Tranny #2 is going bye-bye at 155,000 miles. I'll keep you all posted to the outcome of this scenario. Headed to dealer this afternoon. And by the way, this is one of the rare four speed trannys. First one was replaced in July 2004 with 101,000 one the odometer.

 

that sucks.. but atleast u got 101k for the first one.. that's good

 

bummer

 

buy a used one....or buy the new rebuilt ones if u know its actual build date.

 

well i am taking it to dealer this afternoon to see what my options are. hopefully i can get one that was rebuilt (reman) after Feb 05. i'll keep everyone posted.

 

Have we had an occurances of the new reman. trannies going out yet or is it still to early to tell?

 

Which dealer are you taking it to? Keep us updated.

 

no one has report any failures yet, well i take that back, i think *one* person has but no one reported back what the failure was from. i think a year is long enough, there are plenty of people out there who put 45k a year on their cars. (45k being the statistical failure mileage, with some being higher and some being lower). although i think for the vast majority we will find out in the ensuing months.

i have a pre-05 reman myself, so i'm hoping it works.....and that if my tranny goes it does it under warranty.

SSTS

 

Thanks for the info! I hope you have good luck with your tranny!

 

I take my car to Acura Carland in Duluth, GA. They do excellent work.

 

This is sad - your TL is one of my favorites on the board because of how well you've taken care of it, the color, rims, and tint.

We have a Camry with 136,400 miles and an 02 TL with 61,500 and it's sad that I will never trust the TL to the mileage the Camry has simply for this reason. Tranny number 1 for our TL was replaced at 47k in October of 05 and tranny number 2 is starting to behave a little funny recently (the TL's been sitting a lot lately, though)

 

i felt the tranny on my 99 TL slip today and yesterday. It was in third gear and i pressed the gas about 3/4 way down and it tried to shift into second but i only felt the car pull a little until about 5K rpm and then it just slammed into gear. I think im joining the dead tranny club soon. im at 102K right now on the first tranny

 

Do u have any codes as of yet? My first one started acting up right around the same mileage. I would maybe have the dealer check it out for you. Although you are barely outside the warranty, they should still be able to work with you on a free replacement.

 

I know what you mean. I have a 99 Galant V6 I purchased almost brand new six years ago. My wife drives it now, trouble free at 142,000 miles. How ironic????
