Hey I just recently bought a 2001 Acura Cl-S automatic transmission. I am having two weird transmission issues. Cant find anything with the search feature.

1. When put into gear, if I dont stabilize the shifter. it keeps ticking from the shift box and the D on the cluster keeps flashing. What I do for it to not do this is go down to D4 then go up to D5, or press down on it when its in D5 and move the stick a little up or down. Both methods work. I feel like its the shift lock solenoid or something like that?

2.When the car takes off and its shifting from first to second,the car rumbles like if the road got a little rough but its not the road since the car does this every time. Its very slight. No change in rpm. And third every once in a while shifts hard a little bit, not to hard, slightly. Im thinking trasmissions mounts?

car is reaching 130k miles

 

These transmissions are glass. It's tough to diagnose your problem without being there in person. I suggest two things: take a to a dealer and have them diagnose the issue.......and two......get some money together for a new transmission.
