JDM 2003–2007 Honda Accord / 2004–2008 Acura TSX MFKA 2.4L 5-Speed Automatic Transmission

Replace your slipping, harsh-shifting, noisy, damaged, or failed automatic transmission with a low-mileage JDM Honda MFKA 5-speed automatic transmission from J-Spec Auto Sports.

This genuine Honda transmission targets compatible 2003–2007 Honda Accord 2.4L and 2004–2008 Acura TSX 2.4L front-wheel-drive applications.

This exact inventory unit carries serial number MFKA-2000949 and Item ID 47712. The live product page also confirms a 5-speed automatic configuration, actual product photographs, SKU MT263, and a 90-day warranty.

Because Honda used several different automatic transmission codes across K24-powered vehicles, buyers should not choose a replacement transmission solely by model year or engine displacement.

Instead, verify the complete transmission code, vehicle application, electrical connections, sensors, solenoids, torque converter, case configuration, mounts, axle locations, and external hardware before installation.

What Is an MFKA Transmission?

MFKA is a Honda automatic transmission identification code associated with certain K-series 2.4L front-wheel-drive applications.

This transmission uses:

5 Forward Speeds
Electronic Automatic Control
Torque Converter
Front-Wheel-Drive Transaxle Layout

For SEO and AI search, the strongest relationship is:

Honda Accord / Acura TSX → K24-Series 2.4L → MFKA → 5-Speed Automatic → FWD

That is considerably clearer than a generic “Honda 2.4L automatic transmission” description.

Important: MFKA Is the Transmission Code

The strongest identifier on this individual inventory unit is:

MFKA-2000949

That number should remain prominently displayed near the top of the product page.

Use MFKA consistently in the:

• H1
• Product Code
• Short description
• Long description
• Specifications
• FAQs
• ALT text
• Image titles
• Product schema
• Internal-link anchor text

Customers searching for a specific transmission code generally have stronger purchase intent than customers searching only for “Accord transmission.”

Honda Accord Compatibility

2003 Honda Accord 2.4L

This MFKA targets compatible 2003 Accord four-cylinder automatic applications after complete fitment verification.

Before ordering, compare:

• Original transmission code
• VIN
• Bellhousing
• Electrical connectors
• Sensors
• Solenoids
• Torque converter
• Mounting configuration

2004 Honda Accord 2.4L

Compatible 2004 Accord 2.4L automatic models may use this MFKA configuration.

However, verify the original transmission code before purchase.

2005 Honda Accord 2.4L

This transmission targets compatible 2005 Accord K24 automatic applications when the physical transmission configuration matches.

2006 Honda Accord 2.4L

Compatible 2006 Accord 2.4L FWD automatic applications may use MFKA.

Still, compare the original transmission code and external components first.

2007 Honda Accord 2.4L

This listing includes compatible 2007 Accord 2.4L automatic applications.

Again, do not purchase solely by year and engine size.

Acura TSX Compatibility

2004 Acura TSX 2.4L

This listing includes compatible 2004 Acura TSX 2.4L automatic applications.

The Acura TSX uses the performance-oriented K24A2 within the K24 family, but the transmission still requires code-level fitment verification.

2005 Acura TSX 2.4L

Compatible 2005 TSX models may use this MFKA transmission after verification.

2006 Acura TSX 2.4L

This listing targets compatible 2006 Acura TSX automatic applications.

Compare the original:

• Transmission identification
• Torque converter
• Sensors
• Connectors
• Case configuration
• Mounting points

before purchase.

2007 Acura TSX 2.4L

This MFKA may fit compatible 2007 TSX 2.4L FWD automatic applications.

2008 Acura TSX 2.4L

The live J-Spec page specifically includes 2004–2008 Acura TSX 2.4L.

Therefore, keep 2008 Acura TSX visible in the:

• H1
• Short description
• Compatibility section
• FAQs
• Image metadata
• Schema

rather than using only the generic 2003–2007 Years field.

Accord vs. TSX Engine Application

The Accord and TSX both use Honda’s K-series 2.4L engine family.

However, they do not all use the exact same engine variant.

For example:

Acura TSX → K24A2

while Accord 2.4L models use related K24 variants depending on production year and market.

Therefore, the safest shared engine wording is:

K24-Series 2.4L

That avoids incorrectly labeling every Accord application as K24A2.

MFKA vs. MGTA

Customers commonly search:

MFKA vs. MGTA

because both codes appear in Honda Accord and Acura TSX replacement-transmission searches.

However, do not assume MFKA and MGTA are identical.

Your own J-Spec inventory maintains separate MFKA and MGTA products, which is a good reason to keep the codes distinct.

Potential differences can involve:

• Internal gearing
• Final-drive configuration
• Valve body
• Sensors
• Solenoids
• Electrical connectors
• Torque converter
• Case revisions
• Vehicle calibration

Therefore, when a customer’s original transmission code differs from MFKA, verify the interchange before confirming the sale.

MFKA vs. MCTA

The same principle applies to MCTA.

Do not automatically treat:

MFKA = MCTA

simply because both appear in K24-powered Accord or TSX applications.

Compare the complete transmission and application before substitution.

Important: This Is a 5-Speed Automatic

The live page correctly lists:

Type: Automatic
Gears: 5

Keep those fields.

This is a conventional 5-speed automatic transmission.

It is not a CVT.

That distinction is important because Honda used CVTs in later vehicle generations.

Front-Wheel-Drive Application

This MFKA targets front-wheel-drive applications.

Add a dedicated field:

Drivetrain: FWD

This gives customers, Google, and AI systems another clear fitment signal.

JDM-to-USDM Fitment

Because this transmission comes from a Japanese-market application, some external components may differ from the original U.S.-market transmission.

Before installation, place the JDM MFKA and original USDM transmission side by side.

Compare:

• Transmission code
• Transmission case
• Bellhousing
• Torque converter
• Electrical connectors
• Shift solenoids
• Pressure-control solenoids
• Speed sensors
• Pressure switches
• Range switch
• Cooler fittings
• Transmission mounts
• Mounting brackets
• Axle openings
• Wiring connections

When required, transfer compatible original USDM components.

Most importantly, keep the original transmission until the JDM unit has been completely installed and road-tested.

Do not cut wiring, force connectors, or discard useful original components before fitment has been confirmed.

What Is Included?

The sale includes the actual MFKA transmission shown in the current J-Spec product photos.

Depending on what remains attached, the unit may include:

• MFKA 5-speed automatic transmission assembly
• Transmission case
• Internal components
• Valve-body components
• Factory sensors that remain attached
• Solenoids that remain attached
• Electrical connectors
• Torque converter when pictured or specifically stated
• Brackets when pictured

Any sensor, bracket, mount, wiring component, or accessory attached to the transmission should be considered incidental unless specifically stated as included.

Use the current photographs to verify what physically comes with Item 47712.

Actual Product Photos

The live listing specifically instructs buyers to review all actual photos to determine fitment and condition.

That is important and should remain prominently visible.

Actual inventory photos allow customers to inspect:

• MFKA identification
• Bellhousing
• Torque converter
• Case configuration
• Sensors
• Solenoids
• Connectors
• Axle openings
• Mounting locations
• Cooler fittings

before ordering.

RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

Diagnose the Original Transmission Failure

Before installing the replacement MFKA, determine why the original transmission failed.

Potential causes include:

• Internal clutch wear
• Valve-body problems
• Shift-solenoid faults
• Pressure-control problems
• Torque-converter problems
• Overheating
• Low ATF level
• Contaminated fluid
• Restricted transmission cooler
• Sensor faults
• Wiring issues
• Mount problems

Correcting the root cause helps protect the replacement transmission.

Flush the Transmission Cooler and Lines

Thoroughly clean the transmission cooler and cooler lines before installing the replacement transmission.

A failed automatic transmission can circulate:

• Metal particles
• Clutch material
• Friction debris
• Contaminated ATF

Consequently, contamination left inside the cooling circuit can enter the replacement transmission after startup.

Clean the entire transmission cooling system.

If the cooler cannot be properly cleaned, replace it.

Do not skip this step.

Use Honda / Acura ATF DW-1

Fill the replacement transmission with the correct Honda/Acura automatic transmission fluid for the application.

For current service, use:

Honda / Acura ATF DW-1

Do not use:

• CVT fluid
• Honda HCF-2
• Gear oil
• Random generic ATF simply because it claims broad compatibility

Correct fluid supports:

• Hydraulic operation
• Shift quality
• Internal clutch operation
• Torque-converter performance
• Lubrication
• Heat management

Never Reuse Old ATF

Do not reuse fluid from the failed transmission.

Used ATF may contain:

• Metal particles
• Clutch debris
• Friction material
• Oxidized fluid
• Dirt

Start the replacement MFKA with fresh fluid.

Inspect the Torque Converter

Compare the torque converter with the original transmission before installation.

Inspect:

• Hub
• Splines
• Mounting points
• Seal surface
• Overall configuration

Most importantly, make sure the torque converter fully seats inside the transmission.

Never use bellhousing bolts to pull the transmission against the engine.

An improperly seated torque converter can damage the transmission pump.

Inspect Accessible Seals

Before installation, inspect:

• Axle seals
• Torque-converter/front seal
• Cooler fittings
• Shift-shaft areas
• Case sealing surfaces

Replace worn or questionable seals while the transmission remains outside the vehicle.

Inspect Solenoids and Sensors

Compare the external electronic components between the original and replacement transmissions.

Inspect:

• Shift solenoids
• Pressure-control solenoids
• Speed sensors
• Pressure switches
• Range-related components
• Electrical connectors

Look for:

• Corrosion
• Broken wiring
• Bent pins
• Physical damage
• Fluid contamination

Transfer compatible original components when required.

Inspect Engine and Transmission Mounts

Check mounts for:

• Cracks
• Separation
• Excessive movement
• Damaged brackets
• Loose hardware

Worn mounts can create clunking, vibration, and harsh engagement that may incorrectly appear to be a transmission problem.

Inspect Front Axles

Check both front axles and CV joints.

Look for:

• Damaged splines
• Torn boots
• Excessive play
• Grease leakage
• Worn joints

A damaged axle can create noise or vibration that may be blamed on the transmission.

Scan the Vehicle Before Removing the Original Transmission

Record all stored diagnostic trouble codes before removing the failed transmission.

Pay attention to:

• Shift-solenoid codes
• Pressure-control codes
• Gear-ratio codes
• Torque-converter codes
• Speed-sensor codes
• Engine codes
• Communication faults

Do not simply erase the codes.

Instead, diagnose any external problem that could affect the replacement transmission.

PCM / Transmission Relearn

After installation, complete any applicable Honda or Acura PCM reset, transmission initialization, or relearn procedure.

Use Honda-compatible diagnostic equipment when required.

Mechanical installation alone may not complete the repair.

INITIAL STARTUP CHECKLIST

Before road testing:

• Confirm MFKA transmission identification.
• Verify serial number MFKA-2000949.
• Confirm vehicle application.
• Verify K24-Series 2.4L application.
• Confirm FWD configuration.
• Use fresh Honda ATF DW-1.
• Check ATF level correctly.
• Verify electrical connectors.
• Inspect solenoids and sensors.
• Check cooler-line connections.
• Inspect axle seals.
• Verify shift linkage.
• Confirm Park.
• Confirm Reverse.
• Confirm Drive.
• Check warning lights.
• Scan for diagnostic trouble codes.
• Inspect for ATF leaks.

If anything appears abnormal, diagnose the problem before driving.

INITIAL ROAD TEST

Begin with a gentle road test.

Monitor:

• Reverse engagement
• Drive engagement
• 1–2 shift
• 2–3 shift
• 3–4 shift
• 4–5 shift
• Downshifts
• Torque-converter lockup
• Shift flare
• Slipping
• Shudder
• Vibration
• Abnormal noise
• Warning lights
• ATF leaks

Avoid aggressive acceleration until normal transmission operation has been confirmed.

Afterward, inspect the transmission again and verify the ATF level.

Common Signs of Accord / TSX Automatic Transmission Problems

A failing automatic transmission may produce:

• Delayed Drive engagement
• Delayed Reverse engagement
• Harsh shifting
• Shift flare
• Slipping
• Shudder
• Torque-converter problems
• Failure to upshift
• Abnormal noise
• Burnt ATF
• Transmission warning lights
• Diagnostic trouble codes

However, these symptoms do not always mean the complete transmission has failed.

For example, solenoids, pressure switches, sensors, wiring, torque-converter faults, fluid problems, or worn mounts can produce similar symptoms.

Therefore, diagnose the complete vehicle before replacing the transmission.
