All the answer's above sounds about right.

Honda Accord Transmission Replacement

First off if you're tackling a job like this for the first time it's best to get a good manual. I don't believe the full information can be easily found on line.

However you can search these pages, which typically have most of the information here:

Some guide line steps to swapping a transmission.

1. Make sure you disconnect the battery before starting.

2. Remove the starter motor.

3. Disconnect all electrical components that are connected to the transmission.

4. Jack up the front of car and be sure it is properly supported.

5. Remove the CV shafts. (Or at least separate them from the transmission)

6. Remove the inspection plate.

7. Remove bolts connecting the flex plate to the torque converter.

8. Place a jack under the transmission with a block of wood between the two so you don't damage the trans.

9. Remove bolts connecting tranmission to the engine.

10. Separate the trans and engine.

well, good thing is that it's a honda, so anything with the same series engine (d-series, b-series, h-series, etc....) can pretty much use the same transmission. as for how to do it yourself, the best thing would be to go and buy a haynes repair manual. those are great since they actually took the car that the book is for, and completely tore it apart and put it back together. now, doing a transmission swap take a lot of time. if it says it'll take 6-8 hours to do, you'll probably need to double it if you've never done it yourself. you'll need a lot of specialty tools too. and probably someone willing to help. transmissions aren't light! automatic transmissions are more complex, thus they weigh more than manual transmissions. you'll also need jack stands, but preferrably, you should use a lift. you'll have a lot more room and make it'll you're life much easier.

hope this helps!

You didn't indicate whether it was a manual transmission or an automatic. If it's a manual, you are experiencing clutch slippage and even though it has a hydraulically actuated clutch, it is adjustable. However, if it is slipping like you say, it'll need replacement. The car is worth investing the repairs in if its in good mechanical shape otherwise. Also, the timing belt(s) need to be renewed every 60k miles. Make sure you are keeping up with the scheduled maintenance to avoid any unneeded breakdowns. let me know if that didn't answer the question. you can email me as you need to good luck

Here's some advice...get that used one with a warranty. The gaskets that Honda installs arent meant to be removed, getting them removed can prove to be a pain from the start...the cluch assemblies are a pain because every mission opened all have different shim necessities for proper spacing issues...each clutch pack needs measured for the proper shim sizes due to wear, the valve body has super tight tolerances (something like 1/5 the thickness of a human hair or 5 microns). Fluid pump gear clearances must meet certain criteria, and the list continues... All needing usage of metric tools, fixtures, measuring devices etc...so unless you plan on going into the Honda remaning process, the cost of tools outweigh the necessity for just one trans...
