Internal Transmission Failure
Just did my own brake job. Just had 2 new tires put on. Looks like I'm FINALLY ready to get my car inspected (expired in April 05).
Nope.
It occasionally slips and has jumpy/jerkiness in 3rd gear. Today it was happening ALL DAY. Called up Acura, whined about it, and they took the car. After a 2 minute test drive the guy came back in and told the service rep "internal transmission failure"...she told me it was covered under the extended 7 year/100k tranny warranty. I was hoping they would take the car before I got stranded somewhere with TOTAL failure. Yay.
Welp..add me to the tranny club. 2001 purchased in Oct of 2000 and it has 68,200 miles. I have a luxurious (pfffffft
) chevy impala rental that Acura is covering....these other cars sure make you appreciate an Acura.
Yup another tranny failure thread. Move along, nothing to see here...

Watch her husband be a tough repair tech and he visits the boards. So much for my car.
