I gave them my car for a week to do R&D for coilovers for the AWD. They didnt have anything available for teh 4gs beside the FWD. So in exchange for my car for a week, I got the hook up.

Just run your A.C. It'll be good for you and your tranny.

Anyways, that's what I was told from a Honda tech.

That running the AC for our cars keeps the tranny temp down.

I have never heard of such a thing. Doesnt make sense either since our tranny fluid lines are run though the radiator. Running the AC shouldnt cool the radiator or coolant down, maybe running the heat does but that doesnt make much of a difference. and besides, you should know Noah that heat isnt the problem for our trannys

Acura thinks so, considering they installed tranny coolers to help with the failing tranny issues.

Not from the factory.... it was an afterthought once they had a ton of failures.

Doesn't really help unless your tracking the car or towing. Clutch packs and the case design and fluid passages were the problems.

I just tried entering the code on their website and it said it was invalid. You should probably call.

Just call them. Much easier IMO and help ensure you'll get in on time.
