looks like my 96 is gettin a new tranny
took it to the dealer...bltching of how the car shifts smooth sometimes and like shlt the next. i have had the tranny serviced so they say they are going to replace it for the low low price of 3500.00. i bet the extended warranty co. is pissed. i advise all acura extended warranty holders to try and get a new tranny. my car has 82k on it, motor is bullet proof but honda trannys suk ass. cant wait to see how it drives when i get it back...

you're lucky you've got the extended warranty. i don't have the warranty and I have 169,779 miles. i've noticed a degrade in transmission smoothness after 120k. i'm either gonna get a new trans. or just trade her in when i have the money. too bad the warranty won't pay for a Legend GS manual tranny conversion huh. well good with the new tranny dbox

My tranny shifts like sh*t also. It seems to shift smooth if I don't allow the RPM's to exceed 3500. If it shifts right at 4000, the engine revs as if it doesn't know what gear to go to next. If I floor the pedal when the car is in 4th gear, it aslo revs and jerks hard as hell. I going to get of this car for sure! Forget replacing the tranny. The car only values at 6500 bucks!

NebTL, what year is your ride and why the bloodclot is it only worth 6500. anyway, Im assuming one can only do the Legend GS manual tranny with the 3.2's, and not the 2.5's.... anyone out there can confirm??

A friend told me that his mechanic has a TL with siezed up cam shaft. HE is having a hard time finding a replacement from a salvaged TL because all of them are siezed as well. (Advise is to Change oil regularly). Has anyone else heard the same kind of rumors concerning the inline 5

My 97 3.2TL had the transmission replaced last month at 84,000 kilometers (Canada) because of hash shifting from 1st to 2nd and the replacement is worse than my original because it slips in reverse and flares up 1,000 rpms when manually shifting from 3rd to 4th. Acura is replacing it again under warranty next week
