!!NEWBIE!! with car trouble
Hello everyone this is my first ime here at this site, just got me an acura tl, im upgrading from my acura vigor which i had for about 4 years. I bought it second hand but now im having a slight problem.. the damn thing won't reverse. When in the reverse gear i hear a loud moving sound from the engine area but it doesn't move. has anyone had this problem before? i need some help as to what this could be..

The car is a 99 TL it has about 110,000 miles on it. I dont think it has ever been rebuilt either. this problem only happens in reverse. it works perfectly when in drive, but in reverse it just revs up

Try taking it to the Acura dealer for a goodwill fix. The dealers know the trannys suck and a lot of them will at least cover half the cost. Talk to the manger not the service writer since the mangers are the ones that talk to acura directly.

I thought the 99 TL 4speed transmissions were stronger, and the transmission problem was only with the 2000-2003 TLs
