Probably your only options are to get yours rebuilt by a tranny shop, get a used one from a salvage yard or get one from acura. You will probably get the best warranty from acura, but will be more money. I have read on this forum that some people have had acura give them the tranny and all the had to do is pay for labor to replace it, might want to check that out.

i think i remember seeing like $900 for a refurb from acura...

some questions for you:
-Mileage?
-Service history ( have you changed the transmission fluid at regular intervals?)
-Ever had your tranny checked/oil jet installed by the recall?

I would make sure it's not an axle first. Put it in park, brake off, and try to push it.
