I drive a 97 Integra GS and just recently I've been having problems with the transmission. Sometimes from a stop the car will run all the way upto redline before changing gears. Also when I'm on a hill and slightly floor it, it does the same thing. Most of the time I'm just driving casualy. I have to get off the gas before it'll change gears. Anybody have the slightest idea what's wrong?

 

Not even a clue as to whats going on?

 

Gear ratio maybe??? i have an auto prelude and when i floor it, it will red line

 

The thing is though I'm not flooring it. It'll just stay in first gear instead of going into second.

 

i think the ECU learns as to wut the driver's habit is
maybe it went a little crazy dat's all
reset the ECU by unplugging the battery or pull the fuse wait 15 minutes and see wut happens
this usually solves the problem
hope this helps:thumbup:

 

you know I was thinking this same thing... I can only hope the problem is this small. I can't afford to fix this as is

 

Actually the problem you are having sounds more like a hydralic problem in the tranny.

 

Sounds like a failing transaxle to me. Honda automatics SUCK!

And no, the shift computer doesn't "learn" anything. It is programmed at the factory and will always act the same way unless something goes wrong.

 

Tranny slippage?
