Default 3rd gear wall already there, but now 2nd!! wTf!

HOW? expletive honda! thats all i gotta say, sorry but someone had to say it, i work hard to pay on my car, an 06 type s, wut i have always wanted, only to be left disappointed and in the wind alone. Has anyone been able to get there problem fixed with someone higher up in the chain of command per honda? dont kno bout ya'll, but this is my last honda, i guess honda made me a hypocrit with my screen name. those FUC@ERS

3rd gear grind?

I had that crap since I got my car at 28k. Drove it to 40k and still persists every now and then.

And then.. I changed the transmission fluid, Royal Purple, and I have not had a grind yet.. its been like.. 5 months now.

Royal Purple owns me

Honda Manual Transmissions + Honda Manual Transmission Fluid= Long Lasting Transmission

If you put anything else in your transmission your asking for trouble.

It would be funny though, when your tranny takes a ****, and some service guy from honda drains purple **** from your tranny.

Hondas have been running GM Syncromesh Friction modified for years with no problems. Hondas tranny fluid even the new stuff sucks. It would be hard for Honda to prove the difference between these 2 fluids after time because they will all change color. Dunno about Royal Purple. Never been a fan of that snake oil.

I won't argue with that, but I know honda would give somebody lots of ****, if it came to warranty work, when they drain purple **** from a tranny.

It also depends on how you drive. Some people think they are Mario Andretti and are constantly bangin gears. Also if your stomping on and off the gas while in a gear....this stuff will take its toll.
