So are you telling me that you dont know about then cluster or what??? I feel what your saying but i dont have the money to spend on a new tranny fell me????? I spent enough just gettin it from a Major Dealer! Hondas r Hondas i love them to death but you have to see where im coming from? if i new there was a recall on that model i would have never got it but i also have had no problems from the Hondas i have had before! I hate AT's this is the first one i have ever had but my other half cant drive a stick! I would have much ratherd a 5 speed then an AT dont get it twisted. A clutch is alot easier to replace than an auto! hit me back???
Dont you think they are prepared for people that may try that same scheme. Your not the first or the last person to come up with this idea.
They obviously have your mileage on record so why try to change out the cluster? The cluster works with the ECU so if you change the cluster the mileage (correct one ) will reappear.
Call Honda Care and see what they can do. Maybe they'll cover some parts and you pay labor etc....

If i were going to buy a 98-02 Accord, I would search Consumer Guide to see if that model year was reliable....and as it turns out the Auto Transmissions on those cars are junk.....So in turn if i were still intent on buying an Accord from that year range, I would have money on hand to solve any future problems that WILL arise....Spend the 2000 or whatever amount and get it rebuilt or find a replacement tranny, and the car will last another 100k miles.....
