AT wont shift without releasing gas pedal
not sure whats going on, trans fluid seems to be at a normal level and no lights or anything on the dash, but the car wont shift normally,
it will build up to 2.5k or 3k rpm and stay there until i let off the gas,, does that in a couple different gears and sometimes feels like it downshifts once i release the gas at times
??
recent seafoam of vaccuum line, gas and oil crankcase, new plugs but thats it

Could we have more detail about your car please ? The problem happen before or after recent work done to the car ? What if you drive it normal and don't let your foot of the gas pedal, would it shift or slip ?

my transmission wont go into the lock out gear when merging onto the highway, have to let off my gas for it to drop down. little over 3k at 70mph until i let off gas and then it drops down to 2700k.
also when doing city speeds it will upshift early and the car bogs and shutters, feels like your trying to take off in 3rd gear in a Manual Transmission. its that kind of bogging and shuttering. have to keep pit in D3 driving in the city to prevent it from dropping into OD and bogging the engine
guessing we have the same problem.
is this a thottle linkage issue?

Honda can't make very good auto transmissions apparently.
Seriously though, older GM's use a throttle valve cable (ie. downshift cable) and they are adjustable on those, not sure about the older Accord setups. Improper adjustment will cause all sorts of weird shift point issues, though. It's worth looking into.

Check for transmission codes. There are some codes that do not cause the D4 light or the S light to turn on.
Honda made good automatic transmissions through 97. The 98-02 were built to shift smoother. Those transmissions had a design flaw and they failed a low mileage. It seems like Honda sorted out the automatic transmission problems in the 03+ accords.
Their manual transmissions are pretty rock solid.

seafoamed motor, oil, and gas, got a code 1 and 17.. 1 is due to the crack in the header im guessing but idk why its throwing a 17 when the speedo works just fine..

almost the same, except when accelerating upper moderately hard..the motor will downshift and bog down, thats both city and freeway and reguardless of d4 or d3, even sport mode,
55-60mph is the fastest i can get it to go
