"Great car for the money I paid for"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The transmission jerks a little bit when accelerating, but there it has no problem going from 0-60 in aproximately 7-8 seconds. Althought when cold starting the car, the transmission jerks when put on drive. Like it wants to take off without pressing on the gas. The speedometer is going out too. It will mark the speed, then suddenly the needle will drop down to 0 mph. The passenger side power reclining motor went out. The A/C compressor went out as well.

General comments?

Overall the cars appearance is magnificent. I get a lot of compliments on its looks and style. It runs great and smooth. Just some routine maintenance and it will run like new.

Your transmission is going out. The transmissions for these cars are very expensive. My advice get shot of it while you can.

You can pick up a relatively cheap used transmission with low miles if ever needed. One database you can use is car-part.com.

Replace transmission fluid with Honda ATF.

It is the VSS (vehicle speed sensor) It is a lot cheaper than a tranny you don't need. I almost assure you that is the problem.It's no big deal.
