My 2001 Honda Accord just started with noticeable transmission problems late last year. It is not the usual. For the first 5 minutes, it will rev very high going from 1st to 2d (I now know to let off the gas) and then snaps your head off when it shifts after about a second. Next gear is the same. After 5 to 6 minutes, it drives perfectly. If it sits over two hours after warming up, same thing. I have learned to drive it as if it were a manual, letting off the gas as it I were putting in the nonexistent clutch and waiting until the treansmission shifts on its own. The car has 66K miles on it now, has been maintained and I had the transmission fluid changed when this became unbearable in Nov, 2009. They said they saw more than the usual amount of metal and want to sell me a rebuilt tranny. That’s when I learned of the many probs Honda has had with this car. Naturally it’s just past the extended warranty. I am wondering if it’s really the tranny since it drives like normal after it warms up. What else could cause this shifting problem that wouldn’t require a new tranny?


Recently p0780 code popped up i thought it needed a tranmission oil exchange cause the oil was not good. When i drive my car it jerks and it wont pass a certain number. So im figuring its the trans shift solenoid. But idk where its located on my 2001 honda accoord ex v6.
