Question 2003 Civic LX 1.7L Coupe

HEY HEY! I'm brand new to the forum first off! Thanx for allowing me to be a part of the Civic community!

Now down to buisnazz!

first my car only has...81,010k miles!

My problem is...when i take off from stop to 1st gear my car does a little shake and then it takes off and sometimes shakes and "long shifts" into the other gears make it rev up to around 3-4k...odd aye?

next...i just replaced plugs...no change was made, getting awful gas miliage...i check air filter as well, its good, nothing is wrong with it at all...any ideas?

last...now when my car is in nurturer and idling i can hit the gas to rev it and from 0-2k is an awful shudder...

any help is greatly appreciated!

thanx again for allowing me into this community and i look forward to many years to go!

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Welcome to the forum.


Your complaint makes me think this isn't something easily solved over the internet, it may take someone driving it to feel what you talk about first hand. ...
...unless it's got codes that lead to an obvious issue.

Is your check engine light on? (does it work at all, nobody cut it out to disable it?) Flashing while you drive?
Got fault codes?

No codes as of now. I scanned it to check freeze frame data and none there either. It's driving me nuts lol.

Also thank you to the other member for the welcome and the kind words of my enthusiasm!
