Prelude 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 135,765 miles
The sportshift automatic transmission M6ha in my 1999 Honda Prelude started to slip and while going down the freeway the car lost all power to the wheels and would just rev up the engine when I pressed the gas pedal down and would not move the car while in all drive gears. It cost me $2,396.75 to get my Honda Prelude's sportshift automatic transmission M6ha replaced at a transmission shop while I was out on a family vacation trip to Arizona.
