I'm just trying to remember what the Independent shop told me. I actually would trust them more than the dealership to do the correct job. Maybe I just figured "flushing" was when you drained, re-filled, drained, and filled it up again. If they had flushed it like was bad, wouldn't it have started to go back sooner than 30k more miles? I figure the dealer would already have told me I didn't have genuine Honda ATF in my car.

Honda Service rep just called and told me my car is throwing a check engine light for "solenoid". He didn't specify which. The engline light has come on every time I've seen this problem, so I would assume this is related to my shifting problems.

Maybe all I need is transmission fluid drained and replaced again. (Crossing fingers).
