- This was my first automatic transmission overhaul and I took these video clips mostly to help myself remember how it came apart, but decided to share this information with you as well because youtubers assisted me with preparing for the job and I wanted to contribute something back.
Bit of backstory, I bought the car with 195k and existing severe transmission problems. You could get it to set a P0730 and P0740 but you could need to go 15 miles of hellish driving to get those codes. Some days you could drive it if you could get it to stick in 3rd gear like a limp mode, and other days it would just neutral out and you couldn't go forward. Then it would catch 1st finally and get you going down the street and neutral out when it shifted out of 1st and you just had to hope playing with the shifter and revving it that it would catch 3rd gear limp mode. If not, you had to stop, take off like a maniac in 1st and try again. Traffic didn't like me many times.
Then I cleaned metal and clutch dust from the screens built into the gasket for the TCC/lockup solenoid and suddenly started using all 4 gears normally but flared for almost 3 seconds between every shift and if you didn't line up the RPM where is was going to be when that gear engaged, SLAM! Every clutch apply was a total dump, all or nothing.
Then the torque converter clutch would stick on and make it want to stall whenever the car was stopped. You'd put it in gear and it would slam and chirp the tires and hopefully it wouldn't stall, and you'd have to pull up to a stop with your right foot holding the throttle open to try and fight it from stalling which sometimes wouldn't work and you'd stall anytime you stopped. If you could get it going up to 50mph AND go into 4th gear, the TCC control would start operating and usually get you unstuck for a little while so you could take it easy for a bit.
During this whole time also, the drivers side diff bearing was so worn out and moving around producing metal debris inside the trans. The axle would move around so much in the axle seal that it was leaking about a quart every 15 miles.
Anyway 100 miles of that and it was time to fix it. At time of posting this video the trans has 1600 miles daily driven on it with no issues.
Makco Transmission parts supplied me with a master overhaul kit with frictions/steels and a reman torque converter, both Transtar brand for a bit under $500
Got everything else from the dealer, including a new set of differential carrier bearings. I used the Sons Honda parts website for looking up parts info. Search for it if you need to see the real Honda dealer parts catalog, it's easy to find and it's all there.
what I am learning the worn out friction material is causing a clog where ever there is a filter causing low pressure high heat then look to see how many parts got warn out bearings, gears ect then clean the hell out of it
Hey mike! My name is Michael from makco transmission parts! You did a great job here and we thank you for choosing makco for your transmission parts needs!
Michael Tomlin I was happy to find your company easily with Google search, and I liked the variety of options offered as far as transmission overhaul kits and aftermarket improvement parts. When I had a minor issue with the TC core return, it was resolved quickly via email. I will recommend/use Makco with any future transmission projects.
Needed to see how took it apart but u skipped those areas other then that great video.
Hey thanks, man. See if the part you were looking for is in this other video : th-cam.com/video/JUxZJcJzcBY/w-d-xo.html
This looks very doable for a basic mechanic person , if an place to do it is available etc.It seems you went to AAMCO trans shop and bought a kit and maybe a few misc things at a nother local trans parts place??Did you get bearing s pressed on at AAMCO or a part store place with tools to do that as my gear has once bad bearing needing that done.?$1600.00 for a rebuilt unit is a deal, if car is nice.It is a toss up is spending $1600ish dollars to redo mine,, as this era of cars are plentiful running for about that price or parting them out, with good trans in them for 300 bucks or so..
como hago para que expliquen en español, soy de venezuela, gracias, muy interesante sus videos pero no entiendo al interprete
Would you recommend getting the parts and just doing a complete overhaul.
My experience with this transmission was that I should have ordered a "deluxe" overhaul kit from the beginning, which is one that includes all the frictions and steels. If you watch my other videos on his unit, you'll see it needed a lot of valve body repair, so keep that in mind. Most people will not get involved in that and just replace them. To replace the 3 valve bodies was around $2000, so I saved that by churching them up. A side note: This is still my rainy day/winter car, with 60k miles of assault on this transmission since I fixed it.
I have a 98 Accord with this transmission, but its got major issues. It only has second gear unless I unplug the torque solenoid. After that, I have 2nd, 4th and reverse. Tried flushing it, replaced all of the solenoids, switches and sensors and still having this issue. I can't afford to replace it or rebuild it. I have about $1.50 to my name and my income is piss poor. What can I do?
Rebuild it or buy a new one
@@iveacendedboyos1555 Too little too late. Scrapped it soon after this.
What did it cost you to overhaul?
$500 for overhaul kit and torque converter, $120 for diff bearings and shims, about $600 in solenoids, and a couple hundred more for incidentals like fluid, other gaskets, couple cases of brake cleaner, rags, etc. About $1400 total. It would have gotten a new valve body if it was done for anybody else. It's mint though and was worth it considering the $800 price of the car and how nice it is otherwise.
