Larry, sorry for your bad luck/experience, but your transmission replacement certainly seems to be the exception. I recall seeing an occasional post complaining about the 9-5 tranny's, but they are few and far between. Mine has an occasional shifting (or lack thereof) hiccup, but overall, without a doubt the best performing slush box I've ever driven.
Even Consumer Reports gives the 1999, 2000, 2002, and 2003 transmissions "Very Good" reliability marks, and an "Excellent" mark for 2001 and 2004.
Enjoy the Acura, almost certain to be more reliable.
