1995 honda accord automatic torque converter problems




















I can't recall how many times I've practically been ran off the road by tractor trailers because my car couldn't shift and accelerate fast enough to get onto the highway. Honda should be ashamed of themselves. Does it really take someone to die before they try to remedy the situation?. The contact owns a Honda Accord.

The contact stated that the transmission recurringly failed. Initially, the torque converter solenoid circuit failed and the transmission was replaced. The contact was driving 30 mph when the vehicle lost acceleration power and the transmission failed again.

The transmission was replaced a second time at 46, miles but the failure recurred. The vehicle was not repaired for the most recent failure. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown and the current mileage was , While driving at 36 mph, the vehicle suddenly jerked forward, followed by a metal to metal noise.

The driver coasted the vehicle to a stop, then had the vehicle towed to a dealership. The dealership flushed the transmission because the fluid was burnt, but the metal noise was still present. A diagnostic test was performed. The front pump was found to be the main cause of the failure. Excessive metal was also found in transmission pan as well as fluid and the forward drum was damaged. A re manufactured transmission with a torque converter was installed.

No recall pertaining to this vehicle found. Transmission slips horribly; gears are all screwed up; torque convert clutch circuit malfunction ; almost got hit by an 18 wheeler when crossing an intersection; was told that it is a very common problem in v6 Accords. Engine error code: p Other Power Train related problems of the Honda Accord.

Automatic Transmission problems Automatic Transmission problems. Transmission Failure problems. Transmission Gear Slipping problems. Power Train problems. Differential Unit problems.

Transmission Not Go Into Gear problems. Transmission Fluid Leaking problems. Vehicle Shudder problems. Transmission Shudder problems. Was this answer. But like I mentioned the transmission was rebuilt already so could it be internally inside the transmission stilll and alot of people mentioned the TCM Transmissoin Control Module or the Transmission Shifting Solenoid I would put it on a scanner but I dont have a truck to get it towed down to the mechanic shop for Diagnostic.

During rebuilding, the damage to the part concerned could have been overlooked. There is no need to send the vehicle for diagnostic scanning. You can retrieve the trouble codes if any. Faults with the TCM would usually show with the D4 indicator light blinking while driving. I have encountered at least 3 cases of such problems but none of them had been due to TCM fault. Never had the chance to find out what went wrong but all cases were rectified with replacement of the trans assy complete with torque converter.

To date, Honda refuses to acknowledge that issue. As I pushed down on gas the car hesitated to go and my check engine light pops on. I took my car to advanced auto parts to check it and it read transmission torque converter. This car has the v6 engine in it. I noticed a slight vibration when driving at about 40 mph when the car had miles on it. I took it to the dealer and they kept it for a week and said their experts in California could not see it on the computer data collected.

Over a period of several months, I had it in for the same issue and finally they replaced the torque converter. The issue got considerable worse after that. I brought it back several more times, a total of over 30 days in their shop, and they now say this is normal for the car.

They say the variable cylinder management vcm system is pulsing at 50 hz to save fuel and this pulsing causes a resonance that I am feeling and hearing. They say it is not a safety issue but I don't believe them. The vibration and noise now occurs at any speed from 15 to 60 mph. In my experience, any mechanical system that hits a resonate frequency eventually fails.

The dealer's one mechanic told me this is the worst he has ever felt or heard but he can't do anything about it unless the California boys approve it. He said if he unplugs the vcm the noise and vibration go away. Any help you could provide would be appreciated. I own a Accord v6 with a little over , miles. Check engine light came on after car had been hesitating and slipping when changing gears. Also was pulling when going around corners almost felt like braking automaticall.

Took the car in, and initially there was a code for iacv idle air control valve. Auto shop flushed the system, reset check engine light. The next day, check engine light came on again. Brought it in after a couple of weeks and it's a code p for tcc torque converter clutch solenoid valve circuit malfunction.

Was told it's the transmission, which appears to be happening quite frequently - and conveniently after the , warranty extension was granted. Per Honda manual recommendation for a tune-up , mile; on April, I went into nalley Honda for my k tune-up. Shortly after this service was performed, my car stared to pulsate.

I return my car back to dealer and was advised I need a fuel flush. They stated this was not part of the tune-up, but should be done with a tune-up. I paid for a fuel flush. The problem still existed. I went back to the dealer and inquired if they had changes all six of my plugs and wires. They said yes. I asked why was I still having this issue after getting a tune-up. I was asked the grade of gas I use. I told the service tech 87, that is what the manual recommended.

I was told to try 93 grade for about a month to see if that will filter and clean the lines. I did. However, the problem still occurs but not as bad. I call and scheduled an appointment for Saturday after thanksgiving. I'm now being told my transmission is going bad torque converter.

I said that is not possible. A vehicle with only , mile and my transmission is going out. I said there is no way transmission should be going out on a model vehicle with only , miles. Honda need to investigate if this is a defect issue. The service manager said no, Honda does not have a recall on the problem. Someone please help!. The contact stated that the engine warning lamp illuminated.

The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technician diagnosed that the torque converter clutch solenoid malfunctioned prematurely and needed to be replaced.

The failure mileage was , and the current mileage was , While accelerating to highway speed 65 my car automatic transmission suddenly fell out of gear and the engine raced to 6k rpms and was unable to catch gear again with patting the gas peddle. It was almost as if the cars brake was on because there was almost no glide. I was just barely able to get off to the shoulder and not be rear-ended at high speed.

I turned off the car for a few minutes and started it back up and it was able to progress through shifting but is now unable to advance above 50 miles per hour due to it not being able to shift higher.

It is also falling out of gear when idling. I kept regular maintenance on my car and changed the transmission fluid about 15k miles before I experienced this issue.

The car began driving rough in city driving, gradually becoming worse. Now it shudders and rattles at mph. Fortunately it didn't just cut out at a dangerous time.

Replacement cost is nearly the value of the vehicle. The car wont shift out of first gear. Mechanic says torque converter is broken. This seems to be a problem with this car. I have a Accord ex-l v6. I began hearing a strange noise from the transmission with a loss of motive power at speeds between 25 to 45 mph. The torque converter needed replacing. Car had 97k miles.

The transmission is slipping between 1st and 2nd gear as well as 3rd and 4th gear. We took it into a shop and was told the transmission needs to be rebuilt. This car was purchased brand new and has around 80, miles. The guy at the transmission shop stated this was a known issue with Honda but they were not willing to fix it.

He stated the plastic caps on the torque converter were breaking and should have never been used at all.
