Zac's 1999 Acura 3.0CL
Hello everyone and welcome to my new project! Picked up this 99 Acura 3.0CL for cheap because it was not running, from what I could tell the oil pan was smashed and serpentine belt was melted and pieces of its remains were all over the pulleys and engine bay. Without being able to hear the engine running, I took a risk and decided to buy it and have it towed to my house.
Looking forward to learning all about this car and meeting the community.

I decided to tackle the oil pan and accessory belt, ordered a bunch of parts from Rock Auto.
Probably the easiest oil pan Ive ever replaced, and she started right up after we were done!!

After driving it for a few days I feel like the transmission is a ticking time bomb, shifts so hard and slips, will have to look into that.
Also brakes need some work, I have new pads and rotors here, but I want to rebuild the calipers and paint them.
Does anyone know where I can find the Radio Code? would be greatly appreciated!
