I just got my car back from getting the tranny rebuilt. As i was driving back home the tranny shakes every time it shifts from 1st to 2nd gear. Any suggestions on what it might be? BTW its an automatic.

 

What do you mean shaking? Jerking to 1st to 2nd gear?

 

motor mount or something not hooked up like a vac line

CALL the shop and take it back immediatly- they can send a tow if its really bad shake and you dont want to drive it

dealer swap out rebuilt,, or private shop rebuilt?
thats what warranty is for- problems

The acura units shift slightly higher rpm in 1-2 for first 2 minutes of driving (approx time) to speed the engine warming up, after that it should shift like butter

 

The whole car like vibrates for a second from first to second gear.

I got it done at a private shop ( 1 year / 12,000miles )

Where would the VAC line lead to?

 

the front and rear motor mounts on some years are vac assisited on the TL

 

vibrates may be TQ prob' Check the fluid level per book
drive 15 minutes cruise on freeway
get off freeway and park on level surface- in a safe place!
turn OFF engine and pull dipstick- wipe- insert fully- remove and read
Must be somewhere BETWEEN the upper and lower dot
anywhere in that range is ok- anywhere else is a problem to be fixed at the shop

 

U mind me asking how much u paid for the tranny?

 

^ 1600 is it a lot?

 

no good deal ^

 

Where did u get it done?
My tranny is done and the DLR wants $4100 to fix it!

 

WUSSUP BRO LONG TIME!!!!! LOL.....honestly IMO if you checked your car out and the parts seem fine, its time to change your axles, cause when the axles are know to shake, say under 60, its pretty much the axles, i had the same issue, they had people on here changing tires, rotors and everything, but its when you get on the gas from 1st to 2nd and thats when you feel the wobble/shake, time to replace your axles.........

 

i have this same problem......it stays stuck jerking at like 25-30 mph then changes gears.....its smooth tho after that...

i thought maybe its the tranny control module but the rpm doesnt jump at idle....

 

That was happening to my first tranny b4 it went , it only happened between 2500-3000 rpm's. how old is your tranny?

 

still on its first tranny......had the jet kit installed only, from the recall....and warranty expired in 07, got it feb 09...

acura said it may be the control module, but well see on wednesday when they check the car thorough.

hope its not the tranny....i aint got money to be buyin trannys left n right
