Hi I'm new to acurazine and I brought my car almost 2 months ago and the has a late shift in 2 and 3 and when I let off the gas before it gets to shift and I give it gas again the car jumps into gear hard is that the cause of the tranny going bad or the pcm the car has 241818 miles on it original tranny no lights on dash or codes I need some help to figure out if I need to buy a new tranny

 

Welcome Sherwin22.

First of what year exactly is your TL, There was no Type S in that model year.
Best thing to do is check the fluid level while the engine is off and warm on a level surface and also have the front engine mount checked out.

If that checks out ok then start looking into the 2006-07 Accord V6 transmission (AV6) its the proven alternative for these cars. Do Not rebuild it avoid headaches.

 

It's a 2001 and I've done all of those things and they check out fine and I heard that the 06 07 might fit but I've also heard that only the 2001 acura tl'S fit my year

 

It will fit a lot of members have done it, Check your local salvage yards for pricing.
If its an 01 then its not Type S, even if it has the Type S badge on the trunk.

 

Only years of the 2G TL-S are 2002 and 2003..


If its a 2001 you have a TL-p unless you swapped the Engine and Still isn't a real TL-S.
The AV6 Trans will fit nicely on your TL-p you just gotta delete the P/S Speed Sensor.

On these transmission swapps to Av6. Would the transmission be manual or automatic? I usually see manual.

 

Thanks for the help I appreciate it

 

The AV6 Swap is the Automatic only! Manual Accords don't have a Limited Slip Differential they have fully open Differentials which are prone to make un-even power delivery...
The only Manual Transmission you want is from the CL Type-S 6 Speed Manual which comes with an LSD!.. An Accord Manual doesn't even compare in Performance.


So! In short: If it isn't from a CL-S 6 Speed Manual? Stick with Automatic!.
