I have a automatic 2010 Honda Accord, 2.4 just over 130,000 miles, no codes, 2 problems I've had is my ac compressor went, but mainly my transmission, when i accelerate in 1st gear going into 2nd gear the car jerks slightly then onto 2nd gear, the rest of the gears are fine. Also when putting in reverse the car jerks a little too.

Well unfortunately your transmission is starting to wear out. But if you change the fluid and the transmission filter it may help it pray it does

To add to what Scotty said Make you clean drain plug and area around it use a clean container and save old fluid. Sometimes new fluid can cause slipping. If it does happen you have the old fluid to put back in. When a transmission act like your they still can last a long time. A gentleman 2 blocks from me has a 1988 Monte Carlo SS which he is the original owner. His transmission started to slip slightly, and jolt going into 3rd gear. This started to happen in 2003. He still has car today with the original trans. Today is slips more, vibrates and bucks going into 2 and 3rd but still works okay.

How many times have you changed the fluid and filter in 130,000 miles?  You should be on you third change by now.


@Doc you beat me to it, that was going to be my comment.


Not intended. It amazes me how many people come on this forum with transmission problems that have no clue that the trans needs maintenance. How would their vehicle be running if they never changed their engine oil and filter for 130,000 miles?


Had an uncle who did that, it wasn't 130k but every engine hit 30kish miles LOL he was on his 4th engine before he pawned the thing. Poor Volvo. He bought it for reliability but didn't know why the engine kept failing.
