#751 of 788 alternator problem? by YuZhu Jan 24, 2009 (2:15 am)
I bought a legend 91 recently. It runs smoothly and the car condition is good. I do change the oil, transmission fluid, brake pad and disk when I purchased it. However, it stopped before a red lamp today and then can not start again. The car fully lost its electricity. My friend came and use his battery charged my one. Then we can start it and drive it back home. It looks like the alternator's problem because the battery lamp is red for a few minutes before we get stacked at a red lamp. Anyone has idea of the repairing cost? Could it be any other problem? many thanks in advance. Replies to this message: kayarbro (Jan 25, 2009 7:52 am)

Replying to: YuZhu (Jan 24, 2009 2:15 am) I would look at both the battery and alternator in that order. OTC car parts places like Pep Boys or Kragen can test both. Start with the battery. It may not be producing the cranking amps it needs and it's the cheaper of the two fixes.
#753 of 788 1995 Acura Legend by van47 Feb 05, 2009 (7:27 pm)
I'm thinking about purchasing a 1995 Acura Legend Gs with 165,000 miles for $4000. What problems should I look for before buying? Is $4000 too much to pay for it?   Thanks.
#755 of 788 Acura Legend repair costs by lhy Feb 18, 2009 (3:57 am)
Hi everybody:   I am looking at possibly buying a used 1993 or 1995 Legend and was wondering what repair costs in general are like. Are they considered high, average, or low in general?   I have heard that Acuras in general are fairly expensive to repair. Replies to this message: my92 (Feb 18, 2009 8:12 am)

Replying to: lhy (Feb 18, 2009 3:57 am) Hi, I have not had to pay any excessive repair bills on my 1992 Legend, just normal maintenance bills, however I only have approx. 50,000 total miles since new. It is garaged all the time. Only driven on nice days. It is a real driver. I am always amazed how far advanced in design and performance the 1992 Acura was compared to the US built cars.
#757 of 788 Type of gas that 1993 Legend should use by lhy Mar 04, 2009 (3:36 am)
Hello:   I am considering buying a 1993 Acura Legend 4D sedan. Is it true that this car can only use premium gasoline?   What will happen if I just use regular unleaded gas in it?

Replying to: lhy (Mar 04, 2009 3:36 am) Gas will cost you a bit more if you use regular.   The Legend is so well set up that (in my case at least) I get about 10% better mileage with premium, while it costs about 6% more than regular. And, of course, since the price differential between regular and premium remains pretty rigid at ~$0.20/gal., the more expensive gas gets, the smaller the percentage in price difference.   Plus, it's a WHOLE LOT more fun to drive on premium, as the engine is high-compression and the computer has to compensate for regular.   Good luck, and have fun. Caution to the winds!   If it doesn't work out for you as it does for me, change. But you're better off with premium.

Replying to: lhy (Mar 04, 2009 3:36 am) With my 92 Legend I use both. but, if I want maximum preformance and power it runs best on Premium fuel. For the difference in cost, the car will just run much better I find. But, I do not my car as an every day driver, only nice sunny days.
#760 of 788 Re: Yellow ABS Warning Light [hawks1] by jimsmith5637 Mar 27, 2009 (11:42 pm)
Replying to: hawks1 (Nov 02, 2005 12:48 pm) I have a 1990 Legend also that had the ABS warning light come on only after I would break a while. I found that replacing the relay in the under the hood fuse box on the driver side did the trick. Later the motor on the ABS motor became noisy and I also replaced it. GOOD LUCK hawks 1.
