dealership ....nahhh bro they will take mad money out from u....just take it to any mechanic shop that has a conputer to scan it ... or ask in some auto part if they scan ur conputer ...sometimes they do it for u ...but im sure is ur tranny

the honda dealership will have a scan tool and check your codes for you. just tell them your D4 light is blinking and they'll know what to do. they'll tell you if your tranny is junk or not. cross your fingers, hopefully its just a shift solenoid or something simple on the outside of the tranny.

Make sure you trust where ever it is you are taking your car. Dont want them just saying its a transmission when it could be something smaller.

The dealer is always your best bet for actually fixing engine/tranny problems. Always. Dealer diagnosis feee is like $100 and that includes canning for codes, test driving and actually figuring out what the exact problem is. You're not just paying for them to scan your codes when autozone can do it for free.

Take it to a TRANSMISSION shop, preferably not some chain like AAMCO or whatever those tranny places are called. Even if they do suggest a rebuild, most mechanics do not looks forward to rebuilding an automatic. It's 12.6 hours just to remove and rebuild the I4 auto, up to about 14.4 if they have to go a few steps furth in the rebuild.

Your tranny is most likely done. I would just get a rebuild, swap, or if possible a 5-Speed Swap.

Exactly. Why didn't you go back there? :thinking:. I agree w/ scarlet here, I FU***** hate thieves. A couple years ago, when I was about 12-13, had my CR125 stolen from a convenience store. Never recovered. I hate people sometimes.

Do a 5 speed swap, it's more cost effective and you won't have to worry about problems later on with the rebuild.
