hey I have a 92 accord lx, auto, and it was working fine, it has 140K on the odometer, and just all of a sudden it does not want to go into any gear except reverse but even reverse takes time to get it in, or does not work at all. I suspect it is one of the solenoids as the transmission fluid does not go down at all even when you start it up. I think it could be a bad solenoid or a bad ECU fuse, is there anything else to check for? I dont think it is the torque converter or a major problem because it was working fine.... this only happened after a 60 mile drive and it makes a weird noise coming from the flywheel when it is in park then when put into drive or any other gear other than reverse it just revs but the sound isnt there, does anyone have any suggestions? thanks, appreciated.

 

also, another symptom is that even if its warm right when you start it up it will drive ok for like 20 seconds then just lose everything, then if you start it up it will do the same etc etc....

 

Sounds like the cluchpacks and bands a fried. Is the fluid a burnt brown color? does it smell burnt?

 

nah the fluid is fine, but I think hes gonna go with a replacement tranny afterall.....
