New to the forum, and have searched for hours but cant seem to find anything related to my issue.
I have a 1992 accord wagon, EX trim, and its having transmission troubles. Its an auto trans, and I don't know enough about it to know where to look next.
The issue: on cold start up, it shifts just fine into and out of any gear, and will drive for a short while (about 5 minutes) but then it acts as if it was in neutral no matter where the gear selector is. if I shut off the engine and restart it, it will continue not going into gear. If I shut it off for about an hour, It will go into gear fine for about 5 minutes again.
I have checked fuses, replaced both sets of solenoids with ones that work, replaced the TCU, and changed out the fluid. When I drained the old fluid out, It was a dark, cloudy purple color, didn't smell burnt but didn't look right either.
I have checked for any codes as well, but my D4 light doesn't stay on, and when I jumper the test connection it doesn't flash any codes. same with the CEL.
I am at a loss as to what my next move is, and any advice would be greatly appreciated. if I need to post more details or any questions, please ask.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can chime in.
