Help! Transmission problem after changing transmission fluid
I just changed the transmission fluid for my '97 CL at an auto mechanic on Tuesday. After that, i didn't even touch the car. But today, the transmission suddenly became quite weak. At first, I was able to change among the lower gears, but the transmission refused to change gear after a while. Every time I pushed the accelerator pedal, the tachometer went over 4K rpm without changing gear, just like the shifter was on 'neutral'. Has anyone had the same problem before? What problem is it probably? Thanks in advace.

first off what kind of engine do you have 2.x or 3.0? second, make sure u put enough in there. it sounds like thiers either too much or too little fluid. check the level with the car not running like the directions say. and make sure u used the honda atf fluid from the dealer. and not the automatic transmission fluid dextron III.
