I have bought this car new in 2000 and after 3 years of driving i noticed a slipping feeling as i accelerated. I was told by a mechanic that it was my transmission and he suggested doing a full flush. I have done several flushes over the last 5 years and my problem has only gotten worse. This problem is a mechanical malfunction and i feel that honda should have done a recall years ago! *tr

Automatic transmissions problems still persist. Transmission has been replaced three times already. Each time there is a new occurrence of problems. For this latest transmission when driving in congested traffic areas where the transmission does not always go to the next gear, it will "lag" and fall back to the lower gear as if the brake was being applied very hard. Took the car to the service center and was told by…

He said it was leaking fluid out the left side of the transmission and all he could do would be…

I bought my 2000 honda accord brand new. I noticed immediately it shifted rough but i kept it anyway. In 2003 at 84000 miles i was driving down the interstate and the car would not go over 30 mph, almost causing an accident on a busy day. I took it to the honda dealer and they said i had too much transmission fluid in it. They cleaned the filter, and sent it back. It was still doing the same thing. I took it back…

Dt: the tranmission will shift gears very losely and makes a clunking sound but only when it is in reverse. Now it shifts slugishly.

2000 honda accord ex v6 has transmission problems... When car goes from 1st to 2nd it slips really bad. It is a safety hazard because when i'm behind someone and hit the gas it revs up and nothing happens and then it catches and the tires spin. I almost hit someone today with a child in the car. This needs to be fixed now! *tr

Heard a grinding noise from the front of the car. Upon investigation at the dealership, they said it needs a new transmission. I have lost faith in the quality of honda. I am going get the new transmission put in tomorrow. I will post about that experience later (i hope it is good). However, because my warranty is going to run out in less than 3000 miles, i need an extended power train warranty from honda. If honda…

Transmission failure. I have a 2000 honda accord that fell into the category of having a faulty transmission by honda's own acknowledgement. Instead of offering a recall they offered an extended warranty to 109k. Well my car has a 130,000 miles. I am extremely upset that after being told this car should go 200,000 miles by the dealer that instead i have to replace a $3000 transmission. If honda has known about their…

This is my second time filling out this report , i just want to clarify something. I receiveda new transmission when the car had only 1308 miles on it because the first transmission clunked everytime i backed up.
