😔 So i have an Automatic 2010 Accord Sedan with a 3.5 V6 but the engine blew. Would an 2008 Acura TL Type-S with a 3.5 V6, mount properly in my accord? Also would it mount to my Transmission? And if I'd need to anything to make it work, what would?

is it an automatic or manual?

#

as far as I know, you won't be able to do that since the transmission for the automatic at least is probably completely different, the housings are.

#

if you share the same tranny as the 3.7 from the 2010 tl then maybe you could switch it

#

if you have an automatic your tranny code might be either B90A or B97A, with the B97A you might be able to drop in the 3.5 from the 09-24 TL (NON SH-AWD) or the TSX V-6. It'll be 280HP vs your 268 rn.

And this is my trans, I mirror flipped the pic so that I can see if the holes match up and it looks like it does

#

Btw this is a pic of a trans that I found on eBay but it’s the same as the one in my car

More than likely, there should be a sticker with a code on it, that’s your transmission code

#

Look at it facing the front when it’s mounted in the car and I believe it should be near the right hand side front

#

You’re probably also looking at a new ECU. I’m not 100% on the ECU comparability.

#

OP, I’m sure the trans will bolt up fine. If there are any changes to the trans between the years I bet there are minute. With that being said the ECU may or may not work with it.

This seems to be a good question for a Honda/Acura Forum
