Hello everybody, its me again, i have posted before
with regards to my 92 accord. I have the d4 light problem
that when it lights up constantly my transmission gets
stuck in 2nd gear. I realized yestarday that this was
happening, everytime i start the car, about 1 minute after
ignition, then it would last a couple of minutes
till car warmed up, then d4 light would go back to normal
an so does gear shifting on my auto tranny. I recently
changed my tranny fluid to dexroon 3, and the problem
did occur before i changed my fluid. When i changed my fluid I realized the my old fluid was dark dark brown. Could this problem be maybe that my tranny has
alot of gunk around it and when the fluid warms up
i heard it works better, so it then goes back to normal?

The dark brown maybe clutch debris. Clutch slipping or has someone been
driving with a TCU malfunctions code. Hint: A normal tranny shifts from 1st,
2nd, third, fourth, then lock-up.
