ok just replaced the tranny on my automatic civic because sometimes when you put it in drive it wouldnt go anywhere same with the other gears if you turn it off for a little bit it will take off maybe 300 feet but back to like if it was in neutral. Now after i put the new tranny in it stopped doing it but 3 days later back to same

165,000

kept same torque converter can it be that, o and when i swapped trannys the old one the oil was very black dirty old

 

Probably just the torque converter, be sure and put new Honda auto trans fluid when you reinstall it

 

Why would you re-use the same torque converter? It's probably ruined the rest of the new/good tranny as well.

 

those torque converters hardly go bad ??

 

check your atf dip stick (atf AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID) if its dry the torque converter wont work as they need fluid to work.....

if its full of fluid then i would swap the transmission.

a dead torque converter usually takes the tranny along

 

alright i will i took off earlier and it drove for like 500 feet then felt like it was in neutral after i shut it off for a while it will grab again for another 4-500 feet ??

^ this

 

Need more opinions please

 

Anyone else

 

Anyone else what? You need to change the transmisson again. You can try just a new converter but I'd bet the rest of the tranny is toast as well. If there is a CEL on get the code scanned and see what it says.
