  1. 5th Gen
    Ok so 5th gen won’t shift when running and when it’s off it barely shifts. It’s like it’s fighting back almost you’d have to really force it. Am I looking at shift cables or maybe it’s just I need a new clutch master and slave, or is it the trans itself. I’m kinda stumped on this one cause I...
  2. 3rd Gen

  3. 5th Gen
    My poor, sweet baby started being unable to catch 2nd and 3rd while using the tiptronic shifting [referring to this as TS (at the time this started happening, didn't realise that this was likely the issue)]. Today when testing before going to my mechanic to check for error codes, leaving home...
  4. Transmission
    I have an 86 Prelude 2.0 Si whose tranny is cupoot. If there is anyone who knows where one is that can be sent to this guy here in CO, please let me know
  5. 5th Gen
    Ok so I’m pretty well sure my tiptronic trans is blown but I want some extra opinions. Current problems: -tranny is making a weird high pitch humming noise, gets higher when I rev -barely wants to be in first and or reverse let alone be in 2nd through 4th -slips out of 1st and reverse if I...

    Granted, this is a couple years old at this point (we did this back in 2016, but I haven't managed to edit any of the video until very recently), but thought y'all might like to see what we managed to do :) is the latest video. Also have a playlist: Forgive the crap audio in multiple places...
  7. 5th Gen
    Im looking to purchase a 5th gen (1999) Prelude with decently low mileage (100k) but its an auto. I know they tend to fail but all the info Ive found on the issues were about USDM cars. Does anyone know whether European models have the same issues ? I know its the same transmission but its not...
  8. 5th Gen
    Hi does anyone know what the rubber plug on the transmission is called; the one next to the “h22a” inscription and where to buy a replacement? (Took a photo as I know description is vague; check out where my finger is pointing) Thanks!
  9. 5th Gen
    So, O'Reilly's sells 3 Shift Solenoids; a proper B, a proper C, and a cheap B that says it's a replacement for A but has the OE reference of B and definitely isn't A. So, besides the connectors being designed in a way that prevents mismatching the connectors, is there any difference between the...

    I own an automatic 2001 Prelude and the car recently got a check engine light with a blinking d4 on the dash. I got the codes P0700 and P0780. The car on cold starts flutters up and down on rpm while on Neutral. The car reaches 3,000 rpm in seconds of barely pushing the gas pedal, while on D4...

    Let me start this off with THE MOTOR SOUNDS FINE I’m hitting VTEC all 9 yards my tachometer needle is just all over the damn place while driving I can’t post a video here otherwise I would. But it’ll go up normally bounce up from 3000 to 4000 then shoot back to 3500 then bounce up to 4500 No CEL...

    Success stories and failure stories are welcome. As I am trying to gauge whether or not the master rebuild kit for a little bit of money is a logical purchase compared to the full replacement of a refurb cost. I have the tools, the time, and the mechanical prowess. So, those are factors that...
  13. 3rd Gen
    The guy I bought my 89 Prelude from swapped in a B20A5 and did a pretty god job. However it's missing the mount bolts for the transmission, and I can't find anything about them online. The transmission is a 5 speed manual, If anyone knows where I can get them or the dimensions and threading that...

  15. Wanted
    Need an replacement oil pressure sensor for my 5th gen. Would prefer just the sensor, but could be willing to buy a whole new ATTS unit.
  16. 5th Gen
    Hello! I have a 1999 Honda Prelude base model with the 2.2 liter H22 a4. I have the automatic transmission. I would very much like to put a turbo in my car, but I need to know how much torque the stock transmission* can handle if it’s built. I already know there’s more to it than that, I just...
  17. 5th Gen
    Hi, I just bought a cheap 1999 Honda Prelude Auto. The car was cheap because the previous owner apparently had too many cars and was having financial issues so didn't re-register it in January. I did some research before purchase so I am aware of the major issues that the 5th gen lude auto has...
  18. 5th Gen
    Hello, I'm rebuilding my 1999 Honda Prelude Type SH and live outside Philadelphia. I will be starting with the transmission and clutch and will then focus on the engine and finally the bodywork. I was wondering if anyone is from the tri-state area and had any good recommendations for where...
  19. 3rd Gen
    Can I swap D2A4 trans with D2M4 I have a 1990 2.0 S with a B20A3 engine. The D2A4 needs to be replaced and the local junkyard has a D2M4 in an 89 2.0 S. I'm pretty sure the 89 with D2M4 also has a B20A3 engine. Would I be able to directly swap in the D2M4, or would I need anything else?
  20. 3rd Gen
    Hello! I have a 1990 2.0 S with a B20A3 engine and D2A4 manual transmission. Since I bought it, third gear grinds when I try to engage it. Should I try to find another transmission, or can I replace just third and all the bearings/seals and what not? I assume any transmission I can find at a...
