The 2015 Acura RDX is known to have transmission issues such as shifting problems and shuddering. It is recommended to change the transmission fluid every 30,000 to 60,000 miles to prevent issues. You may hear concerning noises from the transmission if the fluid is old. A faulty torque converter can lead to headaches. The transmission is a vital component of the vehicle and problems are likely to arise. Symptoms may include stuck gears, jerking, hard shifts, shuddering, delayed shifts leading to acceleration issues, and possible slipping. Address any leaks in the transmission fluid promptly.

I experienced transmission issues with my 2015 RDX at 65,000 miles. The dealer resolved the problem by changing the fluid three times using the gravity feed method and updating some software. The car now runs smoothly. When I inquired why they used the gravity feed method instead of a pressurized one to remove 100% of the fluid at once, the dealer explained they had experienced issues with metallic filings getting displaced and causing further problems. The total cost, which included a military discount, was $375. It wasn't too bad considering the service provided.
