This is exactly the problem that I am having with my 1999 Accord V6 auto trans with 140,000 miles.

It hesitates a little, possibly slipping. Then it slams into fourth a couple of times a week.

Here is the strange thing: I had a check engine light about 20,000 miles ago. There were two codes. One was tranny malfunction, the other tranny failure. Since that time, I've never had the light on since.

The problem doesn't seem to be getting any worse at all.

Can I expect it to get worse? Can I also expect that at 140,000 miles that the dealer will do nothing for me?

What can I expect to pay to have the tranny fixed?

Thanks!
