2001 Acura CL S review from North America
"Love the car; loathe the transmission"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have an Acura CL-S. Fell in love with the car, and was still in love with it until today.
133k miles later and I am ready to be done with Acura. The transmission was replaced at 65k miles -- completely new trans from Acura (rare). Took it in for service yesterday and was told today that I need a new transmission, which @ 133k miles Acura won't cover. Why should I put a few thousand dollars into a car trans that is literally a ticking time bomb?!?
