it's been a while but he gets them straight from Honda. when I was having problems with my 98 after the rebuild, he offered one to me for $1500. I wanted to save that PM but H-T only keeps messages for a certain amt of time

perhaps they would jump on and offer a deal for all the accord owners that are having problems?? We could use a good tranny sponsor/vendor....

problem with most non honda rebuilt transmission is

1. most people really have no clue how to rebuild them
2. the warranty is too short 12mo/12K...kinda useless considering when the problems start to show up in the unit


I talked to a guy that retired a few years ago and he told me that there are too many different variations of this accord trans and they are very hard to get right.......

Up until this year honda was even having troubles with the rebuilds.....

Yeu.. my man a couple of things you should know

# 1 .. the only trannies that Honda rebuilds are the ones under warranty ,, and the warranty they give after that is 1 yr or 12k miles .. that's all..
# 2 ..if a tranny is customer pay, Honda dealerships will get their trannies from an outside source..,,on the west coast from a company in CA.. Honda does not supply them trannies if it is customer pay..,, normal warranty is 1 yr or 12k miles ,, unless you pay more money to extend the warranty longer ,, you can get 3yrs /36k , 5 yrs /50k.. the longer the waranty the more the tranny will cost ..

when I talked to my dealer they said 4500 anad it was 3/36K warranty....... maybe something has changed? (this was jan 06) and that they would be putting in a honda reman unit.....it was too steep for me that is why i went with Kennedy and they have a excellent BBB record (few issues, all resolved)

When I had the alt done on the car they said that was 3/36K as well... I guess they cover some parts differently?
