2015 CPO TLX V6 Advance Transmission issues
We were at the stop light after wife accelerate car got a warning light for transmission P0730 then after all lights came up such as brake system, lkas, cmbs etc. since we are just halfway mile we continued running the car with all the warnings. The D light is flashing as well, turned off the car and started it back still have all the warnings except the flashing D has stop. Called Cerritos Acura and dropped off the car but the warnings are gone when I’m almost at the dealer. Next day service advisor called me that they cleared the codes but the car is having a hard acceleration and said the service manager will test road the car. Service advisor called today that they are replacing the transmission. I am hoping the transmission is brand new not refurb.

Google says that code is for "incorrect gear ratio" or "faulty shift control." A search for this code on AcuraZine popped up many threads under 99-03 MDX, CL and TL for blown tranny. You had something serious happen to yours.
Glad to hear the happy ending to your story. My dealer replaced mine 2015 TLX V6 SHAWD Advance tranny after I complained about all sorts of rough shifting 1-2 and 2-3 and weird behavior. I hope you're as satisfied with yours as I am mine. It transforms the car. I have to say that despite this whole jerky, noisy ZF9 transmission fiasco, I'm proud of Acura/Honda for replacing these and some of these dealers (like yours) for stepping up to the plate for the owners. I saw somewhere on AZ that these replacements are estimated at $4k a piece all in. I don't know if FCA/Jeep is offering whole scale replacement like Acura is.

So the transmission has been replaced, changing gear is smooth now but there is a mild vibration at the steering wheel when it reaches normal temp on idle. The mild vibration can be feel only when u touch both hands at the steering wheel. I need to check and compare with the other tlx if its normal on the vibration.

The car is back at the dealership, service advisor confirmed that its not normal. Service advisor assumed that when they replaced transmission, mechanics might have broke the engine mount.

I got my car back, vibration gone at the steering wheel, engine mount at the front and rear is broken. Car transmission shifts great. I suggest for those ppl that having their car replace transmission, after taking it back check for vibration.
