It depends on your VIN # and how many miles are on your vehicle. You also have to be having transmission problems and it helps if there is a code stored in the computer. I just had my trans replaced this month in my 2003 CL and my VIN# was not listed on the recall and I was at 117k miles. Acura would only goodwill 50% of the transmission and I ended up paying $1900.

 

Certainly all 2nd generation CL trannies can't be bad. There must be a larger percentage that have had no problems. Couldn't there?

I hope so because I just bought a mint '01 CL type S.

 

I had the problem with my 99 cl I had to put the new mini rad in tto keep the oil cool pretty smooth now *&%*&%&* expensive would advise to get it installed before you run into this problem only 2- 3 hundred could save you a lot

 

Hey hay...I'm new here and have a 2002 CL 3.2 s and should I look into to this recall...My shifts slip up every now and again...whatcha think?

 

I just bought my excellent condition 2003 CL about a month ago. I have found that my VIN is included in the recall. How do I find out if it's been fixed? Also the extended warranty language specifies that the warranty covers vehicles for 7 years or 100,000 miles WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. Mine currently has only has 53,000 miles on it but am at/over 7 year mark. Will Acura still replace my tranny if it goes out prior to 100,000 although its been over seven years and I'm not the original buyer? Anybody in similar shoes gotten a replacement or not gotten one?

 

Are ALL the 2nd generation trannies destine for failure? Anybody have one 100k+ with NO tranny probs?

 

we have an 01 CL with 145000 miles, had it since new, no tranny issues so far... but the engine has just started randomly shutting off while driving...

 

I was the original owner of a 2001 CL-S that I sold to a friend and it currently has over 106k on the original tranny.

 

tranny cooler does absolutely NOTHING to prolong the life of the transmission in this case cause problems are related to insufficient oil flow and internal clutch pack failure as a result

 

my 03 cl was rebuilt and is having issues again, I just made a post about it, can I take it to the dealer and complain and possibly get a new one? its got 89k miles! I cant afford to fix it again
