I have a 2000 TL. I'm with the US Forces in Germany. My tranny went out on 15 June 02. It's 6 months later now and there still isn't a resolution eventhough a "Supervisor" has been assigned to look into it at HONDA USA in California. I haven't been offered another car to drive or anything. My German Honda dealer can't seem to get the parts for repair. I'm beginning to believe I have a $30000 ornament. International phone calls are being paid by me.:madfawk: :madfawk:
