I have a 96 Accord DX. When driving I notice a slight jolt when it shifts into another gear. It is not a bang or major jolt but it is noticable. I looked at the ATF and noticed that the transmission stick had more fluid than the max on the stick (This was done when cold). I need to know if this is normal operation or not?
Thanks!
