So today the tranny shop bought my car back, and guess what?? These cats were driving my car!!! Yep my wife was home when they bought it here and she said that they pulled it off the tow, started it up. put it in reverse and then in 1st and pulled it forward inthe parking spot. Im like what the hell. SO when i get home from work i hop into the car and now it grinds in reverse but it stays in gear. I dont know what the hell is wrong. Im still saying shift linkage and gear oil though. what do you guys think??

 

Please don't tell me you put gear oil in your tranny....

 

nope i didnt put anything in the tranny. what do you think it is breakstuff, or anybody. I hope i dont need another tranny. if so i guess ill go with an ls tranny. but i dont think its the tranny.

anyone want to take a shot at this

 

im me an explanation of the entire problem

 

jared did you get the IM i sent you

 

I tell you, check the clutch pedal. If you can modulate the clutch (don't push it all the way to the floor but instead somewhere in between) and get it into/out of gear, then it is likely the height adjustment on the clutch. Easy thing to check, easy thing to fix. Hope this helps.

 

How can i fix this nugget can you give me some guidance on it. or anybody

 

man i just went to the car and now that **** will shift to first with no clutch and reverse with no clutch, but wont shift to any other one when i push in the clutch!!! Aint that some ****??? im just going to take back to the tranny shop and fork over 1400 dollars when i get it. so my baby gonna be still at least until the end of the month.

 

First check out whether or not what I posted above is true. Remember to MODULATE the clutch (try it at different positions). If it just doesn't work at all, then I doubt it would be the clutch adjustment. I gave some instructions for this here https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=64995 . Any questions just ask.

man i dont know what the hell is up with this car....

tonight im outside with my boy showing him the problems i have with the car, and this time the car goes from 1st-reverse with the clutch in the problem that popped up tonight is that the reverse gear will not engaged or something. when i go into reverse the gear just grinds when i give it gas and the car just rolls. the reverse lights dont even come on. I think i just need to get a new tranny and gear set up. Or maybe just new gears and shiftlikage. Also a hydro clutch doesnt use a cable does it??
