Hey everyone, been having a problem with my accord recently. I notice that when I drive the car(which is usually every few weeks/days) there seems to be a lag shifting into second gear. This started happening not long after I got a P1739 code which ended up being a transmission switch filled with oil according to the mechanic. So the code's fixed(it hasn't gone back on at least), not sure if that had anything to do with what I'm experiencing now. I feel like after driving for a bit the slowness in the shifting stops, but first thing in the morning going up my driveway, and stopping at the first few stops I definitely notice a lag after the first shift.
As far as the car goes, it's a 1999 4cyl auto and has 160k miles on the tranny and it was rebuilt at around 110k I believe. I'm really hoping it's not the tranny getting ready to die..
Any thoughts on what the problem could be? Am I looking at a new tranny or could it be simpler? The car needs an oil change, and no idea the last time the transmission oil was changed so I assume that would be a start.
Any help/suggestions greatly appreciated, thank you!
