Description of the problem | Transmission does not shift smoothly, especially when coming to a stop you can feel and hear the transmission down shifting. First we could feel the engine jutter between 35 - 40 mph when upshifting. Dealer said it needed a software upgrade. We got the software upgrade - made it worse. They then said it needed a new torque converter. The new torque converter fixed the juttering, now the downshifting is not smooth. We took it to the dealer again and they are telling us it's fine. I've spoken to a mechanic and he mentioned that he has heard a lot of complaints regarding the odyssey's transmission. |
