alright, so three times today, i was cruisin at about 30mph, not sure which gear(i have an auto) and i pressed lightly on the accelerator and the rpms just went up, with no increase in speed, then i let off, and it caught back on, then i was driving just now, and the VSA exclamation point lit up, and the VSA light came on, AND the check engine light came on....i parked, turned the car off, then back on, and the check engine light was the only one on....WTF is going on, i know many of you will suggest the tranny is about to go, and i agree, but any other possible problems? im sure i need to make a trip to my acura dealer to get my tranny replaced though....ill probably take it up there this week...fuckin hell

 

Yea sounds like a auto tragic coming along you should definitely go to acura and get it check out.

 

..........Another one bites the dust

 

Shitttttttt

 

yup, dead tranny. sorry man.

 

how many miles you have on her?

 

shes only got 68k !!!

 

but does the VSA light and the check engine light come on when your tranny is messing up??

 

i should be ok though right...? only 68k miles...

 

i mean, i should be ok as far as the warranty terms go, right? they should replace it free of charge?

 

lol should be okay, bring her in!

 

hah aiight, i just called, im takin her in at 10:30 tomorrow morning, would have been today, but...they dont have any loaners today, im pretty sure im getting a TSX tomorrow


btw...i've owned hondas in the past...and when i call the honda dealership some bitch picks up and is rude as shit and so is everyone else i speak to....i called the acura dealership and the two ppl i spoke to were very polite and professional over the phone...nice

 

yea, so i just took it in, i was driving it and it wasnt gonna make it to class, so instead of tomorrow, i took it in today....shes in the service lot right now....god i hope the warranty covers this

 

You'll be fine, it's not 2008 yet and you're still under the 100K mark....don't sweat it man. Look at the bright side, you're getting a new tranny right before the end of your warranty, so this might be great timing...you're car showing you some love in a different kind of way. It could've died a few months into 2008 and then you'd be F@#KED

 

dont sweat it man. She'll back up and running in a few days..

Our TL had 38k miles on it when the tranny took a shat... Second one is holding strong as hell considering she has 120k on the clock now...*knock's on wood*

 

how old do you have to be to get a loaner? im only 19, i might have to find someone to go with me if the age is 21, or 25...
