My 2003 Acura TL stumbles in D5 when shifting from 1st to 2nd gear. This occurs under light to moderate acceleration. I don't have this same problem when I start out in D4 - shifts smoothly. I've seen all the posts on transmission problems. The D5 light does NOT flicker. Dealer has done the second gear transmission recall and installed the lube pipe kit and they say the transmission is OK. Other threads possibly indicate EGR or IAT sensor but at idle and all other times, the car runs smooth. anyone have this problem?

Hi macydot,

Since dealer has done a recall job on it, I would recommend getting back to them to check out.
