Hello good people, the D4 light on my Acura TL 03 model won't stop blinking and the speed is seriously impacted. Any suggestions or referrals? Thanks in advance.

Run A scan on your vehicle using an OBD II Scanner and lets know what the DTC (Data Trouble Code)is....

Best you stop driving the car, until vehicle is scanned and faulty code(s) retrieved and possibly fixed.
Or your next budget, would be buying another gearbox !!!!

yes you can buy an OBD II Scanner for about 12-15k or have someone do this for you, where is your car?

The blinking D on an Acura means there is a transmission code stored in your computer and there is an issue with the transmission.
The mechanic you are using will not see the code if he is using a regular scanner.
You need an advanced scanner like the Launch X431 to point you in the right direction.

Some more info for you on what steps you may need to take.

Wrong.
The blinking D does not necessarily denote a tranny issue.

I scanned the vehicle for the said owner.

It was a power problem. His alternator was bad and vehicle was running on battery only.

We replaced the alternator, and fuse and D stopped blinking.

Car is now in superb condition.

P.s a small scanner as Ms609 can do d magic.
