1991 honda accord transmission

my car makes a hummmmming sound or a sound that might reflect to a wheel
bearing when in drive and it reaches about 5 mph and does not stop until
it returns under 5 mph the transmission still has a lot of torking power i
need some help on where to start on fixing the problem

 

Manual or auotomatic? That's pretty important.

 

------------------

What's the mileage, and when did you last change the tranny fluid. What
did you use?

'Curly'

 

Manual trans
don't know about the fluilds just got the car

A little history. the guy had a new trans put in before i got it. the
cylinold has gone out on the trans it won't change over to 3-drive 1 and 2
ok and R the fluids are over full on the trans.

 

Your writing is confusing.

As I understand this, you have a '91 Accord with a replacement manual
transmission. There is a humming noise that only occurs at or below 5mph.
You cannot shift into third gear, but you can shift into any of the lower
gears.

Questions:
1) Can you shift into 4th and 5th?
2) Does the noise happen if you're accelerating, decelerating, or coasting?
3) When you say "cylinold", are you referring to the MASTER or SLAVE
cylinders?
4) Has the cylinder that has "gone out" been replaced?

It is odd that you can't change into 3rd, but you can into the lower gears.
Usually it's the lower gears (especially reverse) that people have trouble
with.


At first blush, I'd say to
1) Check for loose heat shields on the exhaust, or for other loose parts
that may vibrate, and
2) change the oil for genuine Honda MTL, and see if the noise changes.

 

question 1 automatic not manual
? #2 accelerating and when i get over 5 mph
? #3 yes
? #4 no
this is a noise that sounds like a bearing that has gone bad sounds like a
wmwmwmwmwmwmwm and only does it in drive or 1 or 2 but won't go into drive

 

But two messages ago you specifically told me it was a manual:
"Manual trans
don't know about the fluilds just got the car"

You are referring to *both* the master and slave cylinders, neither of
which an automatic has? I'm even more confused now.

Does the transmission growl when you accelerate froma standstill?

Check the fluid level. Get a flush and refill with appropriate fluid. If
noise persists, go see a good garage. Strange noises in an automatic often
mean serious problems.
