Problem overview

Some Honda Civic owners report experiencing shaking and groaning, which may be attributed to issues with the oil pressure switch and low transmission fluid levels. A malfunctioning oil pressure switch can lead to engine problems that cause vibrations and shaking in the vehicle, making it crucial for owners to ensure its proper functioning for optimal engine performance. Additionally, low transmission fluid can result in rough shifting and slippage, potentially leading to transmission failure, which also manifests as shaking and groaning. Regular checks and maintenance of the transmission fluid are essential for smooth operation. Promptly addressing these concerns through proper maintenance and repairs can help alleviate these symptoms, ensuring a safer driving experience.
