2008 Honda Fit Sport 5spd

Hello all,
I have a 2008 fit that has just got up to 100k miles on it. I do regular oil changes every 4-5k miles. I use synthetic oil every time. I do not drive it crazy or have ever "grinned" the gears. Lately, whenever i go into 2,3,4 gear and i accelerate it started to "studder"... it happens around 2000 and 3000 rpm. Once i get the rpm's up higher it stops. I am getting curious on if my trans is slipping around those gears and if the trans is just going out in general. Has this happened to anyone else? Do i just need to drive on higher rpms? Should i be looking for new trans. Thank You in advance. -Sean

It's the coil packs. A really common problem with our Fits.

When I had the issue I thought it was the tranny too, even more so because Honda's have some unfortunate tranny issues. However that was not the case and the coil packs got rid of that issue.
