I have an automatic transmission 1993 Civic that now has transmission problems.
I made a habit of LOW SPEED engine on coasting in neutral.

At anything below 45 mph the engine would always have to rev high to match the transmission.
Above 45 mph, the transmission and engine matched seamlessly .

The transmission now works fine until around 14 miles when it warms up. Then the speedometer stops working as well as the odometer. The car won't shift into high gear and the mileage drops to mid twenties versus mid forties.

When using a grille block the transmission warms much faster .

Not sure if I just have s bad transmission or if there is a connection.
