Hello everyone I have a 2004 RL premium I need a left rear abs wheel speed sensor am I sol? I can't find it anywhere they carry all three other wheels no rear left thank you.

 

Welcome to the Forum !
For some strange reason, the left rear ABS sensor for the '04 RL is akin to an endangered species. Any luck with your Acura dealership ?
As a last resort you may want to check this out. Part from Dorman, labelled universal fit P/N 9705001.
Good luck.

 

Hello thanks for replying no luck at all even Napa said they can't even order it again thank you I'll try this I appreciate it!

 

Yeah. SOL. Only way is to find a Southern salvage car with a good sensor.

 

Yeah I actually reached out to a few it's not looking good i wonder what other parts aren't available anymore I've put a lot of money into the car id hate to have to sell it thanks for the reply! 👍🏼

 

No probs. Pretty much all of the OEM rear suspension is discontinued. Most of the front is as well. In general most OEM parts are discontinued. Considering most of the original parts on my car's interior dates back to 1999 with at least one part going back to 1996, parts won't be easy to find. Probably going to have to learn how to CAD parts and do small-batch manufacturing in order to keep these things alive. Shame really since this is next to the Jaguar X350 is the last great proper old-world luxury car.

 

Wow so it's gonna suffer the same fate as the other cars that's a shame thanks for the info I appreciate it!

 

Other cars? At least we aren't Legend I/II owners. Despite the high sales numbers, so little of them exist and with worse parts support than us.

 

Yeah isn't the Vigor in the same boat?

 

Nah, Vigor is in a worse boat. It, along with the 2.5TL, is on a bus ride to Hell. They have little support from both aftermaket and OE. The RLs have somewhat decent aftermarket support because of the long production run. Only 02-04s have issues with parts since a lot of common parts are unique to these years and region.

 

Got it damn and I love the vigors but yeah I see what your saying because of the split years I've put a lot of money into the RL it's my daily pretty clean id really like to keep it. Thanks for the information I appreciate it!
