Just bought a 2000 TL TWO WEEKS AGO. It had 58k miles on it when I bought it.
In under 300 miles from date of my purchase, my tranny went. Was accellerating out of an intersection and when it tried to shift to 3rd gear, all I heard was rev's - and no torque.
Used the great information that I received from this website and presented it to the sales manager. I received a new tranny in just two days.
The Acura dealer who replaced the tranny insisted that the root cause was found, and the part re-manufactured. The service manager insisted that the third gear has a "burr" on it that was improperly machined, thus causing pre-mature wear.
