1989 Accord LXI 5th gear not engaging by broke56
Feb 10, 2009 (5:30 pm)

My 1989 Honda Accord LXI will not shift into 5th gear. I can shift into all other gears including reverse with no problems. When shifting from 4th to 5th gear there is not any resistance when going from neutral into 5th gear. I can push on the shift lever hard and there is a tiny bit of grinding but all other gears there is not a noise. It feels like the linkage for 5th gear came undone. Prior to the lost of linkage, if I came to a stop with it still in 5th gear it would be stuck and I would have to let out the clutch to disengage it from 5th gear. If some one who knows how the linkage works or can direct me to a diagram of the internals of the linkage to see how to repair the problem I would appreciate it. Going form neutral into reverse is no problem. Thank you for the help.

I seen your email, I just wanted to know if you got your problem resolved. I have a 89 honda and when I start my car it idles up to 2000 rpm after a while it goes back down. Then when I'm driving it it's ok but when I reach a stop and put on neutral it does it again. I would apreciate if you would help me with my problem.
 
Thank You, Longoria

Driver's Side Window by 87AccordS

Hi,
 
I've got a 1987 Accord S (hatchback) that some lowlife smashed out the driver's side window. I understand there are two different sizes of glass for this car - so how do I know which one it is?
 
Secondly, anybody got a spare they want to part with in Vancouver, BC? lol
 
Thanks,
Justin

If something did break, it may have allowed the axle to pull out of the tranny. If it did pull out, you would loose fluid.
