    I am considering buying a used 2004 accord ex(24k miles). It is a
    4cylinder automatic. I have heard accords have lots of tranmission
    problems. Is it only with the v6's as I believe I read once? thanks.

    Mostly the V6s. In any case, the tranny problems were fixed by the '04
    model year.

    I also kinda wonder how many of those "problems" were due to nobody knowing
    how to properly check a Honda's AT fluid level.

  3. That wasn't the case.

    If it were, then every automatic transmission Honda ever built would
    have been afflicted.

    No, the incidences of auto trans failures from 98 through 04 were
    incredibly high, much much more so than can be explained by "oh, but
    suddenly come 1998, after years of automatic transmissions, nobody can
    figure out how to check the fluid levels".

    True too. I was just wondering.
