2006 TL auto trans problem!

Whats up guys!? Been searching forums and cant find anyone with the same symptoms my TL is giving me. 06 tl with auto trans that has 195k miles on it. When driving the car it pops into what feels like neutral after moving only when the car gets hot. The motor revs up but the car wont continue to move. Seems to be all gears. I tried flushing the fluid multiple times and it continues to come back it'll be fine for a few days after flushing but then it comes back. Dont want to just throw a trans in it if its something dumb and easy to fix.
Thanks!

trans is shot.
Torque converter has overheated and scorched the clutches and steals.

rebuilt or replace is the only thing left to do.

Car now has a permanent triangle with an exclamation point in the middle of it. Un hooked the battery and everything and it wont go away. The car now will not move at all. My buddy has a snap on verus and we are not getting a single code at all. Im wondering if its an electrical or selonoid issue??? The problem is no codes and cant find anywhere with the same symptoms.... HELP! Thanks guys!

What does the fluid look like? Sounds like others have mentioned that the trans is done. Passages are probably clogged. When you let it cool down it may help a bit but that's it. AV6 swap would be the route to go

Yes from what I understand it can be done for 04-06 as well. Someone else may chime in with details..
You can look for an 06/07 V6 non hybrid accord trans. I'd start at car-part.com. A good price for one with under 100k miles would be around $1k plus or minus.. Seems kind of odd you aren't seeing any codes though.
Here is the main AV6 swap thread https://acurazine.com/forums/second-...n-swap-905115/

I cant find anything for swapping the av6 into a 3g TL only thing I saw was for up to 2003 I believe?

are you sure it revs and it's a no go?
If the dash lit up like christmas tree and it wouldn't rev past 3k RPM (limp mode), it would be your app sensor (it would throw code P21xx something)
but if it's revving and no go.. as thoiboi said, not the axles, it's your trans..
I find it a little strange that it'll be fine for a few days after fluid change though..
That usually exacerbates the issue, assuming it was on old fluid to begin with.
