I have a 90 Accord EX Coupe with the ATX, which has of late been giving some trouble with its transmission. The car will run fine when you first start, but if you ever slow down or stop after that first run up to speed (like a stop sign, etc) there is a chance that it will not be able to shift/stay in gear when you take back off. The car revs really high and does not go into gear, though it is not slipping because there is no forward drive at this point. I can let off the gas entirely and sometimes it will shift up, but other times it will not. At other times the car will try really hard to get into gear, but just revs really high back and forth trying to get into gear, but never quite manages it. This chance of having no gears at all seems to increase as you drive the car longer, but if you never come to a stop or slow down below 20mph, it does fine (50 miles one way at speed, no problem). Oddly enough stopping and turning the car off and then back on fixes this temporarily (if the car loses all gears and will not shift into any, you can reset it and immedately get back normal shifting for a little while). The car sets no trouble codes, the S light is not on, nor flashing, and I have reset the ECU, with no help. Fluid is fine also (not burnt, at proper levels). This started with the car just going in and out of overdrive when at speed, but has degenerated to this point over two days of driving, to the point where I know I am going to have to restart the car in traffic at least half of the time I stop at an intersection.
Does anyone have any idea what this could be?
