I’m sure this has been discussed plenty of times before now. Long story short I purchased a used transmission from a salvage yard that was no good from the beginning, went out in three day’s
they refused to give me my funds back so I have to take them to small claims court.

I had a BAYA transmission rebuilt and it works fine. Can someone point me to
some literature to were the Acura, CL and the Honda, BAYA transmission are compatible?

Thanks in advance.

Would anyone happen to have some more information were it’s compatible to the Honda, 5 speed automatic transmission?
I know it’s compatible because I have a BAYA in it now but would need as much information when I’m in the courtroom.

It’s a 2001 CL base model

 

Thank you for providing me with such information. I was in need of a breakdown of how the transmission would function within my Acura,
Again Thanks for the information.

Your 2001 CL-P base model would then have a J32A1 engine block, from the factory, as opposed to the J32A2 found in the Type-S model.

I just finished swapping a av6 2006 honda accord 3.0l automatic non hybrid into my 2005 acura tl 3.2l and it's direct switch over you only need to keep your gear selector range switch from the acura transmission as the honda plug is different its only 4 bolts. Definitely the only way to go because 1. 2006-2007 accord trans is a lot more stronger than the 2005 acuras#2 the price is a lot cheaper . Very easy swap good luck
