oh, and i also told him im aware im going to have the 3rd gear problem, and he looked at me funny.. i said ya theres a tsb coming out for it soon, the problem is infamous, and he said "ok.." in a way thats like "if you say so"..

dont you hate how you cant talk with salesman about cars? i dont know much about cars, and i still notice..


I got the same reaction at Sisley Honda yesterday, the guy told me hes never heard of the trany problems .... (ya right) and that the rev hang issue was not a problem, do ur research before u buy the car, go to 10 dealers if u have to. just find one that knows theres a trany problem....
