I just read through this thread. What a lot of usless garbage.
Evidently nobody though to check for known problems with this model. There
is one. It is exactly what you're experiencing.
Your dealer has a copy of TSB 04-036, which covers this problem in ALL '01
Civics. The problem is excessive wear in the 2nd clutch. The cure is to
replace the transmission with one which has an upgraded 2nd clutch
assembly.
Even if you're out of the normal warranty, this particular problem is
eligible for "goodwill" warranty coverage. The dealer must get approval
from Honda for this.
Visit your local Honda dealer. If this car still has its original tranny,
you may be in luck.

All our used cars with less than 100,000 have a limited warrenty, and it you
had bought it from us there would be scrambling to get it repaired.
Check with the dealership. Raise a fuss, perhaps the will step up..

Odd... the only thing I found on the web that actually had a definition
for this TSB (almost every hit I got described the symptoms, but not the
actual problem) suggested it was a blown hydraulic pump... which is what
I suggested in the first place.
Well either way, it's a job for a good shop or dealership... >> Stay informed about: Every Gear Acts Like Neutral |

Unless this is a situation unique to the OP's car, it is not a blown pump.
The actual TSB document may be found here:
http://search.ebscohost.com/
Login with username lib and password access
Choose Auto Repair Reference Center from menu at left.
Navigate to the OP's car.
I keep posting that link, but nobody but me ever looks stuff up there.

Or the idiots who come here, ask a question, get answered, then just
disappear, never giving any sort of followup.

It is, and they do. I just logged in. It's still working.
The auto repair reference center is on the left side of the page once

I did find another copy of the actual TSB - you were correct, it's for
the second clutch. Someone needs to make a search engine that'll
actually give me what I WANT, not what I ask for. >> Stay informed about: Every Gear Acts Like Neutral |
