new auto or swap to manual

ok so my auto tranny has been acting up a bit
so i got it flushed with new honda at fluid a couple months back
it helped a little bit but it still slips into neutral before going into the next gear

i dont know whats wrong with it maybe somone has had the same problem and knows whats going on

well im thinking depending on how much it would cost to fix the auto tranny would it just be cheaper to swap in a manual tranny?
my warranty is gone so i dont really care about that

try and find out what is wrong with it first, it could be something simple and inexpensive.

ACURAwerx is on a distinguished road
If i were you, i'd just save money for a k20 swap. If you can't afford that then get a manual swap. If you don't care about driving manual or don't want to, then just get a auto build up kit or something! But if the auto tranny with be cheap to fix, then just get it fixed.. good luck. I doubt itll be cheaper to swap a manual tranny, isn't a new auto tranny 800 bux? (i dontknow where i got tha tnumber from).

Go to a junkyard and pull out a 5 spd tranny or a whole new engine and drive train. If you go to the right place, they can swap out the old for the new pretty cheap. The only thing that sucks is the shift assembly and the necessary third peddle

The acutual manual tranny isnt whats going to run you the most, it will be the pedal, linkage and shift assemblies.
