tranny problem after ATF change
people i changed my ATF and now wehen i press the X there is no acceleration. This goes on until i completely stop and change gears and start back. it happens frequently but not all the time. Its like the tranny is going. my mech says its not a problem but i don't think he understands the full problem. what do you guys think? ever experienced this
Re: tranny problem after ATF change
How many miles are on the car, and what was the color of the ATF that came out? I have always heard, and learned in school that once the ATF has gone black, and you flush and put new tranny fluid in, it messes it up badly.
Re: tranny problem after ATF change
almost 100000 miles. i didn't come out black, more brown. and i din't flush, just drain and refill only using 3 qts
when i satrt drivin it piulls off normal. only when i brake and mash the accelerator again there's no acceleration. the car revs up but no movement

Re: tranny problem after ATF change
Your trans is slipping.
What brand ATF are you using?
If it is not honda, you need to flush the trans with Honda ATF then refill with Honda ATF.

Re: tranny problem after ATF change
How do you answer a question with a question? What type ATF did you use for the change? Have you checked the ATF level with a warm car and while it is running?
Re: tranny problem after ATF change
Check your throttle body for carbon build up always good to clean it out every once in a while, although i doubt thats it. If its starting to slip I would put some Lucas transmission fix in and see if that does anything. Cant go wrong for $10.
Re: tranny problem after ATF change
If the third gear is slipping when i'm in drive as the car suddenly over revs but no acceleartion, but when i'm in D3, the car jus doesn't go into third gear, it doesn't slip, do i have to rebuild or replace the tranny or can that specific clutch be fixed?
Re: tranny problem after ATF change
also sometimes when i'm ddriving and reving at 3000rmps i suddenly hear a buck and the revs go down to 2000 and so i could get a few more kph out of the engine. the mech say its shifting. don't kno if that could help.
i think its more an electrical prob because i have no problem or delay when going into drive or reverse

Re: tranny problem after ATF change
well yeah you will have to rebuild it. its prolly just a bad clutch but tranny still has to be opened to change anything.
