Sometimes they'll extend the warranty for some TSB's, check around at different dealers.

Sounds like a syncro to me too. Didn't know 5th had problems too...

call honda and ask them about it. You never know, they might replace it for free since there was a service bulletin. But a job like that would be pricey. Pulling the tranny and replacing syncros. At the same time it would be better to just overhaul the tranny. Techs would already be in there, replacing bearings and anything else that is worn would be ideal. But if you are looking to save money, just buy a used tranny and get it installed.

Yup, if Honda won't cover it, best bet is a used one. I would just drive that one till it really goes, may give you some time to save some money up.
