Manuel Shifter
2001 honda civic manuel transmission help!?
Hey guys, i have a 2001 honda civic ex, with 80k miles on it, now the transmission is acting up, i heard its a common problem, i was wondering if someone could help me identify the malfunctioning parts and tell me how to replace them. 1st gear is fine, 2nd gear is slipping out, i have to put alot of pressure on the shifter for it to catch otherwise it grinds, and now 3rd gear grinds nevertheless but doesnt slip, it seems if i let it sit in neutral for a few seconds, then shift it works fine. 4th and 5th are fine. Honda deal says its a $1900 fix, so any insight would help, thanks - Mike
First, what fluid are you using? Drain out the old stuff and fill with Honda Manual Transmission Fluid (the new formulation with the green label on it, not the old in the plain gray container) and see if that resolves some of it You need 2 quarts to fill up and probably need to use a $12 fluid pump to pull the job off easily. Beyond that, I'm not a transmission guru but I can tell you that you are unlikely to get a knowledgeable answer to to this here. Try a site that has an active Honda community.. Hondahookup.com for example since you have a civic.
Do not go to a dealership for this. You will pay 1/2 the price for just as good work at an independent shop.
