Default Having problems with my trannie

Hey everyone, I wanted some input. I have a 2000 that I have had for 4 months. A couple months ago I noticed that I was having problems with 3rd gear, it would grind alot. I took it to the dealer, Ed Morse Honda, and they checked it out and they said there was no problem with it. I told them about TSB 055, they said that it didn't apply to my vin. Two weeks later, I was driving and I noticed my gears were staring to feel kinda sticky. The didn't want to go in properly. Then after a while, it wouldn't go into 6th at all. I decided to take it to the dealer. This time Braman in Lake Worth. They ended up replacing the synchros in 2nd, 3rd, and 6th. No I feel like the gears are sticking again. I get grinding in fourth even with the clutch all the way down. Please advise what I should do now, do you think I should take it to Rick Case Honda this time?

You may want to try and post in the "under the hood" section.
As for dealerships, you may want to try the new Rick Case Honda in Davie ... I have heard several good things about this dealership.

You need all the TSB Updates performed on your car. Take it to Rick Case and ask to speak to Doug Foss.

haha, but reality is, Jackie can probably out drive everyone of us
on this FLORIDA forum, basically she has the ability to do 140mph on 595 weaving in and out of traffic racing R1's all the way to 75 South, then dusting away a white prelude, nissan 240sx, a turbo'd 1.8t spiking 18 pounds and peaking 21.

Go to Eaither;

Rick Case Honda and tell Doug Foss (Jonathan Rahill) sent you.

Sherwood Honda and tell Dylan I sent you.

Customer service in both service depts are exceptional!!!

Jon

Sorry, IMO, driving like that doesn't equal skill or being "cool" in my book... It's just an accident waiting to happen.

I would highly advise against Sherwood. The service manager is a dick head if its the same guy as before.

Rick Case/Doug Foss is the way to go.
