[quote:a0999c3f75="CHAZE"]I JUST INSTALLED NEW MOTOR MOUNTS ON MY 99' ACURA TL 3.2 ,
AND MY TRANS. STARTED SLIPPING,
FROM 1ST TO 2ND THERES A LONG PAUSE IN NEUTRAL BEFORE I HIT 2ND GEAR
AND 3RD TO 4TH A LONG PAUSE BEFORE I HIT 4TH GEAR.
THE CAR JERKS REALLY HARD WHEN SHIFTING
DOES ANY ONE KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM WOULD BE?[/quote:a0999c3f75]

We had a tranny replaced on our '02 TL Type S last year. There was a recall of sorts where Acura did a voluntary extended warranty on the 3.2 cars for a known defect of the transmission. Yours may still be covered by this. They will even pay for repairs done elsewhere. You might want to call Acura for details.
