Continental Acura took a look at the transmission, turns out it's the temp. monitor. There going to replace it next week, but said the tranny should give me no problems. What a relief.

 

You will be next.

I am experience.

 

Dodged the bullet. It was only the temp. sensor. Tranny has been fine. 33,000+ miles and still loving the car.

 

The temp sensor is something that you should watch..the fluid really just gets too hot. Good luck with the fix.

 

I thought there was a posting from someone else that had a problem with a connector coming loose on their tranny...

Tried to find the info, but....

 

I bought mine from Harvey Suga (TL-S) at Continental .. I think Ken Marcus is the manager there .. I had my tranny replaced after only 13K miles...

Best of luck to ya ... what a piece of crap car this has turned out to be!

 

My Dad's '91 legend with 140k+ miles experienced the same thing.
Connector problem with the sensor. D4 flashing (4-speed).
Tranny Downshifts on its own while coasting at 30mph once.

Replaced sensor and no problems. Regular fluids and filters replacement.
