2000 Acura TL review from North America
"Good car, bad transmissions!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission went out at 121k.
Broken motor mount.
General comments?
It is a nice car and has all the comforts, but the transmission has issues. I got two different quotes on transmission replacements. 3,200 Acura dealer. 2,700 private shop. I got a guy in Alabama; he fixed it for 300.00, it was some kind of solenoid.
