2001 Acura CL TYPE S transmission swap question
Ok I have a 2001 Acura CL TYPE S
Automatic
177,000 mileage on car
When I start it and drive it it hard shifts into second then doesnt shift at all just high Rpms
When I come up to stop signs and if I dont let it easily shift into gear
D5 starts to blink and I can continue driving and when I come to a full stop
Check Engine Light stays on
It's very hard for car to accelerate till I hold the pedal down and let it pick up speed
In order for me to get rid of the D5 blinking I have to turn off car and restart it check engine light stays on
To actually be able to drive the car in all 5 gears
I have to put it in the manual up shift downshift mode
Even then it slips into 2nd then I ease of speak to shift into 3rd and 4th and 5th is smooth
And then I can drive 80+mph on highway with no problems
I have been driving the car like this for over 2 months approximately out on 500/700 miles
Driving like this.
After searching hours online I'm pretty much guessing a bad transmission
So I wanna know all possible transmission swap options available!!!
Easier swaps the better
All I seen is you can do either the original type s trans odyssey or 04-08TLs Base models only
Are these my only option or is there others and if so
What are the requirements
Thanks for reading and please help
