03 honda accord v6 shifting problems
Sounds like it could be the ECU (electronic control unit); easy to change. I have bought used ones a lot cheaper than new ones and work fine. Your year may be located under the glove box to the right behind panel (my older car was passenger side under the mat). They are easy to change out regardless of location.
Primary oxygen sensor
If the car is running fine, don't go chasing a yellow light with expensive repairs you don't need. Simply perform an OBDII scan of the stored fault history. Also get a print out of the existing faults, if any are present. Delete the fault history from the ECU memory, and go from there. On some vehicles the annoying yellow light comes on when you reach a preset mileage just to get you back to the dealer, for no reason. Let the ODBII scan be your guide, to avoid buying parts you don't need.
I have a 2003 Honda Accord, 2.4 DOHC - 4-cyl.
It could be the shift interlock. There is a recall on that part. Check to see if there is a punch mark over the 7th digit of the engine compartment vin. If there is, then the vehicle has already been inspected or part replaced. Call your closest honda dealer with your vin number to see if there are any open recalls. With a recall item the dealership replaces the part free of charge. I’m happy to assist further over the phone at

Low compression in cylinder 1 and burning oil
If your rings are worn or the cylinder wall is gouged, pressure will escape and oil will leak into the cylinder and get burned. Keep your eye on the oil level and you should be ok for a while. If you live in a warm climate, you might try a slightly heavier weight oil.
