Asked by msbeezy90 Nov 13, 2015 at 06:20 PM about the 1996 Honda Accord

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

It is very hard to get the car to move from a
stop light. There are no lights showing up
on the dashboard indicating that there is
anything wrong with the car? Please help I
have a feeling it may be the motor, but not
sure!!

G answered 8 years ago

It's the transmission. The motor is revving like that because the car is still in neutral and the transmission is not working properly.

I was told that I can't check the transmission fluid in a stuck that it has to be done professionally, is that true!?

Hi, My 2005 Honda Accord has died twice in the last week for no reason. Last Monday while going to leave work it wouldn't start and I didn't leave anything on, I had a colleague jump it (battery is only 4 months old by the way) and was able to drive normally until yesterday when I got in my car and again it wouldn't start. This time I got out and while looking for a friend to jump my car I got in and for some reason it just started normally and all the electronics turned back on. I will mention I was involved in an accident 3 weeks prior (Mostly rear damage) and also had recently had a new stereo installed. 1 Answer

The compressor seals were replaced, the evaporator was cleaned, freon gas was recharged, but now the revs drop when I turn the A/C on, and the engine temperature rises a lot.
