We have owned the car for almost 3 years now and while the car has been incredibly reliable (read- it’s a Honda), the transmission could be better. When the car is first started each day, it will shift hard from 1st to 2nd and a little less hard from 2nd to 3rd. Once the car is warmed up, this problem goes away. I’ve researched this a ton online and have seen a variety of possible solutions suggested. We had the transmission fluid flushed twice with OEM Honda ATF and had the range switch replaced, which yielded minimal improvement. Some people have just left it as is, continued to drive it, and just lived with it. I guess you could say we took that route now as it just didn’t make sense to try messing with it any more.
Besides that, it’s done everything we have asked of it. Took it from Syracuse to Buffalo to NYC and back just a few thousand miles ago without a hitch.
For anyone that’s interested, please PM me or call/text (716) 479-7025.
