very true. My fiance HAD a 2000 accord EX V6, but at 102k miles the tranny died. I replaced it with a tranny that supposedly had 24k miles on it, and it died 15k miles later... so I replaced the transmission and sold it again. The car wasnt worth but about $8k, so replacing a $1500 tranny once a year was a waste of money.... Honda has fixed this problem in the newer transmissions. 99-02 acura TL's and 01-02 CL's had similar problems. It had something to do with the differential and the bearings inside going bad and the metal shavings eating up the rest of the gears.
