Hi, There are some severe issues with Honda/Acura transmissions, including the year and model of yours. The problem is that there is no internal transmission fluid filter. The clutch/band material that wears gets into the front pump, valve body, and torque converter, which is why you have the fault code P1740 which for the 4th clutch pressure switch Unfortunately, the only recourse is to replace the transmission. Replacing sensors and changing fluids wont help. There was such as problem that Honda/acura extended the warranty on the transmission, which I have included. As you are past the mileage and yrs, contact Honda/Acura of America customer service. They have been real good about either absorbing the total cost of replacement or at least splitting the cost. I hate being the bearer of bad news, but I have seen too many like yours, and the results are always the same.
