Hello folks, pls I have a Honda city 2007 but lately I experience jerking while the car is in drive or reverse but when it's on neutral or park everything seems perfect but then when I begin to drive it jerks as if there is a misfire. I have replaced two coils and the remaining two seems ok. Pls does anyone possibly know what could be wrong? More so, no check engine light showing.

Sell it

I had a similar challenge with my Honda city last year.... It was crazy..... But as crazy as it was, it was solved with just #500.

In my case, it was the coil, I only repackaged it with silicone gum.

So, are you sure those coils are good?

They may seem good but could be the problem.... There's a way we test coil, I don't knowhat if you know how to. Check for electric spark(i hope you understand this)...if there's any tiny spark noise, there you have the cause.

Check your fuel pump too...
Check your fuel injectors too(the call it nozzle) if they supply well.


It took me about two months to resolve mine that year... After I had changed fuel pump(complete), washed fuel tank, changed complete fuel injectors/ nozzles, even I changed airflow sensor....
Only to discover that two coils were the culprit. They were sparking slightly

Thanks for your post. I really appreciate. Fuel pump replaced, nozzles serviced & they are firing well, fuel filter replaced, fuel tank very neat, plugs replaced and yet the problem persist. I guess we have to look at the coils again. I just hope is not transmission related.

07 Honda City Replace your transmission oil with Honda CVT fluid. You should be fine. That transmission is notorious for that particular vibration. If you refuse to when it starts jerking, well, a new transmission may be loading.

Thanks for your advise. Please where can I get the CVT fluid?

Just a quick question. Does the vibrations when you start driving clear out after few seconds? Is it more noticeable when climbing a hill?

Vibration on reverse can also be caused by bad engine seats. You may need to have a tech test drive and ascertain for sure.

The vehicle is jerks while on drive or reverse. It is stable while in park or neutral. The jerking is noticeable when the vehicle temperature has risen like after 20 minutes of steady driving. It does not vibrate but jerks as if there is a misfire but when you stop the vehicle and fire it there is no sign of engine misfire.

My city was manual transmission....

Check the the coils whilst checking Oga oluwaseun's suggestion.....
I still believe it's the coils.... That thing show me pepper that year.

Coils don't jerk only when driving... They must at least cause a misfire at idle.... I'd go with oluwaseunla's prognosis... Mounts, tranny. Op all the best. But why not scan the vehicle?

Smiles, have you used city before? Mine had no rough idle, fires very well on neutral.... Scanned and scanned no fault code....highly placed mechanics and rewire checked it.... Boss all of them were mentioning mounts, fuel pump, nozzles and all....
My junior brother and I were the one who got the culprits..and we took it to the most unlikely place to be fixed...


Other referenced mechanic checked the coils too, but none saw it..

Thanks bro. Actually am suspecting these coils. It happened to me weeks ago so I changed two coils and it stopped suddenly it began again. Am with a mechanic now. I will update u guys on our findings

True that. Happened to me as well. Got coils from Gazzuzz, swapped and the jerking disappeared meanwhile every mechanic I engaged said my coils were okay.

Hello Folks, I really appreciate everyone's suggestion. I glad to announce to you all that my vehicle is running perfect ones again. Indeed the coil was the culprit here. One of them was damaged at the neck which could only be seen if you uninstalled & removed the straight tube attached to it to have a visual inspection. Got a new coil & then use silicon gum of the necks & all was fine.

Lesson to learn.

1. Coils might be damaged even if they sensitive to disconnecting the coil wiring harness/wiring sockets.

2. Coils could actually leak from the plastics tubes.

3. Vehicle might not misfire while on idle, neutral or park and yet still have a bad coil.

4. Vehicle jerking is synonymous to plug misfire, coil misfire, fuel pump and injectors but to diagnose the fault it's better to start from the basics like inspection of plugs and coils before progressing to more complex parts.
