What's the mileage, who told you it needs a new tranny, when was the
Honda tranny fluid last changed, do you live in a part of the world
where they use salt on the roads in winter? Has anybody put non-Honda
fluid in it, or overfilled it?

There are a few simple things that can make a tranny 'look' dead. Has a
Honda dealer spoken to you about it? Need more info.
