A/T Replacement

*Follow the IN-WARRANTY EXCHANGE steps in S/B 98-061, Automatic Transmission In-Warranty Exchange Program, to order a remanufactured A/T, replace the failed A/T, and return the failed A/T core.*

NOTE:

^ When you replace the A/T on a '03 Accord V6 2-door (thru VIN 1 HGCM82..3A035060) or '03 Accord V6 4-door (thru VIN 1HGCM66..3A091630), update the PCM. Refer to S/B 03-070, PCM Update With Automatic Transmission Replacement.

^ ATF cooler cleaning is not needed; A/T failure was heat-related only.

^ Replacement A/Ts do not need an A/T Oil Jet Kit; they have been updated internally.

^ When refilling the A/T, always use with Honda
[1][2]ATF-Z1.

^ Make sure you do the idle learn procedure. Also, make sure you check the front wheel alignment, and adjust it if needed.

^ During the road test, you do not need to check the shift points with the HDS.

^ After the road test, recheck the [1][2]ATF level, add ATF if needed, and check for leaks.
