Hey everyone! Hope everyone's ok...
Anyone know how to order a part for your car when they stoped making it ?
ive tried the Acura oem site I've checked auto zone, O'Reilly s , i Even called the Acura dealership... if someone knows something I'd appreciate it..

ive got the 03 Cl type S 6 speed
im looking for crankshaft position sensor B.. the one on the transmission..

If you are looking for Acura part # 37506 pge a12, (discontinued part), you may find it difficult locating an OEM new part. One option would be "car-part.com". Car-part.com lists several 6 speed cars. I have access to 10 local pick and pull yards, and rarely see a 6 speed.

When I google 37506-PGE-A12 and click on all of the Acura/Honda online stores, the sensor comes up 'discontinued'.

You can go to the Airtex/Wells website below that is a 'sensor manufacturer', click the 'suggest a part' link (top upper right hand side) and fill in the info. in regards to the crank shaft sensor. Hopefully, they will step up and manufacture one now that the OEM one is discontinued.
They manufacture the crank sensor A on the Pulley side of the engine for both the automatic and manual transmission, I don't see why they couldn't engineer tranny side sensor B just for the six speed.

This is an old sensor that was only ever used specifically on the 2003 Acura CL-S6. There were roughly 2700 of these cars produced, and plenty of them are dead by now.

There's an almost zero percent chance that these sensors will be produced again, so try to find a used one.

they already make a crank sensor B.. the actual sensor i mean.
the metal sleeve housing the crank sensor slides into looks easy to make.. * if u have the info *

the crank sensor B - the actual Black crank sensor is the same season on rsx - other hondas... other people have compared the actual sensor to other vehicles and its the same thing.

Finding the metal sleeve will be impossible brand new.. * Unless u have one made * but if u already have one.. ur set.. just change out the actual sensor and reuse the metal sleeve housing.

ive found the actual crank sensor on Ebay..

Part Number: 02-06 RSX - 37500-PNB-003
ep3 Civic - 37500-PNA-003
06-08 civic - 37510-RNA-A01 ** Not 100% sure - looks the same though **

*** these are pixs i found online - if you are the owner of these pictures and wish for me to remove.. just ask.. **








aliexpress has them for : US $12.07 / piece US $17.00 /piece Free Shipping

Now people who are using a accord or acura TL 6spd tranny with a cls6 manual ECU are fucked. i gotta drill a hole in my bell housing and somehow bolt down the cranksensor without the metal sleeve.. or have some CNC a metal sleeve for me. But then im gonna be measurements etc.. - If any of u actually have a metal sleeve.. measurements and pictures.. 360 degree woould be nice for future development.

Here is More pictures i found online.. ** like above.. if your the owner of these pixs and wish for me to remove them.. LMK **

ive been collecting pictures of the metal sleeve ** to make my own **
gettin pictures of the crank sensor.. comparing them to other honda crank sensors..
getting pictures of the Location of where the hole is on the cls6 manual transmission.. so future accord 6spd and acura TL/TLS owners can drive into there bell housings.. if using a cls6 manual Ecu..

Ive also had a idea about jumping the signal/stealing the signal from crank sensor A.. just wiring up both signal Wires together and see if that fools the ecu.. I have a 03 cls6 true motor and harness.. accord 03 6spd tranny im putting into a 96 4dr gsr.. or my 92 eg cx hatch.. ** i have all the parts.. just finishing up my "E" plug jumper harness.. finished my shock tower c101 c102 CL to EG shock tower jumper.. i wired up IMRC aswell *

If im wrong in anyway.. PLEASE tell me.. this is my first j swap and im not a expert.. any knowledge or advice would be welcomed..
Thank you

That should be a good solution for people who have sensor failures. It's not like the metal sleeve will fail (unless there's PP damage).

Thanks poormansr, that is great news that the sensor itself can be cross matched to other honda models. I just checked rockauto and the following sensors are related to #37500-PNB-003 crank shaft sensor:

Denso #1962003
Airtex/Wells #5S1917
Beck/Arnley #1800392
Standard Motor Products/Intermotor #PC376

In regards to that specific sleeve the sensor hides within the transmission on the CL-S6, if you have private mail rights here, try to email fsttyms1. He is a senior moderator and may have a spare one laying about to provide you the machining measurements you need.

Otherwise, I remember back in the day, (banned?) member NVAV6 had to machine the sensor hole into the boss of the TL-6 case he swapped into civicdrvr's CL-S6. If he (NVAV6, I think his name is Paul) can be located he may be able to help you as well. He is on other forums under the same username, IIRC'ly.

Good Luck!

Thank u so much.. I will look into this lead


If anyone Removes theyre tranny.. it would help if u can give me some measurements and pixs of the Tranny Crank sensor B metal housing..
im evenin thinking of just making one out of a 3d printer.. really it just holds the crank sensor B in place.. i dont see why it has to be made out of cast aluminum or whatever its made out of.

Sweet..

I found a flywheel crank sensor sleeve.. Gonna pay for it sometime this week..

So ill start gettn mwasurements.. And try to 3d print some out or cnc some..
.. Ill make a write up on how to drill an Accord and acurs tl.. Bell housing to install a flywheel crank sensor aswelll.. For them true 03 cls 6spd j swaps. Using the 03 cls6 manual ecu.... Minus the tranny..

tried all this info.

i had a spare rsx sensor from doing my k swap. almost identical. installed in my cl and it didnt fix my problem but its good info.
