Im not sure if its happend yet, But this was happening to mine and about a week later the trany poped-and was locked in 2nd gear. I could still shift it but putting it in any gear other then second or neutral would cause the eng to stall out. Was odd cause even in neutral the car would move but it was burning the mess out of the clutch. Basically if yo know how go to a junkyard an get another one the tranny is toast.
1988 Honda acura legend S-3 light keeps coming on what should I do
If its automatic your transmission probably slipped,if it standard your gear is probably warn out and it cant grab it.

Acura doesn't make god quality cars.
a noisy second gear in your transmission is that your second gear might have broken gear tooth which is mostly the problem with my cars.either the second gear on the counter gear or the second gear itself.
I don't know the Acura as they are not in the UK But it may well have safety device fitted that will not allow you to shift from park unless your foot is on the brake pedal. If this is the case, check that the brake lights are working, if they are not it may indicate a faulty brake light switch.

you must have a clutch. put in second gear and push it and pick up some speed ,then engage cluch and put in second gear and release clutch ,make sure u have the key turned on.
Unscrew it.
"S" stands for sport. In this setting, the transmission has higher thresholds for upshifts and downshifts a lot faster. There are 2 sport settings, S3, which only goes up to 3rd gear and it is useful for driving on hilly terain, and S4 which is like drive, but with higher thresholds.
If you are asking how you can tell what gear the transaxle is in: It should shift from low to second at about ten mph. It should shift from second to high at about twenty mph.
The transmission defaults to second gear when it detects a malfunction.The transmission defaults to second gear when it detects a malfunction.
