162,xxx miles. Still strong. Was gonna do water pump and timing belt, but turns out, the previous owner did it already. Parts were like new and OEM. Oh, well, got a OEM timing belt kit ready for the next 50k+ miles.

129K. I just bought it for $3500. I get a grind when shifting to 3rd gear. I will probably have to rebuild at some point

Order #23444-RDE-315; Gear Set, Mainshaft Third. About $177.81-183.69, depending on who you order it from. This is the third gear set stated on Service Bulletin 08-018; April 12, 2008.

Take it to:
First Class Automotive
3608 East Colonial Drive,
Orlando, FL 32803
(407) 228-2849

Ask for Nabil. He will give you a good price on your 6-speed tranny rebuild.

110k, everything seems fine but I'm thinking about changing the trans fluid just because I'm not sure when it was last done (only had the car for 4k miles).

Reached 200k on my CLS-6spd last week. Bought as a CPO in '04, been a great car that still looks good and runs smooth.

251,764 miles.. I just a put a clutch in it over the weekend that just past... my CL 6 speed runs great now.... this is actually my second CL 6speed... a lady hit my 1st one and totaled it... I bought it back and found another one that was actually the same color.. The dealer guy I bought it from said he bought with a lot of other cars as a package deal.. I kept some parts but parted it out and then junk the car... my 1991 Legend 5 speed LS had 321,000 miles before I hit a tree with it... I love the Acura brand but will only drive manual shift.. My wif e has a 06 TL auto.. wish it was a 6 speed too..

107,000 was just reached over the weekend. This silver 2003 CLS6 has been my daily driver for exactly 11 years this week. I'm the second owner -- it had 34,553 miles on it when I purchased it from an Acura dealership in Escondido in early February, 2006 (on Super Bowl Sunday, in fact : - ). It's been a So-Cal car its whole life ... but sadly not garage-kept. See the photo album in my profile for a few recent pics --- although those were really before/after pics of a home remodel, where my CLS6-mt happened to be parked in the driveway. Better pictures coming soon.

Cheers,

-- Jim

Just turned over 180k this week. Owned it since 60k back in 2006.

It's currently in the shop getting a new AC compressor, along with an new oil pan and sender (small leak most would have simply lived with), plus new end-links all around and rear swayer bushings. Other than this, replacing a couple ignition coils over the years, an upper control arm, a brake caliper, and normal scheduled maintenance, it's been trouble-free.

218k, bought as CPO in ‘04. Clutch at 160, belt at 140, coils at 180, brakes/suspension as needed but nothing unexpected or terribly expensive. New bumper covers recently thanks to two separate incidents (other drivers paid for each) so it looks even better now. Seat heaters no longer work (not fuse or switch..checked those and I’m not replacing the filaments). Otherwise it’s still smooth and comfortable. Recently took a 1500 mile road trip with no problems.

Just bought my first 6MT car, and my first personal Acura. Sitting around 300,000 km on the clock now. That's around 180k miles i believe.
