    4th gear slipping (auto tranny)

    4th gear slips grinds and I can no longer drive in D4. Something simple maybe? I'll check fluids later tonight.. I hope this doesn't end up with forking out $$ for a mechanic to fix it.
    Now:
    -1988 Honda Prelude custom
    -1988 Honda Accord (to be fixed and sold)
    Soon:
    -some big 4x4 truck
    -91 Acura NSX

    er I think I typed my post wrong

    What I mean is that in 4th gear, my car will shake and rattle when I push the gas. This happens regardless what speed I'm travelling at. Driving in D3 works fine but that 4th gear would be handy... I might have it checked out in the next few days

    try changing trans fliud with engine/trans hot so you get all contaminents out when draining, also use some genunine honda
    stuff. Overdrive transmissions are real senistive with the correct fliuds.
