I have the oddest situation: once my 2008 Honda Accord V-6 gets above 45 mph and is running at steady speed, it will skip occasionally. It feels as if the car is shifting, but it's not--no RPM change. No warning lights come on and it happens whether the car is in the three-cylinder or the 6-cylinder mode. It happens on cruise control and when using the accelerator pedal. I've had this happen whenever the car is between 45 and 75 but not at lower speeds. It doesn't seem to be connected to the AC condenser kicking in, but I'm not sure (and don't know how to tell when the condenser is running). It's been thoroughly checked out by two different Honda dealers and they say there's nothing wrong. I can't imagine that Honda has designed a car that feels like its transmission is slipping occasionally or it's hiccuping! Any ideas, anyone?

 

Are you feeling it switching in & out of 3-cylinder mode?

 

Thanks, but no. I can't see any connection whatsoever to the car switching between the 3-cylinder and the 6-cylinder mode.
