Sedans Acura TSX Acura TSX Clutch Problems

It appears that my transmission or clutch blew out with less than 9K on the car. Has anybody experienced similar problems? Does anyone have any suggestions what I should do with the car or what the dealer should do? I have been generally happy with my TSX until now. It is quite embarassing to have your new 2004 car literally drop dead in the middle of an intersection and later have your car hauled back to the dealership on the back of a flatbed. Any comments or suggestions are welcome |

Hillside Acura Service in Bayshore, NY called today and confirmed that it was blown clutch. They told me that the WILL NOT cover the repair at ALL. They said that obviously the clutch was blown by a long period of shifting neglect. Never mind that this is the third stickshift that I have had over the years and the car was taken for scheduled maintenance in October and checked out fine. This is totally UNBELIEVABLE. I am so angry at this point that I could strangle someone. |

| Don't strangle anyone! I'm not telling you what to do, but I have 130,000 miles on my old car's clutch and transmission and if they pulled this one on me, I'd call a lawyer first thing! | |

I talked a district manager at Acura Customer Care who instructed the dealership to fix the problem under the warranty. The service manager said the car should be ready in about a week.Thank you for all the input and support. |

| your dealer has some nerve pulling that crap with you. | |

| Anyone have an audible click when they depress their clutch? Last night I drove for the first time without my radio on and noticed it - so I'm not sure if this has been happening all along. | |
| Did I miss any subsequent posts from the person on this forum who had the clutch go out at 9 or 10,000 miles? Just curious about his experience and cost. | |
I've had my '04 TSX since last jan. and it has about 16,000 miles on it. last week, my clutch started to stick and when i took it into the dealer this morning, they said it could be "wear and tear" or a manufacturer's defect but it needs to be replaced either way...has anyone else had their clutch go out after 1yr/16000 miles???
