A month later I contacted my dealer as I did here from them and was told Honda was still looking in to it, but my dealer asked me to leave the car over night and they would try and reproduce the sound.
The service manager told me he heard the noise and would be requesting a new auto transmission and torque converter for my Euro. Within a couple of days they received the go ahead from Honda Australia. My Euro auto transmission and torque converter was replaced and I have not heard the noise since. All this was over about 6 months going back and forth to my dealer.
I think this noise is a known Issue at Honda Australia and I would get your dealer to contact them .
Damxxx... really... Honda selling us lemon cars :(
I'm surprised they don't issue any recall.
Sambo73: How long did they take to change the tranny & torque converter? Did they provide a temporary replacement car for you?
Escape27: How about your car? Did you send to the dealership and had them changed too?
I hate going to dealership sometimes, for some reasons.
Goshh... Amazing an ancient 5 speed auto that is unchanged in the Euro since 2003 could still be problematic.
Maybe there's water in it... from the last tsunami... :confused:
I don’t think Honda selling lemon cars, I think they know of an issue but still don’t know what is causing it.Quote:

My warranty has been expired on May. Been dealer before expired warranty for replace rust sunroof and explained a noise with video clip but they said they couldn't heard noise from my car. And if I bring me car to dealer with noise they will ask replace cost. Isn't it ?
