I just bought a daily driver integra about 2 days ago and im afraid i might have found why it sold cheap or maybe im just paranoid. Anyways when the car shifts (automatic) it seems to be a little rough. Im use to new cars and stick shift so i may just be trippin but it seems to be more notciable when i drive slow it seems to jark into the next gear. When i drive fast it all seems to shift smooth. Just the way it is or tranny problem? Anything i can check on my own to tell?

 

 

anybody?

 

If I'm going very slow and it shifts it will shift a little hard because the RPM will drop hard with little acceleration. Try flushing out the transmission fluid a few times to see if it smooths it out.

 

Why would he flush the transmission out a few times? Besides the costly-ness of purchasing transmission fluid, you would only need to do it once.

Go ahead and purchase three quarts of Honda ATF and, assuming you have a B series, you will be using 2.5 quarts of it. This may help you out..or you could just go manual

 

Ill def do the tranny fluid this weekend.

 

Haha just kidding around man, it's your daily and it's YOUR car so keep the auto unless you find that it's toast.

 

Flush it with Wal-Mart ATF frist then use the good stuff. Anything is better than worn out ATF.

 

BTW your engine doesnt shift.....just FYI

 

if its not shifting into the next gear what is it doing then?

 

The engine is just varying from RPM to RPM, the transmission is shifting.

 

yes yes (cheese and rice!lol)

 

shift that **** yourself
