If changing the fluid (try Mobil 1 Multi-Vehicle Synthetic ATF) does not solve the problem, you should take it to Honda for servicing. Changing the fluid may clean the solenoids and valve body and allow it to shift properly. In turn, this will help re-establish proper hydraulic pressures. Change ATF every 30,000 miles.
