I have a 2000 honda prelude type sh. It has been making a weird sound so i too it to the dealer. They said the auto tensioner and timing belt needs replaced. The service is not suppose to be done until 105,000 miles. The car has 77,000 miles. I ran into the same thing on my previous prelude which was a 1999 base model prelude. Honda will not issue a recall or help financially. This costs around a $1000 to fix. If the auto tensioner fails, the timing belt can break leading to a ruined engine. Everyone in the honda community knows this. Why can't honda be liable to fix a defective part that everyone has trouble with?

After eleven years of ownership and 72,000 miles, transmission experienced failure of both right and left axle seals over the course of a year, causing serious transmission leaks.both seals were replaced by the dealer.after only four months, both axle seals began seriously leaking once again.transmission also began to make whirring noises above 30 mph.dealer determined that the transmission had experienced failure of differential bearings and off-axis axles were wearing out the seals prematurely.dealer quoted $4,500 replacement of transmission as only repair option.
Hi, i have a 2000 honda prelude. It is the automatic version with the sport shifter. Recently my transmission has been acting more than usual. From when i bought my car in november of 2009 and until june 18th 2011, my transmission shifted into each gear fine, but did have some abnormal shifts on some days. From june 18th 2011 in the afternoon and until june 25th 2011, my car's transmission started to slip and shifted really harsh in every gear. The worst gear is 3rd. Third gear slips really bad and has a late delay when shifting to 4th.

Have complained to dealership several times about poor throttle response or a dead spot in the throttle of prelude during days when temperature is above 80 degrees fahrenheit. The problem appears when starting from a dead stop up through 3rd gear.problem exhibits itself as a brief interruption in power when accelerating from a dead stop. After 3rd gear problem is not apparent. Problem is amplified when air conditioner is operating. Air conditioner must be turned off when in heavy traffic conditions because rough acceleration puts undue and irregular stress on drive train.under certain traffic conditions this power interruption could be potentially dangerous.dealer fails to resolve problem each time or reports unable to duplicate problem despite the problem being reproduceable by the owner when outside air temp is above 80 degrees. Dealership is now unresponsive. Owner of 2000 honda prelude has requested the dealership to have a factory engineer investigate trouble.the request has gone unanswered. Owner of the 2000 prelude has contacted honda america to complain and problem is still unresolved at this present time.
