After briefly pulling a small trailer, the next day the transmission started having sticking or shifting delays. I took it in right away. A repair was not possible, entire transmission needed to be replaced/overhauled. In the end, I found out that the previous transmission replacement that occurred 7 years ago by a local Honda dealership had a missing bearing right from the start (which explains the constant minor issues I have been experiencing since then and there looks to be nothing I can do about it because that dealership has since closed). |
