'98 Accord auto trans trouble
 

My son just called from two hours south of here reporting that the auto
trans in his '98 Accord is "burned up" and needs replaced or repaired.
It's a 2.3 four cyl with 102,000 miles on it. He bought the car at a
Honda dealer just over three years ago. The car was one of the Honda
Certified ones.
They are saying replacement with one from a salvage yard will be $2500.
I think it's a little steep. I told him to call some of the independent
shops and get a price from them.
Anyone out there been down this road before? bob
