Hey guys-

I have a 00 TL 3.2 (not S-type) that's been working fine for the last 4 years. The car has been acting a bit weird as of late and today it jerks when I let off the gas quite a bit. It doesn't seem to rev down when I let off the gas... say I'm going 55 and let off the gas.. usually it'd go to 1100 rpm, but it stays at like 1600. Then I put the car in park and it cycles from 900rpm to 1700rpm back to 900rpm etc for a few minutes before the cooling fans turn on, the rpm sticks at 1700 and I get a "malfunction indicator" light...

Does that match the tranny problem?

Thanks,
Chris

if ur in park and ur engine reves it doesnt sound like tranny. when my tranny went the only malfunctions of leving came between 2nd and 3rd gear

I wonder what I could be then.....

Sounds like a stuck throttle cable (the cable that runs from your gas pedal)

You might be right on that..... I'll let you know what Acura has to say.

Now I just have to find some good replacement tires (stock size).

Thanks,
