Your transmission is done. Time for a rebuild or 5spd swap.

Ahhh, sounds like bad clutch bands. The only way to fix it would be to take the tranny out and rebuild it. It doesnt matter if the fluid is still red. Have you had a flush by chance?
This is the reason why I have given up on Honda automatics, they suck.

yea i had a flush. would it be cheaper to get a 5spd conversion or R&R my tranny?
5 speed is expensive but the good thing is that it lasts forever unlike an automatic. That explains a lot then. A flush basically kills your transmission. A drain and fill is what you were supposed to do.

That's where you F'd up, or the shop. Ask or call Honda about flushing automatic transmissions or engines. ITS NOT NEEDED! It releases too much debris at one time and causes things to malfunction.
Let me guess...Jiffy Lube Express Expertise Service?
Sorry dude...but in all honesty, who ever did your flush, contributed to your problem.
