My friends 2000 Integra LS automatic is stutter-shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear, and takes a heavy foot and about 3,500rpm or 4,000rpm to get it to finally shift up into 3rd. Is this a pressure switch issue or a shift solenoid issue? I’m having trouble finding a clear answer online, and won’t be able to pull codes off of it until this evening.

It’s a 2000’s honda automatic transmission, it’s probably broken

What do you mean by stutter-shifting? The need for more revs sounds to me like it isn’t making enough fluid pressure. What’s the fluid level like?

This is accurate, but how broken is the question.

No idea - checking that today too. The engine winds out to the mid-rpm range and as the transmission attempts to shift it stutters - it feels like it’s trying to shift up, but won’t until you give it more beans.

Can always do a simple fluid/filter change on it.
Fixed many a “broken/junk” trans by just changing the fluid/filter. Too many people don’t realize this is part of regular maintenance.

I am NOT an expert in Honda automatics. Or automatics in general.
HOWEVER, stutter shift tends to indicate pressure problem or clutchpack problems. Some pressure problems include fun things like a cracked valve body or failed pump. The fact that you’re having to go to 3500-4000 to get it to shift into third but not reporting it on the 1-2, yeaaaaaaah, probably not the clutchpacks. So it is gonna be EXPENSIVE . And because it’s an Integra, you can forget a manual swap - that will cost even more. Because Integra. (Thanks, F&F. )
Honda automatics: not even once.
Also don’t expect anything useful out of the codes on a 2000 anything. Everybody’s codes are garbage.
edit: oh, and I forgot to mention, don’t waste your time with fluid and filter. It’s a total waste. If you haven’t been doing it every 25k (no I am not joking that is the specified interval and flush is MANDATED,) it’s already scrap. Not even worth an attempt at a rebuild.

I figured as much. I’m going to check the fluid level this evening and see if that could be the issue.

For somebody that’s says they aren’t an expert you sure have some strong opinions.
There’s no filter that you can change without taking the tranny apart but luckily fluid condition is important on Hondas. Check the level with the engine off and if the level is good and it smells or looks iffy drain and fill and repeat till you have clean fluid before condemning the tranny

You do realize I am rather knowledgeable o n other automatics and I own a ‘95 Integra GS-R so I’ve seen the owner’s manual recommendations, right?
25k fluid change interval is absolutely ridiculous and a clear statement of a defective design. Period. Doesn’t matter who made the transmission. And if you ignore the intervals and the transmission grenades, it’s jun ked , regardless of who made it.
Pretending changing the fluid will “fix” the transmission will always be the go-to line of scam artists and the incompetent.

I do realize from your comments that regardless of what you own or owners manuals you have read that you haven't actually repaired an Integra transmission.
