Manual Transmission problems of the 2003 Acura CL

My 2003 Acura Cl-type s manual 6 speed is also having similar problems as the other owners with change in pedal pressure and difficulty shifting in cold weather, sometimes with gears grinding and it is unavoidable unless you put the vehicle in neutral and come to a complete stop and start from 1st gear again,reverse is also a issue, sometimes it wont go in at all, I have been to the Acura dealerships to purchase the new tranny sensors which are not cheap but the problem still persists. I was driving on the freeway conditions were normal, nothing unusual and my transmission totally locked on 3rd gear, luckily I or anybody else was hurt. My front drivers side fender was damaged because I had to maneuver vehicle out of freeway traffic to avoid a major collision. Also front bumper needs some repair and repainting.

Issue with 6 speed standard transmission. While cold difficulty upshifting into 2nd gear with occasional gear grinding. Clutch and 2nd gear syncros replaced, but the problem persists. Acura maintains that this difficulty is normal performance.

Manual trans/clutch - looses hydraulic pressure in low air temps and when car is sitting on a hill. Hard to shift only in 1st into 2nd gear. There were very few Acura 2002/2003 Cl 3. 2 type ss made, so even a couple complaints should warrant a review. I found numerous forums with owners complaining and asking for help from others on this problem. I've driven manual trans cars and trucks for 22 yrs to include one Honda that still had the original Clutch at 225k miles, so it is not a driver related problem. All the focus has been on the auto transmissions for this car. . . That failed. Acura has a problem that needs to be addressed before someone get seriously hurt, when they try to shift into second when crossing a busy street and cant. It has happened to me and I just got lucky.
