Hi Acurazine
I'm obviously brand new to the Forums as member but i have actually just been lurking in the shadows for quite a while. Most answers to questions i have found by searching which is why i have never felt the need to become a member. But I am currently having an issue i cannot find a clear answer for.
I have a 2006 Acura TL with a Manual Transmission and out of the blue the subframe and control arm broke. I was making a quick lane change on the street when it snapped. The car slid halfway down a block. I was only doing about 30 mph. Anyway I thought it was just the Passenger side control arm but a mechanic told me the subframe was cracked also.
My issue now is through my searches, I have found different information about which part will actually fit my car. I have seen a diagram on another thread here that shows all 04-06 Automatic and Manual Transmission TLs share the same part number. But I have also seen that the 06 has different part numbers
50200-SEP-A03 is the one i was looking for before i found out there was differences
50200-SEP-A11 is one that i later found out MAY actually be the one for my car...
If i go to dchautomotiveparts.com and put the A11 part number it shows up and is availiable for the 2006 only
But If I go to Acuraoemparts.com and put that part number it says discontinued..
And to top this all off I dont know if the 50200-SEP-A03 part will indeed fit which just a repositioning of the motor mounts or something else minor. I think ive read something to that effect in this forum as well.
If thats the case i would rather save a couple hundred in shipping and grab one from any 04-06 TL
If anyone has any knowledge, insight, previous experience, ideas, anything to point me in the right direction will you please help a brother out?
