Nov 201829000 mi | A TSB was performed on my car by my dealer that was incomplete. Dealer did the software update, but did not do the three consecutive transmission fluid flushes required. During the subsequent road trip I began experiencing transmission slippage, sloppy or inconsistent gear changes, and sometimes rough, grabby upshifts at lower speeds. Acura dealer in Albuquerque correctly diagnosed the issue and performed the needed fluid flush/change at the direction of Acura tech support. Once this was performed, the problem was corrected and the transmission performed flawlessly. |

Apr 201816430 mi | Vehicle has been to the dealer 8 times since Feb/2018 to try and fix vibration issue. Vehicle has the v6 engine with the Variable Cylinder Management system. Vibration seems to start when engine goes from 6 cylinders operating to 3. Traveling ar highway speeds between 105-115km/hr it is constant and quite noticeable. The latest fix was replacing the tires as they thought they were the issue,that didn't help. Booked back into the shop July 19 and they suggested possible engine mounts, shaft or shaft bearings. It appears that this is an issue with a number of Honda vehicles with the v6 with the VCM system. | ||
