When is the last time the fluid was changed? Acura recommends changing the fluid much more frequently than the manual states as the auto trans destroys the fluid very quickly. I end up doing a fluid change every other oil change since you can only get 3-4 quarts out at once and the trans holds about 9-10 quarts.

so we just bought the car few days ago. i did check the fluid and it does need to be changed. its not even red in color!!! i did call my local acura dealer, they are aware of the issue however they cannot just do a software update. they said they
have to do a transmission flush and then software update. he said a lot of times a flush would fix the issue,.
