Default My first sign of tranny problems

I went in this morning for a oil change, while I was talking to the service rep I told him about my problem. I told him that when driving and I release the gas and coast and then press on the gas again the car revs a little bit then it jerks. He tolds me it looks like the beginning of a tranny problem. I told him about the info I got from this forum(and others)and he agreed. I was told when it gets worse bring it in and they will take care of it. My 01 Accord has 23k miles on it. Well I guess it good it's happening now I still have over 3yrs left on my warranty.

is yours a V6? I could have swore Honda put out a campaign to replace those trannies as they tended to go bad more often than not. Can't find it right now, but I swear I remember reading about it.
