Santa Monica Acura not that bad after all

stepped on the gas today, felt the tranny slip, then the vsa stuck on would not come off, and the check engine light came on. I took it to Santa Monica Acura, waited two minutes with plenty of other people there as well, they took my car and prior to even inspecting it the guy who was helping me told me i'm gettin a new tranny. AND i have a 2004 TL as a loaner even though i'm 20 years old they gave me no problems about the loaner.

maybe SM Acura has gotten some lip from Acura HQ about their bad customer service. But i know i'll never do business with them ever again.

How many miles on your car? Was that the original tranny?
