agak "manja" berbanding gear automatik konvensional (4AT). Jika salah jaga, kos pembaikannya boleh mencecah ribuan ringgit! Sebagai  Pakar Gearbox di Advance Auto Work  dengan pengalaman lebih 15 tahun, kami ingin berkongsi  6 Tips Emas  untuk memastikan CVT anda tahan lama. 1. Panaskan Enjin Sebelum Bergerak Jangan terus masuk gear dan jalan sebaik sahaja enjin dihidupkan, terutamanya pada waktu pagi. Kenapa?  Biarkan enjin hidup 1-2 minit. Ini memberi masa untuk minyak CVT beredar ke seluruh sistem dan mencapai suhu operasi yang sesuai. Minyak yang sejuk dan pekat tidak dapat melindungi komponen besi dengan optimum. 2. Pantang Larang: Jangan Tukar Gear Semasa Bergerak! Ini adalah kesilapan paling biasa. Jangan sesekali tukar da...

6 Essential Tips to Make Your CVT Gearbox Last Longer (Expert Advice from Advance Auto Work)

If you drive a modern car like a  Honda City, Toyota Vios, Perodua Myvi (new generation), or Proton Iriz , chances are you are driving with a  CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) . CVTs are excellent for fuel efficiency and smooth driving, but they are known to be more "sensitive" compared to traditional automatic gearboxes (4AT). If not cared for properly, repair costs can reach thousands of Ringgit! As  Gearbox Specialists at Advance Auto Work  with over 15 years of experience, we want to share  6 Golden Rules  to ensure your CVT lasts as long as possible. 1. Warm Up Your Engine Before Driving Don't just shift into gear and drive off immediately, especially in the morning. Why?  Let the engine run for 1-2 minutes. This allows the CVT fluid to circulate throughout the system and reach the correct operating temperature. Cold, thick fluid cannot protect the metal components optimally. 2. The Golden Rule: Complete Stop Before Shifting! This is the m...
