#848 of 1250 Goodwill Repair by bigdadi118 Oct 14, 2008 (6:19 am)
If you think the transmission should be fixed by Honda Goodwill Repair, please make sure you contact the right parties...   Out of warranty: Any repair performed after warranty expiration may be eligible for goodwill consideration by the District Parts and Service Manager or your Zone Office. You must request consideration, and get a decision, before starting work. Replies to this message: rik1 (Nov 05, 2008 10:47 am) rik1 (Nov 05, 2008 1:40 pm)
#849 of 1250 Re: My Transmission Problems - 100% covered to nothing covered. [darentx] by eaguirre0 Oct 31, 2008 (5:43 pm)
Replying to: darentx (Dec 19, 2007 3:55 pm) Hi,   Could you tell what exactly what you said to the Honda customer service hotline so that I can tell them the same thing. Please. My trans is also not working. It stopped working at about 104000 miles. Well it will still catch gear when its cold but once it warms up it loses its gears. So, will you please help me out?   Enrique Replies to this message: taggerty (Nov 03, 2008 2:49 pm)
#850 of 1250 '01 Odyssey Transmission by jean185 Nov 02, 2008 (12:11 pm)
I have a 2001 Odyssey with 53,000 miles. This week the local dealer replaced the transmission under warranty. When I got home and checked it out, I discovered it was a used transmssion and the gear shift lever is totally different and filthy. Is this supposed to be acceptable? Or, because I'm a woman, did I get taken? Replies to this message: kominsky (Nov 03, 2008 12:01 pm)

Replying to: jean185 (Nov 02, 2008 12:11 pm) The transmission probably was used, but reconditioned. I'm pretty sure that's the way they did all of the replacements. As for new shift lever, my wife had two trannies put in her '00 and both times the lever was the original, or at least the same as the original.

Replying to: eaguirre0 (Oct 31, 2008 5:43 pm) I am in the same boat. Your vehicle may be under warantee. Honda was hit with a lawsuit for odometer fraud and had to extend the warantee out to 105K. I am shipping mine back the US from the UK to have it fixed....it is cheaper to send it back on a ship than it is to have it fixed over here. I have the same exact problem as you do. I get a fault code of P0740. It drives when cold but stops working when it warms up. Good luck.

Replying to: bigdadi118 (Oct 14, 2008 6:19 am) Is Honda Goodwill Repair an actual program? My 2000 Odyssey (94,000 miles) had the CEL with the TCS light coming on when I drove over 50mph. The TCS light would go away when the engine was turned off. I had this problem earlier and had it fixed (EGR valve), so I basically let this problem go. When I brought it in for repair (Bay Ridge Honda) , I was told that I needed a new tranny. Of course, now I'm out of warranty and I'm looking at a large expense. Bay Ridge said they would call American Honda to see if anything can be done, but I want to prepare myself for the next step if I don't receive anything.   Rick Replies to this message: rik1 (Nov 05, 2008 1:40 pm)

Replying to: rik1 (Nov 05, 2008 10:47 am) Just an update on my previous update... Honda is willing to go 50/50 on the transmission, but due to additional work due bottoming out (engine mount,frame) the total I'll have to pay still comes out to 3,400. What do you think of my chances of getting Honda to pay the full 100% on the tranny? And should I hold off work until I find out or do I let them do the work and hope I'll get reimbursed?
#855 of 1250 2004 Honda Odyssey EX w/Transmission Failure by charliegreen Nov 05, 2008 (8:58 pm)
WOW! Here it goes another one! Ours is 100K miles, all scheduled maintenance done, etc., etc., etc ... and we love it (up to now!) We got the Check Engine lamp on and very sluggish running. At one point during testing as recommended by the dealer (after replacing all the ATF and before any actual work on the transmission) it could not go over a very small ramp. It got like in neutral no matter what position we had the transmission on. I called the dealer who recommended this:   1. Shut down the engine. 2. Take the ignition key out for a few seconds (I did like 20 seconds). 3. Start the engine. 4. and it worked ... the transmission was working.   I placed the transmission on 1st gear and it worked to at least move it home and later to the shop, hopefully, tomorrow.   I`ll keep you posted.
#856 of 1250 Honday Odyssey 2000 - Is my Transmission Failing by 09norcim Nov 06, 2008 (5:22 am)
We have a 2000 Odyssey with 130,000 miles. It has been services at Honda dealer (except timing chain 100K Service and 2-3 oil changes). At 100,812 miles I felt some hesitation into 2nd gear, at that time Honda Dealer rode 23 miles with laptop hooked and stated in report no DTCS stored. They told me the transmission is fine.   Now a week ago, under hard acceleration when going into second gear rpm goes from 3500 to 4500. Slow acceleration driving is fine.   What should I do? Take it to Honda dealer and see if they will share the cost if transmission is failing?   Or take to the private shop that I trust. Jasper Engines lists one for $2,711.00 http://webapp.jasperengines.com/webcat/catalog.asp.   I had a good relationship with dealer and Honda, They had replaced EGR and Catalytic Convertor with paying for material and dealer gave a goodwill on labor. I was 7,000 miles over warranty.   Recently lost my job would like to avoid a nightmare of expenses.   Thanks! Replies to this message: 09norcim (Nov 06, 2008 11:17 am)
#857 of 1250 Update By 09norcim by 09norcim Nov 06, 2008 (11:17 am)
Replying to: 09norcim (Nov 06, 2008 5:22 am) I took the van to a Jasper Engine & Transmissions installer. They rode the van found no codes or could not repeat the problem.   I think that the problem comes in the morning when transmission oil is cold.That's what they told me that the problem could be occurring at cold starts. The transmission oil was changed by Honda 13,000 miles ago. Jasper shop told me that the oil level is little high and color is darker than what is should be for a 13K mile change. He told me not the change the oil as it may accelerate the problem and the Honda oil contains a "detergent".   I do not have any malfunctioning "Check Engine or flashing D light". Jasper Transmission is $4,200.00 installed with 3 year or 100K warranty. The shop can rebuilt locally for $2,700K with 3 year or 50K warranty with labor covered if rebuilt fails. Jasper has a labor coverage plan for $150 in case of a failure. The shop owner who has been in business for 20 years told me to go with Jasper if I want to keep the van for many years (which I really want since it is extremely clean inside and outside).   Next week I have an appointment with Honda Dealer to pay him $96 for testing transmission. However I doubt if they can found any code also if nothing is flashing? I don't know if I should pay them 100 dollars for finding nothing.   There is no downshifting problem, only on occasion it takes a second to engage to get into 2nd gear with RPM jumping approx 1000 under pedal to the metal.   Last time American Honda covered me after warranty for (EGR & Catalytic convertor) when I told them in my immediate family there are 4 Odysseys and 2 Acuras. One Acura had a transmission failure under 36K miles.
