attention mechanics...need help urgent
im having an issue with my 93 civic automatic transmission...can someone answer some of my questions for me..i will greatly appreciate it.
1. my car will not go into reverse..what is the reason for this.
2. sometimes my transmission will not change gears, and i will be redlining for like 5 mins or so..b4 it does change gears.
3. i think my transmission has gone bad, will a 88-91 civic ex transmission work with my motor..i have a d16y7, will this require some work? or is it like plug and play. i have done about 10 tranny jobs on my crx, so i know how to drop and put a new one in.
thanx in advance guys...and btw: i have check the tranny fluid, there is some in there, and like 3 weeks ago i put about 3 quarts in..k thx.

I would say to scour the classifieds for a tranny near you. It'll be easier and better to find the proper tranny that works correctly. Itf the valve body in the tranny gets clogged, dirty, or dry, it may not shift gears properly. I don't know a whole lot about auto trannies, but it sounds to me like you'll want to replace it. In a 93, you probably have a ton of miles on it! Time for a new one if it were me.

Re: attention mechanics...need help urgent (civicmatt)
how many quarts of tranny fluid do you suspect is in there total??? Just seems like adding 3 quarts when ther eis already some seems excessive. Either way your tranny is shot and you need to stop driving on it as long as its redlining your motor and ****!! I dont know about the 88-91 tranny though, sorry.
