    My wife's civic is having trouble starting in 1st. Here is a timeline
    of what happenned to the car:

    1. Front axles replaced (6 monthes ago)
    2. Noticed tranny leak, replaced pass side axle seal. During leak ,
    used some dexron iii to keep tranny from becoming dry. Drained and
    used Honda fluid when seal was replaced.
    3. Tranny now slips in 1st gear (about 2 weeks after seal
    replacement)
    4. Car will start off in 2nd if selector is moved to 2. Will slip if
    you start in d3 or d4.

    I had the codes read and it is coming up with 0715 code. Everything
    obvious has been checked (sensors, fluid level etc). If anyone has had
    the same experience, let me know what you found. I'm afraid the tranny
    is shot, but any helpful inout is appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Todd
