Balwin

Mine did this.

I didnt really care though because I changed it to manual.

Its a common problem for mid90s low 00s auto hondas.

MAD_MIKE

The AT has two shaft speed sensors, and the speedometer sensor. If either becomes contaminated with ferrous particles(they are magnets) it may send an erroneous speed signal to the TCU and it may command an up or down shift.

Balwin

I would start by doing a fluid change and checking to see if the TCU is throwing any codes.

Also do what MAD_MIKE said and clean the sensors.

k i clean the sensors. how do i check the tcu i know how to check the ecu so how do i do the trans computer

Balwin

What year is your accord?


Umm.. do you have a check engine light?

FastF22B2

Not an expert here by any means, but maybe check the throttle control cable to the transmission? I just replaced mine and after adjusting it this made a huge difference in the shifting.
