When I let off the gas going about any speed the car seems to sorta jump, not literally, but like it was cut off or something. The transmission was replaced awhile ago. But still i don't know what it is. Any ideas?

Take it back to the dealer that did the trans and ask for the head tech to go for a quick ride with you
They can say if its trans, a problem of some sort, or you need a repair they suggested months ago and you didnt do

 

Maybe misfiring.

 

thanks for the help. I'm gonna contact acura and find out cuz its driving me crazy.

 

maybe motor mounts. were they replaced with tranny? Was it done at an Acura dealership or ind. mechanic?
Agree w/01tl4tl about returning to shop and having them investigate, might want to specify whether it has happened since the replacement, or if it is recent onset. If recent, expect that you may pay for their input.

 

Well i haven't had time to take it to Acura yet. But I was driving today and all of a sudden it wouldn't accelerate so i pressed the gas hard and finally it like jumped and took off. I dont know what the deal is. Anyone one that?

 

Yeah, that's the one I've got. Plus the irregular surge when stopped in drive. I still have to take it to Acura. I replaced spark plugs, Throttle Body including IACV, o2 sensors, air filter, etc., etc. Nothing fixed it. On the Odysseys they have a similar problem with the idle that has to do with the p/s steering sensor which is located in the tranny. I haven't had a chance to take it in or talk to Acura, but I'm thinking I might mess around with that since my tranny was replaced 40k ago with a post-05 version. Let us know if you run down the problem.
