3rd Gear issue

Under W.O.T in third 60mph-80 mph I get a sputter kind a like its misfiring lightly and only in 3rd gear to everything else is good. what do I need to do? I got alot of good info From some of the threads but still very confused on whats really the right part and part number the sensor. I have an appointment to bring it back to the dealership it was just at and that means another 120.00 diagnostics and another loan car but I cant spend that kind of money but I just spend 300.00 to get the pan replaced on top of that bills and rent is due so no way can I pay to fix it at this moment so Im kind of stuck til then.

Not sure what your question is as for the right part/part #? Are you talking about the 3rd gear solenoid?

The tranny has 3rd and 4th gear pressure switches. Very easy to replace.

took the tl in

So I went to go get the parts today but just end up dropping it off for them to look at it. They got me in a 2012 TL this time and... Its not a sh but its fast I personally would want the sh 6 speed but I would get a auto so my family can drive it. I love my acura but I would sell it to get a new one now.
