Hey everyone. I am new to the forums. I own a 2002 Acura RSX Type S. I purchased it with 65,000km. When I bought it I noticed there was a bit of a problem shifting into 2nd. I took it into 2 mechanics and both told me the clutch was gone. Great news. So, I phoned the dealership and they said " Bring it in, and we will replace the clutch with Acura parts for no cost ". I definetaly said alright! for sure. Anyways, long story short, got the clutch changed, at no cost, but now im noticing its still a bit rough shifting into 2nd gear from 1st. I have driven a standard for 2 1/2 years now, as my first car was a 1995 Acura Integra then I went to a 2006 Chevy Silverado, both which were standard and now I own the RSX Type S. Anyways, I've had the transmission oil changed prior to the clutch replacement. It only does it when the vehicle is cold, or its a really cold day. If the car is warmed up or its a warm day, it doesn't do it? Could it possibly just be the car and how it is, or maybe there is something internally wrong with the tranmission. I have a 4 year extended warranty on it, bumper to bumper, so If needed ill take it in to be fixed. Any reply's would be appreciated. Thank's

 

You might want to check into the shifting syncros. I have heard some things about how they can go causing difficulty shifting into and out of 2nd and 3rd...hope that helps.
