you should do a write up on how you did your swap, parts you used, cost and things of that nature, i love the look of those 6th gen accords, but they have absolutely horrible automatic trannys, plus i dont like automatic transmissions,


its just a matter of time before i do this to an accord or one of those luxury tl or rl

good luck
it can still make noise even when the car has been started. couldn't hurt to check it out and see if that is the problem with the noise.

im not an expert by any means but what about the idel control valve? it wouldnt be likely that it would be giving you problems right after you did the problem but who knows. lol.
