    hi,
    i have a honda civic 1998. It has a multimatic gear box. Around 4
    months back, without knowing this gear box is a CVT, i changed gear
    oil with normal ATF. Still the vehicle is running OK, but it gives a
    small vibration when i try to accelerate. I need to know following.
    1) does this type of gear boxes seriously require a CVT specific gear
    oil. Will using normal ATF ruin it?
    2) What is this vibration. (it was there even before i changed gear
    oil i think). Is it easy to repair?

    thanks
