tranny question
 

sometimes my tranny shifts a little rough. itll sorta pull back and jerk into the next gear and i don't like that. other times it'll shift nicely. i'm thinking about replacing the fluid. will this help? my friends dad works at a tranny shop so i can talk to him about it but still input would be appreciated. thanks

yeah my tranny does that a lot but it's shot. changing the fluid will help a lot. to have my tranny work great i have to change the fluid with every engine oil change:mad:

Replace the fluid with Honda fluid, and just drain and refill. DO NOT do the trany flush. Honda transmissions are not to be pressurized as in the flushing process. I just did this a couple of weeks ago and it shifts sooo much better. The dealer only charges like $35.

awesome i really appreciate it
how do i go about doing this drain and refil. can i go to a dealer or is it something i can do myself?

it's really easy to do. all you need is a 3/8" ratchet and the plug is on the pass side of the car. you need to take off the wheel to get to it. i'd say it's a 30min job:yes:

cool cool. so its basically the same process as replacing oil just w/o a filter?


about the tranny flush, what exactly is that process (i'm not going to do it i'm just curious)
