I had Buerkle replace my tranny fluid 7000 miles ago and last week I took my TL in for an alignment at Firestone (lifetime alignments
) and they said my tranny fluid was brown and suggested I change it. Strikes me as odd...

Have any of you had to buy a rebuilt tranny? My buddy has a '99 TL and the tranny just fell out.
If so, where did you buy it and what did you have to pay (if I may ask)?

Almost forgot....they said my rear sway bar bushing are shot. Could this be the culprit of the annoying clunk I hear when I go over bumps? Is it an easy fix...or I should say, is it an easy fix for Joe? Haha

I'll pay whoever wants to fix it. I'm waiting to hear back from Joe about a free wknd so I can get the spring on the idler pulley for my serpentine belt fixed...the sound it makes until it the engine is fully warmed up is gawd awful.

I have seen plenty of aftermarket rebuilds come into the shop that have been towed in after the rebuild fails and leaves them stranded. I know acura has a 3year 36month warranty on their remans but they are not cheap. The best bet for the second gens is to install a 04-06 trans as they had fewer issue's. Here is a thread on the upgrade... I have done a handful of these upgrades myself, and will be doing one on my car when i finally blow my trans. The 99 being a 4speed AT does require a few extra pieces (5speed AT ecu & 5speed AT engine harness) even with the extra's you will be well under the price of a rebuild or reman Trans.

Don't feed the...WTF?
I got a new windshield in my car today. Really suprised - I got AAA to spring for replacement factory glass rather than PPG/Safelite.
Now my car should be a little faster without all the craters holding me back

I'm getting my windows tinted this afternoon at Tint Pros Mobile they did a good job on my mom's Honda Fit. I'll probably do 50% in front and 30% or 20% in back which is what my mom's car had done and it looks good and keeps the car cool. Then I might get white LED replacement bulbs for my interior lighting, LED turn signals and black front grills like Josh has on his BMW.
On a side note my old TSX that I sold to my grandma just had the OEM brake pads replaced after 60K miles. Also I kind of wish I had stayed home today the roads were slick and Speed TV is replaying the 2011 Monaco F1 GP this afternoon. I wanted to go to that race this year till I found out that every hotel close to the course was sold out and those that weren't the room prices were in the $1,400 per night range for a basic room.
Josh are you going to the F1 race in Austin in November?

I've got the Type-S Aspec kit on order....should arrive sometime this week!
It was really hard finding a total kit though since Acura has now discontinued making this kit in my color (ASM). Now I just need to find someone who knows what the hell they are doing to put this thing on come Spring! ![Tomato](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/tomato.gif)
I've also been contemplating purchasing the Sarona roof spoiler as well. I'm 50/50 on it right now.
