as title says my automatic transmission with 167k miles(I'm 2nd owner and was told it was mostly highway miles) jerks only shifting from 2nd to 3rd. It jerks just enough to where it bothers me and I feel i need it fixed. Transmission fluid at right level and redish pink in color. No CEL or Shifter lights flashing. Also the faster I'm accelerating causing the RPM's to go up increases proportionately to the amount of jerk i get from the shift.

Any help would be great as i can't find much info on other people having the same problem. Thanks in advanced

**Edit** also forgot to mention i added some Lucas Oil transmission fix and didn't help
**Edit** also my car is 1998 Honda Civic LX Sedan if the trim makes a difference

When is the last time it's been flushed? Are you runing OEM fuild?

I don't know that last time it has been flushed or what type of fluid is in it. I figured if it was the fluid that it would effect all the shifts not just shifting from 2nd to 3rd but I'm not a car whiz so what i figure could be wrong.

I dunno if this would help but my old saturn did this from 1st to 2nd and the problem came from the valve body being dirty. (not sure if honda has those kind of problems)

im having the same problem it jerks at 1st to 2nd gear (automatic) . i changed the spark plugs thinking it was that because they where pretty worn out but that wasnt the issue. help would be much appreciated guys thanks!
