Really? After seeing your previous posts about how you abuse the ever living shit out of your car, it doesn't surprise me that you are on your third transmission.

lmao to get you guys wound up. transmissions are cheap. the total bill for a new(used) trans and fluids i had 400$ in it. I'll gladly keep destroying them.

you are an idiot, no money spent is better than 400.

I guess he has money to burn.  I'd rather waste my money on parts that actually make my car faster, hookers, and drugs.  Fucking amateurs.   ::)

Hookers blow and transmissions, Good times ;)

These transmissions are actually pretty stout, i just got unlucky with my second one, broken motor mount FTL. Does anywhere make aftermarket mount? I have broke 3.

Why do you beat the hell out of your car? Have respect for it.

I beat on all my cars and have never broke or blown anything....EVER And I beat on my Accord for 150k+ miles.


Title: Re: So I am on my 3rd M5 Transmission

Maybe he just doesn't know how to drive?  Either way, it's gotta be operator error.  No other logical way to explain why 3 trannys were trashed and all the other problems with the motor.

Here's better motor mounts.

I'm with you on that. Like Jer said, I've beaten on ALL of my cars and not one of them has blown up. Hell, I beat on the wife's old TL on a regular basis and those things had the "weak" auto trannies. Figure that one out.


Title: Re: So I am on my 3rd M5 Transmission
Post by: Icebox on November 19, 2010, 08:48:46 AM
my guess is he needs to learn how to properly drive a manual tranny.

I'm with you on that one Dave.

Haha beating on cars is what i am known for around here. I drive my 15 second accord like i drive 9 second cars.
I know how to drive it, how else would I have ran a 15.4x in a bone stock 4cyl accord?
Wheel hop is what has ruined my car. If my car didnt wheel hop it would never have broke before.. 4 6 disc changers, 3 mounts, crank shaft pulley, and 3 trannys. When the crank pully cracked it leaked almost all the oil out :X

Try to not bump your own waste of forum space. Thanks.

I guess you didn't realize that your Accord isn't a 9 second car.  I guess if you like to trash your own shit and waste your money, more power to you.

I would normally prescribe a dictionary and some common sense, but it seems like there's nothing that can help you at this point.  The good thing is that most addictions end in premature expiration.  Keep doing what you're doing man.

Saw this and couldn't resist.  I don't care if he's on a time out.

Not for nothing, but I was also wondering about the strength of honda's transmissions.  Granted, this guy fucking abused the shit out of each of his transmissions, but, why are they so trouble prone?  Since the first year of owning my car, I had the 3rd gear grind and finally got rid of it once I had the TSB done.  Just curious. 


Title: Re: So I am on my 3rd M5 Transmission

Transmissions arent Honda's strong point (just ask Mike).

Accords are made to be driven by soccer mom's, and although you might not beat on your car you don't drive like that...

Title: Re: So I am on my 3rd M5 Transmission

Here are a few things that I know.  There is a known 3rd gear issue for the J30 6MTs.  There is a fix for that from Honda.  I'm just not sure how reliable the fix is.  Another thing that I know is that my 5MT and 6MT handled the abuse they received from me.  I also want to bring up the fact that there are guys like Cham, who have a stock Accord 5MT with only a LSD as a tranny upgrade, that is making 480 whp for daily driving and 560 whp on high boost.

Post by: gargantula99 on December 20, 2010, 11:07:07 AM
I doubt that "Fix" they gave me is going to last.  I would bet money, that the moment my car is completely out of warranty, that issue will come right back to haunt me.

Not sure if you guys believe the Consumer Reports guys or not but I read all the books on new/used cars. And they gave my 03 trans all black (which is bad but only affects like less than 10%) and I never had any issues with it, albeit it was an auto. 150k+ miles and I changed the trans fluid twice FTW!

Hopefully my 6MT will last me, as long as I change the fluid regularly I should be ok.

Alot of the issues with the pre 05 automatics I attribite to the cooling issues. They had a recall and added a jet to the transmission to increase cooling in a certin area (3rd gear I think) but, if your car already had 25k -30k before the jet was added isn't the damage already done?

All I have to say is that guy is an idiot.  I have owned my car since day one.  The first transmission lasted through 5 full HPDE road course  track days, the infamous burnout, about 7 or 8 times at the dragstrip(one had 22 runs) and 6 auto-x.  The sad thing is that it broke first gear due to me not noticing that the shift cable had come out of it's end and gave the shifter extra slack.  That meant that the tranny was riding the edges of the gears and not fully engaging them.  It didn't break until I had 120k on it while being launched at its 7th auto-x.  Cannot complain about that.
P.S.  all my runs at the strip were between 15.8 and 15.3.  Almost never had wheel hop once I learned how to properly launch it.

On the contrary mine has been worked on 5 times, three of those rebuids in 2 years under normal driving conditions... Some good, and some bad.

Post by: timot_one on December 23, 2010, 09:12:47 AM
I think we need to point out that there is a big difference between the J30 AT and the K24 5MT.  It's not really a fair comparison Mike.

I was under the impression that the Transmissions were very similar.
