I'd assumed you were talking about an auto-trans issue but if it's an
engine related hesitation, then that might be it - check with your dealer
to see if your VIN falls in the range for the TSB. That TSB seems to be
unavailable - a couple of years ago, Honda prevented the publication of
their TSBs at NHTSA or Alldata. The current situation seems to be that if
it's safety or emissions related, their "ban" has been overriden by NHTSA
and the TSB *is* in fact available. E.g. the EGR issues with V6 engines is
here
http://www.nhtsa.com/TSBScans/sb627312.pdf. If you have an emissions
issue and are looking for the full TSB substitute the NHTSA Item Number for
the 627312 in the above URL - if the TSB is available you can download it.
