2001 Acura CL Type-S review from North America
"Do not buy; bad tranny!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission 1 went at 36K miles.
Transmission 2 went at 98K miles.
Transmission 3 went at 168K miles.
Other things went bad, but the tranny is bad.. VERY BAD!
General comments?
Do not buy this car; they said they fixed the tranny problem, but they are wrong; I am on my 4th tranny!
