1999 Honda Accord 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 85,000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
I OWN A 1999 HONDA ACCORD. IT WAS A SALVAGE VEHICLE. IT HAD SUSTAINED A FRONT END COLLISION. BODY WORK WAS RELATIVELY MINOR. ALL IS GOOD WITH THE VEHICLE WITH ONE MAJOR EXCEPTION. THE CAR GOES THROUGH 2 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 500 MILES! NO BURNING, NO LEAKING. THE TRANSMITION FLUID LEVEL IS ALWAYS TOO HIGH AND HAS TO BE DRAINED PERIODICALY. IS IT POSSIBLE THAT ENGINE OIL IS PUMPING INTO THE TRANSMITION?

Hi SanCarlos125,

There is no link for engine oil to get to the transmission. I am puzzeled how trans fluid can increase. What is the color of the fluid?

With the number of years on the engine, the valve seals should be bad causing the high oil consumption.
