Roman:

Sorry to hear about your problems. Unfortunately, I'm in the same boat. I've got an 03CL-S manual that had given me clutch/tranny issues intermittently for almost 30K miles. I took it to the dealership I bought it from shortly after the issue arose, and they fed me some bull about a leaky engine mount which they "replaced". When I took it to another dealer for regular maintenance (I just moved and they were closer), they mentioned that they noticed a clutch issue. When I showed them the service order from previously, they almost blew a gasket laughing about the rip. That said, they werem't willing to touch it under warranty in spite of the pre-existing condition, and strongly urged me to take it back to the original dealer. Well, I made an appointment for the car to be serviced while I was away on business. Because the dealer is over an hour from my new house, my wife and kids were going to follow me in their vehicle, as I drove mine to the dealership. Well, the clutch failed catastrophically en route (bear in mind, I only have 60-some-K miles on it). After dealing with an incompetent Acura TLC CSR, I finally got the vehicle towed to the dealer, who told me that the clutch needed replacing, along with a seal and a few other things -- all for a grand total of over $1700, and that none of it would be covered under warranty. This is after a number of other repairs had to be performed prematurely on the vehicle -- steering column replacement, radio replacement, seat heater switch replacement, hose premature failure, etcetcetc

I've checked a couple of other HA forums, and there does seem to be a relatively common thread of clutch issues inthe 03CLs which MAY carry over to the 04TLs, but Acura USA Customer Care (My wife just spoke with them) doesn't give a darn...

After 4 Hondas and Acuras, I am saddened to say that this may be the last I buy.
