Eliminate transmission slipping, harsh downshifts, and limp-mode codes with this premium JDM 2019-2022 Acura RDX SH-AWD 10-Speed Automatic Transmission. Imported directly from Japan, this genuine OEM powertrain component is engineered specifically to handle the high-torque output of the 2.0L Turbocharged K20C4 engine. Hand-selected from clean, low-mileage Japanese donor vehicles, these JDM units have significantly fewer miles (approximately 45k–60k) compared to domestic high-mileage salvage options. Built to pair perfectly with Acura’s advanced Super Handling All-Wheel Drive system, this authentic factory 10-speed transmission restores smooth gear transitions, optimal fuel efficiency, and original factory performance.

Installation & USDM Drop-In Notes

• Sensor & External Module Swaps: While the core mechanical gearing, casing, and torque converter are 100% identical to your domestic unit, installers must transfer the original US-spec outer wiring harness, external gear position sensors, transmission control modules (TCM), and cooling lines to guarantee a direct plug-and-play match with the factory Acura ECU.
• Fluid & Level Reset (Crucial): Always thoroughly flush your vehicle’s external transmission lines and heat exchanger before firing up the new unit. Refill exclusively with genuine Acura ATF Type 2.0 fluid to ensure proper hydraulic line pressure and long-term clutch friction durability. Do not use generic multi-vehicle automatic transmission fluids.
• Preventative Maintenance: For a long-term, leak-free repair, it is highly advised to replace the output axle seals, input shaft seal, and the engine-side rear main seal while the transmission is detached from the block.
