BoostedWhipz's video: CVT Transmission Goes Out at 40K Miles on Modded Honda Accord 2018-2020

CVT transmission on my modded Honda Accord 2018-2020 goes out at 40K miles. Car is custom tuned by IMW and running full bolt-ons. List below: Last Dyno Results: ~220WHP/WTQ PERFORMANCE: - PRL Race Downpipe - PRL Frontpipe - PRL Intercooler - AEM Intake - Thermal R&D Frontpipe Exhaust - Rolloface Big Brake Kit - E-Tuned by Innovative Motor Works - Mishimoto Oil Catch Can - Hasport Engine Mounts This transmission is not meant to be driven hard and with loads of power. Many have taken the car to above 250HP/TQ without issues. However, it could just be a matter of time. Maintenance on my car was always done on or before time. CVT service was done at 35K miles. Oil changes done always at 50% levels. Car wasn't raced constantly either. Prior to this incident, the night before I raced, but didn't do anything over rated. Normal shifts in Sport mode. Got home without issues. Next day, while heading to work, I started having transmission slippage. Thought it was something else, so I reset the car. Went to a gas station and after driving out, my car got stuck on gear in the middle of the road. I had to power off and on the car, then over rev it into Drive. Car got into gear and was able to make it home safely. Car is on the way to Asian Motors. Entire job will be about $2K. Transmission will be a used one with 6K miles and comes with warranty. Others have paid over $4K for something like this. **I accept all responsibilities for this incident. Honda and/or any of their subsidiaries are not responsible for this.
