    Hi. What happened to the search options? Used to be able to limit search to whole forum or specific 11th gen forum. Can't do that now?

    Hey Fred. Hope u can help! 04 Accord V6 auto trans.150k miles. Just got it. Test drove when warm, then found out it'll shift into 4th when warm but not b4. Warming up in the driveway works too. Chgd the 2 press sensors and cleaned the 3 solenoids and meas 5.5 ohms on them. Chgd the trans filter and did our 1st D&R w Honda DW-1. Gonna D&R 2 more x to see what happens. Are we on the right track? Is LubeGuard good? thx

    Original trans? '03 and '04 v6 autos have a internal lube issue that starves parts inside, that then causes pressure loss, especially when cold. When it tries for 4th does it neutral out?

    Thanks so much for your help. My son says that if he starts driving it when cold it will basically just stay in 3rd until the engine gets to normal operating temp. Then typically will need to pull over and turn the car off and on again. He said it doesn't neutral out, but might hunt a little for 4th. After that he said that OD has a little delay too before everything starts shifting fine.

    Re original trans... When I was working on the solenoids I saw almost all harness push retainers missing and some blue writing on a part that makes me think the tranny was replaced. Though, the refill plug is just a plug and doesn't have that little curved tube coming out of it that I've seen on other cars. Is there any mod/kit that I can install to help it?
