My Honda after 6 months has decided to give up on me . The automatic gearbox started to have a weird noise preceding with some low gear sleeping . Currently still running fine in high gears .
I'm thinking selling it in one piece as I don't have space for breaking it.
Has 85k +/- full MOT with no advisories.
2.0 automatic non 4WD .
Ex-owner a bodyshop owner so no heavy rust issues ...


Noise posted on YouTube
No warning lights on.
Helpful comments welcome .

Has the fluid level in the gearbox been checked?

Yes.
Is still on level even now.
Car is still running with a terrible gear friction noise ...
Guess the Lucas oil would not change the issue.

Is there any connection between fuse box inside and gearbox ?
Cause I changed some fuses and after that all this happened ...
