Transmission is shifting jerky on low gears

12

First of all, it has been the best car I have ever owned.. 1998 3.2 TL, 98K miles.




Issue: Transmission is starting to shift really jerky on low gears...

I had never changed the transmission oil. Should I change it now? If yes, where and how?

Thank you!

at this point its throwing money away to change the fluid.
Have the trans checked and test driven by aamco and another big name shop in your town.
100k is good for any trans to last, the 98 has a 4 speed auto correct?
Those are much better than the 5 speeds made a few years later.
Ask the Acura dealer how much for an exchange rebuilt trans from them and compare it to rebuilding yours.
