...I purchased my TL.

It turned 100,000 miles last Friday and I'm still on my original tranny.

No major repairs as of yet.

1 coil pack
Motor mounts - did the window weld trick
Radiator fan switch
Normal wear items

That is all.

 

Now thats a reliable TL....

 

That's great..Definately got your money's worth.

 

Cool, I guess the R in Acura stands for reliable.

 

That's pretty cool dood! Seems to be a rare occurrence with 2G TL it seems. My TL-S is already on its third tranny and it's not even 66K old.

 

While mine hasnt had the luck of yours with the tranny every thing else has been great with no real problems.
3 motor mounts
1 ac compressor (like 25k miles)
normal wear and tear
Aug 22 of this year will be 6 for mine. Hopefully it will be on the road for its B-Day

 

You averaged about 14,280 miles a year. Planning on a timing belt change in 5,000 miles?

 

wow whats with all this tranny problems i hear. i bought my car recently at 70,000 does a TL really haave bad reputations with the transmission or something

and did you guys have to replace your trans.?

i mean 100,000 is nothing for alot of other cars.

 

I recomend you use the search tab at the top of the page. for this and many other answers

 

my bad. new to forums.

 

No problem! There is aton of info on the tranny related questions. that will give you pleny to read

Wecome to the forum!!

 

nsxnext got the good 99 tlp, congrats man

 

i HAVE 2000 TLP WITH 77000 MILES ON THE TRANNY

 

u dumbass, wrong thread

 

s'allgood man. you'll find that many of us have had to replace our transmissions, but this is an inherent design flaw with honda trannies and not so much related to how hard you beat on your car. the good thing is that the replacements are free up to the time your car reaches 7 years of age or 100,000 miles.

SSTS

 

wish they all this way

 

There is just something to be said about them SSM's...

Im at 135K and 1 additional coilpack ahead of you!

 

i have 103K on my 99 TL and on the original tranny but i have a bad motor mount. Whats the window weld trick?

 

From someone on the 2nd gen CL board. Same concept but he used a different product to fill them.

Congrats Neil! Mine (99 TL) is 7 years and 7 months old at 104K miles. Damn, how time flies when you keep modding. Had the original tranny replaced at 93K miles. Other than that just normal wear and tear.

 

congrats on keeping it for so long in such good shape!

 

Thanks for the report! That's great to read.
