Accord S O3 - Transmission Magnet help please - davesaw

Hi after a dispute, I was sent my accord 03 plate, manual gearbox back completely in bits in a box!! Managed to get it together but have a part that I am not sure goes where.Im thinking it must be a transmission Magnet as it's magnetic. But I can't find out what it is. I am a female in trouble. If anyone can help me please. I did wonder if they added it to the parts just to annoy me. Not my car I think it's a 2.2 they said something about it being a limited edition gearbox. But not sure. Cheers Sharron

Accord S O3 - Transmission Magnet help please - Peter.N.

The only place you usually find a magnet in a gear box is attached to the inside of the sump plug, its there to pick up stray bits of metal and keep them out of the oil. Have a look at the plug and see if there is a fitting to hold it.
