I lease a 2004 Civic EX. Ever since the car was new there is this strange problem that only happens when the car sits overnight in the EXTREME cold weather, (a few days per year). Car starts fine. Shift into Drive and the car just sits there, i.e. does not propel forward. If you press on the gas the engine revs up as if its in neutral. I have had the car back to the dealer on several occasions and they finally experienced the same problem one cold morning. They flashed the computer with an updated software and then contacted the honda engineers who advised them to replace the solenoids on the transmission, (whatever they are). The problem still remains. The dealer states that this is a very unusual problem. I have found an interesting "work-around" fix, in that if the car does not initially engage into Drive I shift into reverse and back up a few feet and then into drive and away I go. I guess the reason that I'm looking for information with this problem is that I'm thinking about purchasing this car at the end of the lease, (6 months), as it really has been a fine vehicle with the only exception being this very rare cold starting phenomenon. The car has about 38,000 miles and has driven very well to date. My wife feels that we shouldn't buy this vehicle as we do not need to repair/replace a transmission and this cold weather problem could be a sign of future transmission grief. Any suggestions, similar complaints, or comments would be welcomed.
