My car is at the dealer awaiting a new transmission. I'm a little concerned because my understanding is that they are going to put a rebuilt transmission back in my car that is identical to one that is being removed. I was wondering if anyone has had a problem with their second transmission?

Also, I didn't even get an Acura loaner. I have a POS Chevy Malibu for the next couple of weeks.

 

i'm on my THIRD TRANNY as you know. my last tranny was a rebuilt tranny i'm not sure how strong they are but mine lasted about 1 years and a half. my third tranny i mad them give me a new one instead, becouse of there mistake. all acura dealers do the rebuilt tranns and they are suppost to be a stong as new but well see

 

i'm hoping there won't be any problems with my new trans... but fuck, i'm still waiting for it!!! :sqntfawk:

 

I'm on my second tranny and so far no problems. I have about 5500 miles on the new tranny and i have driven the same for all my 19K miles so far.

 

So when Acura replaces transmission, is the replacement always a rebuilt one???

I had my tranny replaced a thousand miles ago. So far it seems okay. I just don't drive it hard at all anymore.

 

don't not drive your car hard...drive it just as you want...
there does not seem to be ANY corelation between driving style and tranny failure...none at all...and if it fails again, lemon law it, or acura will replace it or they will have to take it in at full market value on trade...
