I had the infamous transmission problem, and got it back from the dealer today...they exchanged the transmission and torque converter.

The loaner car I had for 2-1/2 days was a Toyota Corolla, an ok economy car (key word economy), but what a difference from the CL-S! Glad to get the CL-S back.

When I took the car in on Monday there was someone else bringing their CL in for a transmission replacement also. When I picked mine up today there was another Silver CL in the waiting-to-be-picked-up section with a "Weapon-R" decal on a side window...anyone on this board? The dealer was Duval Acura in Jax, FL...

I also saw a brand new Blue 2003 CL-S on the lot...sharp

 

the '02's seem to be going faster than the '01's
