does 1994 honda accord automatic, have a filter?
I went to drain my automatic transmission fluid today, and found that there wasn't a filter there.
is this normal? or do honda accords this year dont have a filter.

No Honda has the conventional type transmission filter that you find in other cars. Like was said above ... just drain and refill.

I changed the fluid and stuck in mobil 1 synthetic...The car has 96k and the transmission shifts funny...especially 1st to 2nd gear...it wants to jerk...
anyone have any ideas? maybe I should put one of those additives in there, or an ATF conditioner?
thanks

Are you saying before or after you changed it, it shifts weird? You did put in transmission fluid, and not normal Mobil 1 synthetic that is in a gray bottle right??? That would make it shift really weird. What viscosity did you get? If so, I heard that ports that flow oil can get plugged.

Only use Honda ATF when changing the fluid. Adding a bottle of GM Synchromesh isn't a bad idea either.

the jerking started before i stuck in the mobil 1 synthetic ATF.
Anyways, you can use GM syncromesh in an automatic tranny car?

Mobil makes Mobil 1 synthetic ATF but the bottle's a darker grey than their engine oils. I wouldn't recommend using that in a Honda, though. I don't know if the Mobil 1 ATF has all the lubricants and sealers in a Honda ATF.
If you want to get rid of your jerk, do a drain and refill about 3 to 4 times. It's a poor man's flush. It's safer than a machine flush since the machine may force a lot of debris through the internal screen (non-user-replaceable filter) and clog it. Instead, drain your ATF after driving about 100 miles and refill it. Drive another 100 miles, drain and refill it. Do this about 3 to 4 times and you should be able to pull most of your oil ATF out and have newer ATF in.

you CAN check the filters by unscrewing those two "cylinder" like things sticking out of the transmission. There's two, one on the top and one down below. Once you take it apart you'll see this rubber and mesh thing, sometimes you'll see particles on it.
