just purchased the car a month ago. 2000 ap1 with 67k miles. Cluch was weak and so I repalced it with oem parts from honda.

Everythime i shift from 1st to 2nd upon redline i hear an extreme grinding noise from the transmition and the shifter dosnt seem to want to go into 2nd gear. This is only when i am speed shifting from 1st to 2nd upon 9k rpm. If i take it slow and wait a moment before puting it in 2nd the car shift perfectly.

Do i need to replace transmition fluid? If so i would like to go with redline trany fluid any recomendations?

Is it my master clutch cylinder? It seems that the feel of the clutch pedal changes from moment to moment. someimtes it seems soft and other times it becomes harder and wants to stick towrds the bottom. I also lost alot of clutch fluid a few days back and had to top it back out. Its been fine ever sense.

those two are the only things i can really see that would be wrong. I have tried to give the best discription i can and hope someone can lead me to the right direction. thanks in advance.

Yours is a MY00.
Was the tranny TSB performed on it???
I use Redline MT-90,and I change it every other engine oil change;changing your cluth fluid would help also.

I am not aware of the TSB on the transimition. Can you please explain that?

how much of the mt-90 should i order?

Also what redline product should i use on the differential as it needs to be changed as well.

METATRON

Everybody I have talked to says that there is no TSB on the transmission. I have a MY00 and was wondering myself.

Emil St-Hilaire

Mt-90 for tranny= 2 quarts.
75W90 Redline gear oil for diff=1 quart.
Been using those for a long while!!!
Bring it to the dealer for the synchro TSB.

thanks alot, i will order the fluids from the marketplace asap.

About the TSB what all does it include and will it be the cause of the grinding??

whats your oppionon on the changing feel of the master clutch cylinder?

Would be a good idea,for a lot of you guys,to check the FAQ's,int UTH,when you have a few minutes,with nothing to do !!!

I just called up honda and they said all recalls that where on the vechile have been preformed and those included

Tailights, covertable top, and the seatbelt retractor.

I asked him about the tranny grinding TSB but he said that perticular recall did not include my vechile. please help

Emil St-Hilaire

Included or not,YOU have the problem.
Get to the dealer,and show the,what it does;this is not normal.
And,BTW,TSB are not RECALLS.
