I have a 92 accord lx and I took a road trip yesterday approx. 600 miles. Everything was cool until the end. I notice a felling from the car like the brakes were bad when coming to a stop. I wish that's where it stopped but when I tried to put it in park, the shift felt like it got jammed between park and reverse. I hurried home and when I tried to park the car it start "bucking" when placed in reverse. I let it stand over nite and it was still hard to get it out of park but it drove nice until I tried to park again. Does any of this sound familiar to anyone? I hope this isn't something major with the tranny......

Has your idle RPM changed at all? Does it sound like it's going to die when you put into reverse?

The RPM hasn't changed but it does sound like it's going to die. But the idle is steady.

it's more like 800 rpm, but the tranny guy told me I would need to think about a rebuild. He claims he added some additive to my tranny and to give it a couple of days and see what happens. If it dosen't help then I have to think about doing the rebuild before I lost reverse all together. Sounded OK until he started talking about $1800. Anyone know where I can get a decent tranny for a better price than that? Just in case...
