Hey Scotty 1st- THANK YOU!~ love your content and have learned and saved so much from your videos! I recently purchased a used 2012 acura tl FWD w/ 190k miles from a 1 owner private sale- was dealer maintained and looked great-. However after driving it for a few weeks now, I notice I get an intermitent stutter from the engine when in low rpm (feels like my grip is not there w the tires) goes away w a pedal dowm on the gas, but also happens if i floor it to pass someone. This doesnt happen every time and seems random. I read on the acura forums this is common- some say its just the way the car drives w the torque converter locking. Should I be worried its a failing transmission? what else could cause this? I am waiting on a new air filter and will evaluate for air leaks. Any other ideas? THANKS

Well that is often how the torque converters work on those. As long as it doesn't get any worse, you can live with it because often it doesn't get worse. I'm torque converters are very expensive to replace
