Project Mommobile: Transmission Inspection

By Brian Gillespie

While we had the K24 out of Project Mommobile we inspected the TSX transmission. Since we didn’t know how the car was driven before we found it in a salvage yard, it would have totally sucked to install it and then find out there was a problem. On more than one occasion we’ve found a broken gear teeth because the car was in gear when the crash occurred. Besides possible broken parts and worn synchros, these manual transmissions also have a problem that is unique to the TSX. Vigorous driving will stretch the magnesium cases causing problems with the bearing seats.

 

 

Follow along as Carter and ace Honda mechanic Doug Ruthroff get deep into this tranny. Despite our poor phrasing you’ll find a butt-load of good information in this video if you’re interested in checking out a tranny of your own in the privacy of your own garage.

Nothing but Hondas. That’s exactly what you’ll find at VTEC Academy. Not because some of the other automakers’ cars that inherently drain the life out of the driving experience bore us, but because Soichiro Honda’s passion for motorsports and his company’s ability to express that in the machines they produce make a whole lot of sense.

VTEC Academy is a place for Honda fans who feel the same way and who seek the most accurate technical information and commentary to continue that very legacy and make whatever Honda it is that they drive just a little bit better. And faster.

The editors and contributors of VTEC Academy are some of the industry’s most experienced and trusted, which means the informative, unique perspectives you need are all right here. And, like you, we’re also obsessed with Hondas.
