Here's a look inside a V6 Honda automatic transmission and how it works!

In the late 90's to mid 2000's Honda experienced a high failure rate in their automatic transmissions paired with V6 models. This was due to insufficient cooling and poor filtration, causing the temperature of the fluid to increase and burn the clutches.

Honda transmissions are like manual transmissions inside, with an input shaft, countershaft and secondary shaft. Instead of using forks, they use clutches to lock the free spinning gear to the respective shaft. Torque is then transferred back to the countershaft which in turn drives the final drive at the differential.

In this video, a failed transmission from a 2006 Acura TL is torn down for analysis. The car had 200,000km and exhibited no movement when placed into gear. The second gear clutch was found burned out.
