What are the symptoms of TSB 18-047

Not sure. Never had the problem. Or if I did, I've never noticed it.

What I'd like to know is how you're supposed to upload a snapshot of a torque converter judder :confused:

Interesting observation in looking at the TSB's details. There's a list of parts required if they need to do the tear-down work. In that list, they indicate as an oil filter 15400-PLM-A01 . Seems very interesting to me they specifiy the Filtech version of the filter, rather than the -A02 version that has been the default choice for the last decade or so....... Hmm.....

Generally if holding a steady throttle while going up a slight hill you'll feel a judder, and see the rpms jumping up and down just a hundred or so rpms. Flushing the ATF and updating the software has fixed like 98% of the issues that I've seen.

itsi about damned times I got mine monday. We have struggled with this for an eternity

ok so is this in addition to the previous recall for the airbags last year? Or just a reminder TSB from the orhginal TAKATA issue. because on the Acura site when I put in the VIN for my 2012 TL (which is listed in the new TSB) it says no recall repair required.

Added new TSB 19-052 - Warranty Extension: Engine Oil Consumption Exceeds Client Expectations.

Added new TSB 19-059 - Service Manual Update: Evaporative Emission (EVAP) Control Diagram.

Added new TSB 20-006 - Warranty Extension: Customer Support Program for Driver's Airbag Inflator for 2013 ILX and Other Listed Years and Models (Expires January 31, 2030).

My power steering just failed when my wife was driving my 12TL. Nice to see extended warranty on EPS module. Going to call dealer and hope my VIN is covered.
