hey guys,
i have a little problem with my beater...i hope nobody cares im posting this on an f-body website but everyone here is good at diagnosing problems maybe i can get some good advice..
i have a 96 civic as a beater and its been slipping out of 2nd gear lately....ive asked around and some people say im going to have to rebuild the transmission...other people say its the synchros, and ive read a few people have had this problem and switched their transmission fluid to synthetic and its never happened again...i dont know.
but it slips mainly when i gun it from first to second...sometimes it slips when im just cruising...but other times shifting is perfectly fine, i could swear when i go uphill it happens more often, not sure if that would play a factor in anything. any advice or possible suggestions would be greatly appreciated...thanks guys
