Settling into my CPO 08 base TL. I was looking at changing the pressure switches and ATF in a couple thousand miles (when I reach 30,000).

When I reverse then shift to drive, I notice a audible click/clunk coming from the tranny. Is that normal for this car? Its more noticeable than my 2nd Gen TL or my wife's Pilot.

Any ideas?

 

Yes, it's normal.

 

Yes. Not just Acura's, but Hondas do it too.

 

Wait, pressure switches and ATF need to be replaced that soon? I'm almost at 3k too.

 

No, they don't NEED to be. But you can if you are super anal.

 

I'm reaching 30k, not 3k.

 

A click is normal. I heard it on all the TL's I test drove.

 

click is ok CLUNK is not ok. 94 accord, 98 accord 05 TL and 02 CLS all click when engaging transmission. If you drive your car hard check your mounts
