I would think the reason that this has not hit the headlines or been on watchdog or the fact that no one has be injured is that the majority of owners are more than happy with their car the system is good the only
tiny (and I mean tiny) issue is the sensation you get when the car is changing gear fells strange ( though it is perfectly normal it is the system dipping the clutch and changing gear)

I am aware that there are a few unhappy i-shift owners on here and I am sure a few more are out there aswell but the symptoms described by roscobbc seem quite odd and can only lead me to one of two conclusions

1. There is a major fault with the i-shift software or the clutch
2. You need to change your driving style slightly

Having the full auto box in the CR-V and the semi auto in the gives me the best of both worlds so we have the smooth as silk cruiser CR-V
and the Sporty lets get on with it Civic

I would love to have a drive of your car Roscobbc and some of the other
guys cars and vice versa to see what the difference is

you should speak to your dealer and see if he has a NEW i-shift car
go for a drive in it with the foreman and then drive yours with the foreman

because it is a good system it works
