1. I'm not certain that you should: I had a transmission linkage problem, and I took my '93 Accord to a transmission place (Cottman's). In the end, those skilled pros really couldn't do anything--they directed me to a Honda dealer, instead! (I was very puzzled!: They couldn't even get to first base.)
2. You see, virtually everything concerning Honda automatic transmissions is proprietary--down to the fluid! You wish to put a junkyard trans in your ancient Honda?: Good luck! It may prove an uphill battle--very difficult.
3. So, you have a clever jack which lifts small transmissions?: You need help--someone who works/worked for Honda, or knows Hondas very well. Info online proves scarce:
4. You may obtain a relevant Honda repair manual from a Honda dealer--you should start with that--given that you're still brave enough for DIY...Hayne's and Chilton's offer no help--it's way beyond their scope....
5. It may be the linkage--not the trans--hope it's the linkage!
if its automatic, the dipstick should be on the top/back of the transmission on the left side of the engine bay, under the air intake. if its a 5-speed, there is no dipstick and it might be the clutch slipping. the locks might be caused by a sticky mechanism. take the door panel off and grease all of the door lock parts. good luck!
Sounds like it could be the ECU (electronic control unit); easy to change. I have bought used ones a lot cheaper than new ones and work fine. Your year may be located under the glove box to the right behind panel (my older car was passenger side under the mat). They are easy to change out regardless of location.
i had the same problem on my accord 98 coupe 98. and one day they stop working. i changed the engines of the locks and now the doors are working gr8! hope it helps
Well it sounds like you have got a clutch problem and so to check all you do is.....
1 Dose the clutch start to drive about 2"from the top.
2,Dose it grind going into Reverse gear ,and when you go to overtake another car the engine starts reving but you dont go any faster.. (yes)
Take it in to the garage and get a new clutch assy fitted (its the only way. let me know how you go
yes..sir you must take your car to the nearst Honda Service Station and ask to the mechanic there to check the transmission and replace the clutch with new one. don't forget to check and maybe change all oil that have connected with your transmission. all work maybe take 1 or 2 days depend on the part that you need to change
Does your speedometer work properly? if not, check your speed sensor. Many times the connection to your speed sensor may be left disconnected especially after clutch replacement.
