Question
My Honda has been acting funny lately. Yesterday I turned on my car and it was making a putting sound inside the car and when I put the car in drive and put my foot on the gas it was kind of struggling to accelerate. Also the other day I started my car and the D4 light in the speedometer area was flashing along with the TCS light coming on and staying on. I turned the car off then restarted it and the flashing stopped and the TCS light went off. One last thing when I turn on the car and put the car in gear (any gear)it jerks and it will do that while I am driving. What could be wrong? Please help.....

Answer
Ebony, this is a Transmission issue. When the D4 light blinks this is part of the ECU trying to tell you that there is a code and the Transmission needs to be serviced.

Check the Transmission fluid level ASAP! You could just be low on fluid. When adding more transmission fluid only use Honda ATF. You also might look into having Jiffy Lube perform a Transmission fluid flush and service. You are getting close to 120K so this is the time that you have a complete service done to the engine too.
