Shifting rough especially from 1st to 2nd.
Dealer replaced trans and solenoid to no avail. Maybe just the way 1997 CLs shift.
Anyone help me?

 

Whitz, sounds like the dealer is doing the right thing. Stay on the dealer until it's fixed though!!
I'm moving your topic to the 1st generation forum so that those guys can chime in.

i have the same thing, my tranny was replaced but it still didn't solve it. I suggest maybe changing your ATF to an aftermarket fluid.

Well, if it's a '97 2.2 CL, then there is no fix, but if it's a '97 3.0CL, then there is a kit that you need to have the dealer apply. I believe it replaces part of the shift computer to adjust the shift from 1 to 2. In any event, there is an official Acura notice on it from corp to the dealers... Your dealer should be able to take care of this, and there should be no charge.
