Working on my wife's 2005 Honda CRV AWD. The vehicle had a really bad whine upon starting to accelerate from a stop along with having a shudder when trying to lock up at low speed.
I need help with my 2006 Honda elements automatic transmission, First symptom when it started was when I entered the highway accelerating normal and when it after 2nd gear was about to shift up it wouldn’t go into 3rd gear for over 10 seconds no matter how much I was gasing it and then I shifted it to neutral back to drive and went back to normal. Now it happened again this time leaving my neighborhood at low speeds and now 2nd and 3rd gear wouldn’t go into gear and just rev up. Now finally I was on the highway and when traffic started I slowed down and now it wouldn’t go into 1st gear and had to pull over and after 15minutes I tried again and would drive but it was barely going into gear and not shifting properly anymore, at the end when I last parked it would barely reverse now as well. Seems like it’s slipping every gear now especially after it warms up. I haven’t tried flushing the fluid yet or anything just have it parked so that I don’t mess it up fixing it wrong. If anybody can narrow down what’s going on I will fix it next week with my paycheck just don’t want to replace my transmission because it has always been good to me and still feels like it can be saved. Please and thank you for taking the time to read my problem
That's what I think is wrong with my brother's 1999 cr-v. Because he didn't change his transmission fluid in three years. He ruined two cr-v's because of this.
Can you clarify how you slide the new torque converter onto the transmission? I thought you had to slide it on, then turn it a bit, then slide it on further? Also, any maintenance you would recommend on the transmission while you have it out? Thank you for posting this video, greatly appreciated.
I got mine from O'Reilly Auto Parts. You do need to get the o-ring for the torque converter hub separately though, part number from Honda is 91302-P7A-003. Also been going two months since the actual replacement of the torque converter and going strong.
@captaininsano2777 everywhere I look it shows to be the same for AWD and 2WD. Best bet might be to call a dealer give them your VIN and get a part number to be interchanged interchanged. Or get the transmission code and search for a part number by transmission code
Did your new torque converter have fluid in it when trying to spin torque converter? My stator will turn only one direction when filled with fluid but will spin in both direction when empty but with more resistance in one..
The new one was bone dry right out of the box when tested. In my experience, the stator itself should only spin in one direction with or without fluid.
