My Tranny Sucks
I 'm sick of this s_i_. As we speak my tranny is being replaced again. This will be my second transmission. Yes count it, the original, the second @ 60k miles, and my 3rd 14 months later. What the hell do u do?

What are your driving habits. Do you let the car warm up before you go anywhere.. Do you shift in the red all the time, or downshift to early. Do you find yourself beating on your car all the time..

Nope. I drive like Grandpa. Never take the car in the red. Although, I drive more than any average person per day. I think this is nuts. This one will blow next Dec, 04, or Jan-Feb, 05. I'm going have to come out of my pocket for a tranny that the problem was never resolved.

Are you getting ur tranny replaced at Hall Acura? I've told them about how my tranny sucks and they won't do anything about it until it actually blows up while I'm going 80 on the interstate and it drops me down to 2nd. Did your's actually go or was it just acting strange? This pisses me off to cuz every day I fear it messing up on me. It's also embarrasing cuz when people ride in my car they ask me "what is that shaking?" when it shifts

I thought driving in D4 for city and D5 for highway was actually bad for our cars? Correct me if I'm wrong?

Other than that, just leave it in D5, and concentrate on the road!!!
