2006 Honda Civic Hybrid 57k miles

Hello, this is a concern with the eCVT transaxle that works with the IMA (Integrated Motor Assist) system for your hybrid. You absolutely need a technician trained and skilled with Honda Civic Hybrid's with proper test equipment and know how to evaluate your vehicle. I will say that it would not be the worst idea to interface with your local Honda dealership. If you are the original owner of the vehicle and service it regularly with a Honda dealership, you may be eligible to get some goodwill assistance from Honda if there is the need for a major repair. Have you had your transmission serviced recently -- fluid changed? This could be indication of the wrong fluid being used also; just a quick thought as this is not a very common concern to hear of.
