wierd shifting....... :(:(

Whats up AZ!, i was drivin yesterday when i noticed my car shifted funnny..... i was like WTF everytime i would accelerate and shift SOMTIMES it would rev up then switch gears but not all the time..... then today as im driving it happened again.... i havent had time to drive around some more to test which gears precisely but it seems to happen when im shifting in all gears 2 to 3, 3 to 4, 4 to 5....... SOOOOO is this what i think it, is my tranny starting to give out i have about 110kms on it ..... it never had a tranny flush either would that make it shift better??? or should i go to acura and see what they say i dont have no warranty either.

hmmmm sounds interesting ...... did you get the same symptoms before you did the change??? and after it shifted alot better? and kept your tranny running or did you have to change the tranny eventually anyways?

well this morning i turned on my car and switched the gears from P to D5 but somthin wasnt right.... it didnt feel like it shifted out of N ... it finally shifted and i decided to drive the car to school, as soon as i started goin faster the transmission light came on and D5 was blinking and VSA light stayed on..... i got the codes from acura p0780 and i read up on the mitchell system saying i should replace my shifter solenoid A&B which are the double connectors on the trans... soo ordered it from acura and will recieve it monday..... should i try it out and see if its that or is my TRANS gone???
