Salam everybody.
Today I observed a slight burning smell for a few seconds after I towed my friends baleno up a not so steep road for around 100 meters. May be 10 or 15 degree incline. My vehicle is civic 2014 prosmatec and I towed in D1.
Have I done any damage to transmission or any other thing?
only 100 m ? if the car is well mantained ( gear oil changed on time - coolant topped - fan working etc) nothing happened
Yup. Only a hundred meters Car is well maintained and that's a relief to read
with your auto civic you pulled a vehicle in D ? thats the over load smell from transmission fluid over heat. its normal. if you are close to 50,000 km or more change the transmission fluid.
auto trans vehicle shall tow a vehicle in D2 or D+ mode
Thanks sir.I did it in D1.car is 90 k driven. and atf was replaced by Honda center at 60. Next is due at 100k. Shall I get it replaced early or wait for 100k milage to clockup ?
you can change later
Thanks sir for the advice.
