For your information, the transmission in 6th gen V6 Accords are made in Japan.
Mechanics at a local honda dealership said my accord was american made.
:dunno:
Said if the VIN begins with 1 then it was made in the US! They probably were giving me :bs:. I don't know these things!

i've heard that flushing can move around some of the metal filings in the tranny and can actually mess shit up.

exactly ... there's all sorts of metalic shavings and grit in the tranny that settled towards the bottom of the pan. when you get your tranny completely flushed, some of crap gets washed back into the transmission. the suggested way to do a complete fluid change is to drain 3 quarts, fill 3 quarts, and do it again in 100 miles.
Thx for the info guys, guess I'll save myself $200 and continue to flush & fill. Maybe I'll get lucky and the problem will correct itself.
