7th gen accord v6 (need advice)
Anyone with 7th gen accords know how much it costs to swap 6 speed in or what I need to do? I think my auto tranny is starting to slip when it changes gears. sometimes it revs high for a while when i accelerate before changing to the next gear or if i am driving on a flat road the rev will stay at 4k for a while and then go back down to 1.5-2k. what should i do?

it's actually a easy swap, as long as you have a donor
7th gen accord v6 6-mt (rare)
tl-s 6-speed (rare)
the tl-s will not be a stright swap you need new mounts, the 7th gen accord would be much easier swap tranny, pedels, cluster, ecu.
thing is tho, altho it might be quite easy 6 speed accords are RARE as f**k

i would probably try to do a transmission flush first. Thankfully honda's are simple and its drain and fill. Perhaps your fluid level is low? transmissions can act funky with not proper fluid level. Another thing is to check to see if theres anyway to update/reprogram the computer for the transmission. Best of Luck.

do a flush and use oem honda fluid
after if you want to do a swap go to junk yards and try to find a tl-s cl-s and then call one of our sponsors ie. speed syndicate and see how much they can do the swap for you
imo your better off getting your tranny rebuilt it'll be a lot less
