These couple of weeks, I notice my car is much slower than before. When I hit it hard, it gets only louder but definitely slower. I don't see any lights up and any big noticable transmission problem(but I think it is not as smooth as before). What do you guys think? Is it just my feeling? I have CAI and didn't get the transmission replaced yet.

 

Check the actuator. Search the forum theres a tutorial on how to check it somewhere or just bring it to the dealer. I'm assuming you have a CL-S.

 

Yes, I have CL-S. and thank you. I will do a search!

 

I just did the search and found one person paying about 200 to get it fixed.
Doesn't my warranty cover it? I have 49k miles on it.

 

should be covered..if its under 4 years old...

 

Just found out it's not the actuator.
Could it be something else? Can transmission problem slow the car down?

 

Is the aculator only on CL-s or is also on CL-p?

 

, my guess would be the actuator, maybe the spark plugs are dirty, try some fi cleaner

 

Only the CL-S.

My guess is the actuator.

 

where are the spark plugs at? and how can I clean them?

 

mayb the weather? how old is ur CAI? u might need to replace filter if its old and dirty or no air flows throught it.

 

My CAI doesn't need to be cleaned yet. It's not yet an year. and yeah, I think it could be just weather. or maybe just wrong feeling? : (

 

clogged air filter. clean and oil, or replace with new filter

 

also could be throttle linkage has slipped and not operating TB properly

 

I would run, not walk to the dealer. You do not have much time left on your warranty (except for the automatic transmission) and it could be something more serious, read that costly! Better to take it in under warranty and be safe. At least they are put on notice that you have a problem.

You say "much slower", so it could be more than just a maintenance item?

 

Thanks guys, I'm going to acura dealer this week. What do I have to say when I get there? Just tell them to check my transmission? then they will just find out?

 

juss say ur cars slower then b4 and u dunno wats wrong wit it or watever else u want...either way the dealer will find out wats wrong wit it
