Rep Power: 0 Check around for prices at other shops, because the dealer is quoting you for a brand new tranny when you might find a shop that will rebuild it for much less. Plus dealers no matter what you have done are way over priced.
sorry about your tans man. i'm kinda hoping that my trans (auto) will go out at 40,000 mi or earlier. i really want to change it to manual. i don't even know if that's possible... is it? i have an LX coupe.

Sadly, this is not uncommon. Seems everytime I check VI/P someone has lost another auto.[hr]

Rep Power: 0 I think the reason why the Auto tranny's keep going out is because the people driving them are pretty hard on the transmissions, brake torquing, and "auto drops" are very hard on these transmissions, while doing a clutch drop wear a manual that much.

Rep Power: 0 I feel my tranny going too. But it's not serious enough as of yet.
Sorry about your car man. But 4000miles over Honda won't do jack about it. If it were something like 40 miles over then yeah. But man that just sucks.
I got extended warranty on my car, I can't remember if tranny's are covered under that?

Rep Power: 0 i have an auto and it's still fine... still feels kinda strong... except sometimes it kinda "slips" but other than that... it feels okay i have 48,000 and it's a little less than 2 years old... and besides i don't think warranty covers it cuz wouldn't it be under wear and tear?

Rep Power: 0 61k miles on my hard driven automatic 2001 LX w/17in chrome wheels 215/45/17 no problems.. ok... one problem, but it has always done it from 1 mile
when I'm slowing down going down a hill, around 40mph, the tranny downshifts weird to 2nd gear all by itself.. I checked fluid levels... Other than that.. nothing wrong at all.. smooth shifting. I rarely downshift.. (drilled/slotted rotors) for that
