| I had a computer problem in my car (acura integra 2001) and i went to the acura of avon dealership to have it looked at. they told me that the computer needed to be replaced and the idling valve. i had the work done. then, i had several additional problems that started occurring with the car, including a failed transmission. the car only has 49, 515 miles on it. for all of these problems to be occurring with a car that is only 4 1/2 years old, in excellent condition, and such low mileage, is quite shocking. *nm | |||
