Exclamation New Tranny

I dropped my car off at Park Ave Acura today at 9 am. I got a Mitsubishi Lancer loaner from Enterprise paid by Park Ave or Acura. I just got the call from Vinny one of the service reps there and he said that I will be getting a new tranny... it will be about a week before I see my car again...hopefully it runs alot smoother w/ the new one. But at least Acura is stepping up to the plate and doing it under warranty.

hzm82,

I think I've either seen your post or someone else's post regarding the warranty extending to the 1999 3.2 TL's.

What are you basing your information on?
Do you have an official document or link to one that I can check out or did you just call your local Acura dealer and they told you?

I went to www.acura.com Owner's Link and all I could find was the original tranny warranty which doesn't cover the 1999 models...maybe that's not such a good place to look for it.

Please let me know...very curious about this!

Thanks
Nick N.

Which dealer do you use in NJ ? I was in mine today cause my Navi is acting up, I brought up the Tranny thing, and he blew me off, damn bastard.....I got my car from Precision Acura in Princeton, but I work all over NJ, so I would go to wherever they treat you the best, I heard good things about Park Ave.....

the triple-flush is either BS or there was so much crap in your tranny that they had to run the machine for a while to clear it all out.

they might be too cheap to replace it.
