I am just curious how bad is it to floor it all the way down for a couple seconds. (for the tranny) And why is it bad for the tranny? Last night I got a little crazy flooring it had it WOT about 2-3 times. Usually I never take it past 4-5k because im trying to keep my REBUILT tranny in the best condition possible. When I floored it i was going like 15mph the car hesistates and then grrrrrrrrrrrrrr (intake) like 5 sec later and floored it up to about 80. I probally did this 2-3 times last night. So how bad is it really for the tranny? I try not to floor it on a regular basis. One time when i did it i had to slam on the brakes right after cause a cop was at the light.

Hmm I dunno is flooring it out of the blue at a slow speed and holding it down for 10 seconds what causes tranny damage?

if you are going to floor it...floor it right away dont go 10mph then floor it because you probably are just confusing the auto tranny shifting hard from second gear down to first...

Damn man still on first tranny? Kudos to u man! knock on wood we dont want to jinx it. Ya I dont get me wrong before my tranny broke I floored it every day from every single light. Thats what happens when your 16 and you love the sound of AEM CAI. lol but now i drive it like an old lady most of the time in fear of fukin up my tranny again.

"The Acura CL coupes are an antidote to the high-priced luxury coupe syndrome. The first line of cars from a Japanese luxury manufacturer to be built in the United States, the CL coupes were created specifically for the American market. Influenced greatly by the CL-X show car of 1995, they were designed at Acura's studio in California, and are built at Acura/Honda facilities in Ohio. The two models available are the four-cylinder 2.2 CL and V6-powered 3.0 CL. They fit into the Acura lineup between the sporty Integra coupe and TL luxury sedan. Both are aimed at a segment of the automotive marketplace that is seen as underpopulated by Acura: the affordable sports-luxury coupe."
