This happened in my wife's 99 Odyssey, they did not have a recall then.. we complained to Honda and they would not step up.. Now we have a 99 TL but they extended the warranty on that transmission.
Honda wanted over $3000 to replace the transmission in the Odyssey..

Actually, from my readings on Acura-cl.com and Acura-tl.com... I believe the plates inside the transmissions were made by a contracted 3rd party company. These plates end up shaving off alot of metal filing inside the transmissions, clogging all the valves.

ding, we have a winner. The valves are getting clogged. The acuras and the hondas are the same trans, go figure.
JJ, how many miles on the oddity? There was a powertrain extension on the v-6 oddites and accords and it might now be covered by warrenty if it throwing a P0740 code, TQ lock up

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

Yea no shit, the 'Maint req' light illuminated on my 20,000 mile 2002 Honda Civic today as I was driving home. Kicker is that my service isn't even due until 22,300 miles.
Manual transmission too
Any ideas?

That maint. required light on Honda's is BS! All it does it could miles and light up after so many...stick your key into the slot and reset it.
