CHECK ENGINE LIGHT problems 02 and tranny
hi guys,
my friend's 99 TL (75,000 miles) got the check engine light and tcs light come on at the same time while driving on the highway, brought it to the local shop and the code said something about "transmission malfunction", i wasn't there so i dunno the exact code number, in any case, the shop couldn't find anything wrong... any ideas guyz? should he juss bring it to an acura dealership? also when i pop his gear in reverse, it jumps quite a bit, is this a sign of a slipping tranny?...
now my 99 TL (103,000 miles) got the check engine light come on also, code P0420, bank 1, threshhold below limit, my shop says it's about $1,000 to change all the sensors...
is this right?... i'm about to juss leave it like this, will this be horrendous for my car or juss kill my gas?...
any help would be greatly appreciated! thanx!

yeah i had some really crappy service at my dealer too. the service wasnt too great at all. they didnt even call when they were done, i actually callled them and they told me that they were done a few hours ago and i could pick it up.. then when i get there, my ignition switch was mesed up so they had to change that out because they didnt connect something right when they replaced tranny..
oyeah and now my tranny is leaking so i have to take it back and get it replaced again, except i dont want to because i cant trust them anymore and im gonna miss my TL too much again. this tranny problem is getting really out of hand especially with the dealer service guys..
