OK, so a while back I replaced my broke stock trans with a low mileage 2006 Odyssey trans. I also installed a B&M trans cooler at the time. It was perfectly fine for a while, but now it is making me nervous. It seems to shudder slightly on the 1-2 shift, and also seems firmer on all of the other shifts. This could just be me being paranoid, but I figured I would ask here and see what everyone thought it might be. If you need more information just ask, any help is appreciated.


Thanks,

What do you mean by "shifting firmer"?

And when was the last time you changed the fluid?

 

I mean it shifts hard.

The fluid was changed when the trans was put in a couple months ago.

How are your motor mounts? I;d try changing the fluid and see if that helps any.

 

When it is cold does it kind of slam when you put it into reverse? It might be your engine mounts

 

It could be the mounts... The front motor mount looked pretty rough when I did the trans swap, but I didn't have the extra money to replace them at the time.

Looks like that is your issue

 

Well at least I know what it is, but Im still selling the car anyway
