F23B Auto Transmission Info Finding

[wildBill83]

So does anyone know anything about the tiptronic automatic transmission?

It is in the RA6 Odyssey.

I'm looking for wiring information, transmission model designation, and gearing. I'll do some research and you guys jump in with anything you got as far as info goes.

In the late 1999, a new, larger "second generation" Odyssey appeared in Japan and Australia and as a Left hand Drive (LHD) in China. However, this new Odyssey was a major upgrade of the first generation Odyssey rather than a completely new model. As a result, its overall shape and appearance were similar to the first generation Odyssey. Still, it was 85 mm (3.3 in) longer and 10 mm (0.4 in) wider than the previous model; while the saloon's length was shortened.

The base model continued to be sold with a 2.3-liter 4-cylinder engine F23A RA6(2WD) & RA7(4WD), however, the a 3.0-liter VTEC V6 engine J30A (from the first generation, producing now 210 hp (157 kW)) was available with RA8 (2WD) and RA9 (4WD). The 2000 Odyssey was the first Honda to receive a five-speed automatic transmission (with the 3.0-liter engine). All the second generation gearboxes also featured another first—a tiptronic-like manual mode, known as "Honda S-matic", in which a gearbox remains to be a classic Honda's hydro-automat, but the driver is able to manage the shifting moment (if electronically allowed) with the selector's "+" and "-" positions.

Is that not the same thing as the '97-'01 Prelude automatic and every automatic in a 4-cylinder Accord in other markets after 1997?

Like this:

Is that the M6HA? Edited my post it had bad info. I don't think that type SH transmission goes on an F block though right?

On a side note do you know if the 4wd transmission was on the 3.0 only or did it come on a F23A? Wiki seems to indicate it did, but wiki can be wrong.

That's not an SH shifter. That's the automatic shifter. The SH just looks, and is operated, like a typical manual transmission. You couldn't tell the different in the shifters with just a picture.

I wasn't aware that the V6 Odysseys came with 4WD transmissions in other markets. The F23A Odyssey is available with the 4WD transmission and is nearly identical to the 4WD transmission attached to some '98-'01 Accord SiR wagons that used the H23A VTEC.

But the shifter I posted is just a regular automatic shifter available on the automatic '97-'01 Prelude at a junkyard near you.

Ok thanks for clearing that up. I was confused and thought the SH was the tiptronic.

You wouldn't know the transmission codes for the 2wd tiptronic transmissions would you? What about the 4wd variation?

I believe 4wd is a bolt on option, would like to see someone use this in a heavily modified CB7.

I wish there was a good junkyard near me. The closest one with Hondas in the lot is 1.5 hours away.
