My car was a 2002 Honda Accord Coupe SE.I was driving down the road, car was driving fine. I heard a pop noise under the hood. Pulled over to the side of the road all belts were in place. When i tried to drive off my car hesitiated. I have had 3 transmissions placed in this car. The other day i notice my cooling fan wasn't working either. Took car and placed on machine it states a speed sensor. My car drives fine in D3, put not D4. Check transmission fluid was a little black with a burnt smell. Do i need to flush sysetem and change speed sensor or do i need another transmission?

If the fluid smells burnt, that means your transmission is most likely slipping which means you have do have internal damage. Those transmissions in the early 2000 generation Honda's were not that good. You might want to think about either getting an expensive rebuild done properly, or getting another vehicle.
