Honda Accord '98 - Automatic Transmission - Slipping
Hi there,
I have a feeling that there's some slipping in transmission in first gear range (0-15 mph) especially in cold weather. Yesterday, I have replaced the transmission fluid with Honda ATF. No significant difference so far. Is this all normal or is it something that I should look into seriously? Any help there!

One thing that I find so strange is how can an independant auto shop flush a tranny and re-fill with something other than ATF?
I mean it says it in the manual yet they still do it.
Hopefully this isnt his case because eventually that tranny will fail.

From a dead stop does the engine rev up a lot and then takes off?
Is the slipping only occuring on the 1st - 2nd shift?
also, do you have a 4cyl?
If you do, well if its a 6 or 4 im hopeful your not over 105k so honda can look at it. If so, then we can start by isolating certain solenoids.
give us a better description of your symptons and i ( we ) will try our best to help.

Basically, you should never get your tranny flushed EVER. Only do a drain, refill. Which consists of draning, refilling, driving to normal opp. temp, drain, and refill again.
