What Does Your Acura MDX Transmission Do?

Your transmission carries power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive at the speed you desire. Because of the transmission’s responsibility to translate the right dose of power into the right amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your MDX’s performance. It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. Acura MDX transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking at any speed, or whistling noises and a burning smell coming from under the hood. If you ignore Acura MDX transmission issues you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that your MDX isn’t working at all.
