Angry I knew this was coming.....

My tranny failed.... 2000 w/63K miles on it. It's at Cerritos Acura for tranny replacement and I got 05 TL w/NAV for loaner.

They're saying replacement tranny has all the new parts inside but used case?? Scratch

I am already in the club lol with two V6 Hondas (an Odyssey solenoid and an Accord -2trannies fail in under 72000mi/140500km).

Have they (Acura) fixed the issue with new models?

Welcome to the club.

Yeah, so I asked them if it's rebuilt tranny and he says 'no, it's just used case w/new parts inside.' (Yeah, that's rebuilt tranny!!)

Yea no sense throwing out a perfectly fine case. From what ive ben told/found out with my 4th failure, they have finally redesigned some parts inside. So lets hope and see if it helps correct teh problem


Oh and bummer that it failed. My 2000's first tranny made it to like 79k, then the rest were down hill from there

now you know why I didn't mention mine going two months after I picked it up... I got a fucking EL as a loaner, I'm sick of these dealerships giving you a crappy car because you look young...I got an EL on trade for my TL, they are going to get a nice earful when I go to get my car... today..
