Fikid Sheisa!
well if you got an updated tranny from acura after a certain date, then im sure they dropped a new one in. it would be cool if you got an invoice or something with the parts they put in.

Well...what some one I think mentioned was that if you got a car that certified pre-owned (which mine was) that had the recall work.

It had this added to it as part of the service.

I don't have any invoices but I wonder if Acura could confirm...doubt it.

you might call acura or have them check it out for you or something. but the new stuff is supposed to adjust the shift points and make the tranny last longer.
so i dunno what you would rather have?

For sure...I'll call them because as of this point I am curious.

Good point though...what's better in all reality?

Not like I am speed racing!

i think your talking about the My Acura site. I think it just shows current recalls for your car. You could check it out guys. Its free, just go through the Acura site.

Quick question does anyone know what I can use to clean up my visors make them stand out more because they are looking a little faded? or should i talk to the wash and wax guys or go over to the Meguiars forum

Well...yeah.

That's something I would have to take into consideration..

But probably something I wouldn't have to think of if I went to 6MT.

hmm, that polish stuff works wonders on my hazy headlights. maybe try something called Plastix. its sold near the other polish stuff at autozone/kragens. and I think theres another polish or wax that supposed to bring back faded black. also on the same shelf.

Now, I am not going to lie here... I did drive down great highway at 110 MPH with a girl. I have no problems getting boobies, but its not bc I SOMETIMES gently touch the gas pedal. It's bc of who I am. BTW, that GF of mine who came with me to the meet in January hated it when I raced
