You know your Honda Civic's transmission is about to go when....
My 96 Civic DX Coupe 80K makes noise from up front in the engine compartment when going 40-50mph and the gas is l i g h t l y pressed. It sounds like something is loose / jangling. The Honda Stealer says the entire tranny has to go...for many thousands of bucks. Two Indies say the noise is just normal wear and tear and that since mileage and performance have not suffered, its nothing to be worried about. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance. -Slim |

Is this a five speed, or an auto? On the Acura five speed, clutch fingers would break or weaken, and rattle around. I think that caused no problem other than the noise. -- Clarence A Dold - Hidden Valley Lake, CA, USA GPS: 38.8,-122.5 |
