Clunk into reverse!!!
Can someone help me understand this? My transmission literally jolts into reverse sometimes. Especially when it's freshly started, has moved in a forward gear and then is switched into reverse. I know in my Legend this was symptomatic of a transmission mount failure. Is it safe to guess the same is true of the CL? I know I've had at least one or two engine mounts replaced. Thanks guys...

Whats up with RDX owners?

It could be indicative of your mounts going out. Check the front and rear mounts. When it's cold the revs are higher, so some movement is expected when put into gear.

When was the last time you changed your trans fluid? Did you use Honda ATF?
A fresh fluid install has resolved the clunking for a lot of people.
Obviously check the mounts as well.

Thanks for the replies guys! Fluid was replaced almost 27,500 miles ago by Acura. Gonna have the mounts checked at the next oil change. It's kinda embarrassing when the car bangs into reverse sometimes...
