Slow upshifts

Hey guys does anyone have very slow upshifts? I noticed my car does this and other TLX v6 I drove doesn't. I seems like onler the earlier builds have this issue. My tranny was replaced on the side not and shits are super smooth.

Could you elaborate more when the slow upshifts are happening? Does it happen when the rpm is low? And at what transition does it happen? 2-3? 1-2?

Hey guys sorry I had a wedding this weekend and now recovering :-)

Slow in the aspect it fees as if it will never shift at all then it makes it. Paddles are ok. Since my tranny was replaced I don't have have rough shift but I notice it stretches the shifts. Anyone's is like this

Also a funny thing I put my car In normal mode this weekend and it drives a hell of a lot better thanks sport mode. I don't know what to say anymore about this
Car lol it's something new everyday.

Probably and they probably upload a 4 cylinder map on these cars. My tsx drive sooooo much better than this car quick fast response and actually pushes u back in ur seat. I want to see what Acura is doing next or I'm making the move to Infiniti and thr turbo line. 10 different Acuras I owned and this was the worst one lol.

Last time I brought my TLX SH-AWD in for service I was given a loaner hitch had better throttle response. And quicker downshifts. Then I realized the default setting on the IDS was Normal and mine is Sport go figure But I like the tighter steering in Sport so it's always a compromise

that's exactly what I'm talking about the, other v6 I drove had the same response as you stated. it makes me upset at acura for doing this I think its an early build issue. what year was your car built? you thinks Its programming that will fix this issue? or is it the tranny? I got a new one and the shifts are super smooth but the throttle response Is not as good as the loaners I drove.

My car was built October 2014. I only had one update applied and that was the recall regarding the car shifting into neutral .
