A super late update. 😉
The transmission replacement on my 95 honda civic was successful with the help of the Vmanual. The process was smooth overall with some pain in the rear end while removing the pin in the shiftier linkage, getting the bolt joint lose and lastly putting the transmission back up. It was a lot heavier then I could handle. I wasn’t able to do what Eric did in the video. The old transmission was pretty bad. The transmission fluid was really dirty even though is was only six months old. The speed sensor had metal shavings all over. I filled the new transmission with Honda fluids and it has been driven very nice.Just some pics form the job.
Yeah! Any suggestion on where to get a transmission? I am looking at this rebuild one. http://shop.synchrotech-transmissions.com/Honda-Civic-1992-1995-DX-LX-C9295-406.htm
Seem a little pricey to me, but much more reliable than the ones pull out from the junk yard.Yeah! Any suggestion on where to get a transmission? I am looking at this rebuild one. http://shop.synchrotech-transmissions.com/Honda-Civic-1992-1995-DX-LX-C9295-406.htm
Seem a little pricey to me, but much more reliable than the ones pull out from the junk yard.Just a quick update. Not long after the original post, I was not able to engage in 4th gear. So I just drove it without the 4th for almost 6 months. And finally today, the whole transmission is giving up. When I shifted out of the 3rd gear as I was driving down the road today, it felt like the selector left in gear or something. With the shiftier in neutral, there was a awful grinding noise. I wasn’t able to shift in to any of the gear. Luckily, with a hard push and even worse grinding sound, I got into fifth gear and somehow got the thing(maybe the selector?) back out. And this happened a few more times until I reached home….
Ready for another tranny. :woohoo:

Oh, sorry, I agree with you. I was making commons on other posts….
I checked the engine mounts, and they are good. On the shift linkage, the bushings doesn’t seem to have much play. But the U joint part on the linkage is loose and can be rotate and move forth and back a little bit. I circle the part on the diagram. So a new linkage is what I need? I also uploaded a video with the u Joint part when shifting.

Beside the noise, I’m having problem with the 4th gear. It feels softer when shifting in compare to rest of the gear. And also when shifting into 4th gear, it will pop out in to neutral when I give gas. What could that be?
I just got the GM Syncromesh fluid today. But if its something mechanically wrong inside the transmission, then I’m afraid it would be waste of money to change the fluid.Thanks Eric.

It’s also hard to shift into the fourth gear. Sometime it felt like I have shifted into 4th gear, but it will skip into neutral when I give gas while the shifter is still in 4th gear. 🙁
I will try to record it.
