my 96 civic (auto, couple) right axle pop out yesterday. dealer replaced it, and told me the old axle was either wrong one or put in incorrectly. the teeth on the axle worn out. my questions are:
1. any damage to transmission
2. if the axle pops out, does it mean that the old axle is either wrong one or put in incirrectly, (the right axle was replaced on august, i put 2000 miles before it poped out

just need the right axle. I had that happen to me once when I bought an axle from pepboys, turns out it was like 2 mms to short and popped out so I just took it back to them and bought one from somewhere else put it in and never had another problem....didnt hurt anything

I'm pretty sure there is no damage to your tranny, with the exception of small metal pieces floating around from the grinded up teeth. Nothing a tranny flush shouldn't fix. As for the axle, it may have been bad, I haven't heard of that happening before, except after swaps. Maybe someone else who has experienced this can chime in.

just like echelon said there should be no damage to the tranny, i just had this happend to me recently with two different tranny's. just a bad axle
