hey guys
My accord for about a year and a half has been having major tranny problems. First off every morning i have to warm up my car, if its not warmed up my car skips. Traction control light goes on, and the D4 flashes, when this happenes the car skips, i have to pull over kill the engine and restart the car, and usually it goes away. I have flushed the tranny and still i have the problem. I have dynod the car, and a error comes, theres a problem with the fourth gear. Seems like i need a new tranny, has any one changed there tranny?How much am i looking at? also i was thinking about converting to stick shift (might as well i'm getting a new tranny) How much will that dent my pocket? any one have experiance in that feild?

P.S. when i put in supreme gas, the problem doesnt happen as much with reg. gas

 

tranny failure is a known issue on that vehicle. How many miles are on it?

 

Anyone have any other suggestions for his problem? In particular the Manual switch?
I'm also interested in converting my '03 auto to a manual.

 

I got about 90,000 miles, and yes i heard from many people, that year has problems. I need to find some one that can anser my questions about the converting.

 

There is an extended transmission warranty. 7 years or 100,000 miles.
Take it to the dealer. They will rebuild/replace it for free if you are within the warranty period.

 

Hey Klrspz how do you eibach springs ride? are they smooth, or bouncing every where?

 

Converting it to manual will cost you upwards of $5k. Do a search. It has been covered. I linked it somewhere. You swap a 6 speed trans from an Acura CL or TL.

 

My warranty has expired i went to the dealer those basterds didnt want to do anything. Kept giving me the run around.

your car is/was part of a class action lawsuit that was won. You should still be covered under that, I believe the warranty on the transmission is 109,000 miles. If they still feel like messing with you call honda of america let them know what's going on.

 

Report them to Honda of America immediately. Take your car to another dealer. The warranty should be honored.
