Type S tranny into a Av6 accord 98
You guys always have the right answers, so heres something new. My cousin's tranny has the simtums that ahows its about to go. I was wondering if he could just drop a Acura Type S tranny in. Is their any complications in doing this, or does he just drop it right it. It's a automatic transmission.

Probably wiser to buy a used TL-S though.

TL-S trannies are no better than the Accord trannies. Mine went out after 42k, and was just replaced. The TL-S was soon replaced with a 2003 540i soon after as well. Honda is doing a bad job handling the tranny issue. Recall em all, not just the MDX, Odyssey's and Pilots.
