ok well my car has got this problem with the car autotically downshifting from 2nd to 1st, and theres slight jerk wen it does it, i also have a late shifting problem while its trying to find a gear a stays in a gear to long revs up to 3 or 4 then shoots backdown, cant it be my rotors? or the brakes is sticking? i feels like a slight grinding or stumbling when i brake, 1994 accord lx auto

 

well, you may indeed need brake work, but i'd think it's unrelated to the transmission concern.

do you feel comfortable adjusting the A/T throttle cable?

 

nope im not really a mechanic guy ,but i know some,but ill love to learn. i got a quote on rebuilding my trans for 950? is that a good price

 

rebuild?? $950??? you get what you pay for...

 

yeah, is that a normal price? or wat?

 

Mine does the downshift thing from 2nd to 1st also. when i leave from work i have to go thru a crossing gate and i slow to stop and when im at about 5mph it downshifts and kinda jerks me some.

and im not positive but i swear it stuck in second when i was waiting for the garage door to open and i went to pull in i felt like the tranny was in second. i put it in reverse then back in drive and its fine.

who knows

 

Sounds like its on its way out. $950 is low, like cheap, half-*** it low.

 

Rebuild for $950? Sounds too low to me. Ensure you get a warranty.

 

I fiddled around with mine (95LX, 123K) and it removed a bit of harsh-shifting, it also changed the shift points... now I move to higher gears quicker and the ATC-lock takes time. The gas-pedal response is quicker too... Are these connected? Can you please explain how the A/T Throttle cable adjustment works? Thanks!

Is that 950 for a rebuild or 950 for a used? I'd expect a rebuild to be around 2k.
