So remember the street sign story from my other thread?

http://www.acura-tl.com/forum/showth...threadid=68140

Yeah well i got the MAP sensor working for now. So driving it yesterday i smelt something funny, pulled over, popped the hood, and theres smoke. It was burning oil... ****ING AWESOME (sarcasam)


So i took it to my dealer and low and behold it wasnt something simple like the oil pan or something... NOOOOOOOOO, Chip had to put me in to a god damn TSX for the next 2 weeks while they pull my tranny and find either a cracked block or something else up there that got tottaly ****ed from a mother ****ing god damn street sign.

a ****ing street sign. god damnit.

Im seriously done with this car. I love it and all and its my life but its F-U-C-K-I-N-G C-U-R-S-E-D....

Hopefully things will change in 02! Remember, it can't rain all the time.
Definitely rip the crap out of the TSX and remember it's only a temp! Good Luck!

LOL.... even better! I've had an '03 TLP for a week now, and will have it for another week, and I'm driving the piss outta it. It only had 800 miles on it when I got it, and its got 1900 on it now!!!

thats what i said, but they said "why not? solid steel street sigh slams in to aluminum block? could cause a micro fracture"


im praying its NOT that. if it is, i will be claiming it on insurance and getting an eBay (or whatever) CL-S motor and 6 speed tranny. cause i sure as hell aint gunna dump $4K on the dealer to fix my 80K miles TL-P motor....

Sorry to hear that you have to go through all that, at least enjoy the TSX for now. Hang in there so you can at least make it to the Orl. meet.

dunno. dealer has 13 trannies in the shop right now and im happy in the TSX, for now, so i told Mr. B (the service manager, family friend for years) to take his time and get the urgent stuff done first.
