hello. it's crazy, i lost two days and still nothing. i can't open transmission.

acura tl 2005 manual.
help me plz.
two big mans can't open this lock ring.

 

 

Take it to a trans shop and slip the guy a $20...OR..keep trying.

 

)))

 

It looks like, from the angle of the picture above, that the transmission case is 'cocked' to the right?
Is there a way to even out the transmission case by getting it a little closer to the clutch housing, first?
Maybe that will release pressure on the countershaft ball bearing, then, secondly, try to expand the snap ring simultaneously while lifting the trans. case straight up?

 

i did it last 30 hours, changing something... nothing... guys on the youtube did it very easy ... i bought special tool ... nothing. you must understand how strong i pressed on the crossbar.

​​​​​this is car for my daughter, but i really nervous about final results... it's so hard for me and i can't finished it.

 

Something ain't right...did you try tapping it left, then right a few times?

 

paging @Bense any help for this guy?
