any one can fix following problems?

1. the flashing D4 light. some time even no lights.

2. one side of my headlight isn't shooting out enough angle. it's like few degree lower than the other one.

3. everytime I turn on code AC the water leaks in near the driver's and passanger's leg. seems like leaking out of the fan

4. first gear doesn't engage! I can't do gear brake with first gear. though I can run with first gear (I have automatic 95 prelude si)

any help would help thanks.

ok, the 1st problem u should fix is #3!!!!!
The air condensor is clogged and after a while. enough water will save up in there and flow over into the Fan motor, which is a ***** to replace. All you need to do, is pop the hood, and on the left side of the engine bay in the firewall, u will see a rubber pipe near the bottome pointing down, pop that out, and then get a hanger and gently work it into the hole. You will know its fixed when all the water starts draining. I hope that helps, if u have any question about it since i dunno if thats clear just hit me up on AIM Whitea207/
Later and good luck.

you are driving a car with an automatic tranny.. why would you even try to engine brake you're jsut going to cause damage to the transmission.

as for the headlight problem.. just re-aim the lights...

You have a f-ed up tranny coming along it seems or a faulty D4 light.

I think that "engine brake" idea is not very wise. Perhaps why you're tranny is about to go bad. I wouldn't know since I don't drive your car, but definitely lay off on that engine braking. Cool.

if the d4 light blincks then get the trans code by jumping the service connector.. that'll tell you what's wrong... then you can use the search button in order to find out how to fix whats wrong

and about that engine breaking.. yeah.. it's wonderful.. since the worst enemy of trans fluid is temperature.. it's great when you raise it to over 400 degrees when it's supposed to run at around 190.. can we say fluid break down .. i'm being sarcastic if you didn't know...


i re-read your trans problem and i might be having the same thing.. it may be the b-solenoid on the trans.. but check teh code to make sure.. if it's 8 blinks .. then you got a solenoid problem
