D5 dim to bright...is this normal?

Hello All

My D5 lights dims when it brake or when its complete stop at the light, turns bright after accelerate to 30mph or faster, is this normal? I called acura service they said this is not about my transmission. Is has something to do with speed sensor? Need an expert advice please.

How are all others lights doing ? If they all dims a bit too .... you might have a low charge
battery or your alternator is going out .

I think I may have a similar problem but I haven't noticed anything with it lately. Before I had my transmission light, I saw the light on my d5 flickering somewhat but not actual blinking.

let me take that back, switched to D4 and it does the same, perhaps like someone says it might be the battery issue since i am still using the stock battery with only 30k miles on it.

Is this really a battery issue? I just noticed once again today that no matter if I'm in d4 or d5, the light seems to flicker between dim and bright.
