I have a 2003 Honda V-6 Accord with automatic transmission .?

Question

I have 114k on it now and haven't changed the fluid since 30k. The transmission now slips and shifts on it's own. I only have driven it for 15 miles since this problem arose. Any ideas such as if an ATF change might remedy this problem. It seems fine when I first drive it for the first 4 miles, then acts up?

Answer 1

Change the transmission oil.

It should have been changed long ago.

Answer 2

You will have to have it checked out by a mechanic.  The fluid may be leaking out and some seals may be needed which can be fixed.  2003 Honda Accord "Great Car"...  

Answer 3

I reccommend taking it to a dealer or mechanic to see if you need a new transmission.  Honda doesnt have the best reputations when it comes to transmissions.  That is Honda's main problem - it has been unsolved for thirty years.
