many automatic transmissions have a "limp mode" whereby if something is wrong with the TCU or ECU->TCU wiring [or the transmission itself], the transmission will only operate in 3rd gear.I have no idea if an acura LS would have this feature or not. Something to look into.
wouldnt be an auto if he said it'll shift into "1,2,3,4,5 and reverse" itd be 1,2,D(3),N,reverse

It's not the linkages. It's likely a broken fork.

Either way, if it's just a fork, thats a simple/cheap fix, if you can pull the tranny and the case yourself.

When I broke a fork on my DSM it got stuck in one gear....
