Default About to buy a used 6....quick question

First post - and BTW, awesome site.

I'm thinking about buying a 2003 6i. I really liked to car upon a test drive, but I do have one worry. I owned a 2001 Acura CL, with a transmission similar to the 4AT on this car. I know that on the 5AT with sport shift in the CL there was an engineering problem in which 2nd gear would overheat, and the trans would fail. Has there been any problems such as this with the 4AT with sport shift in the 6?

Also, anyone who could shed any light on other problems with the 03 6i would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance...

I have the same engine/trans that Greg Christian has, and I also have had no problems whatsoever, with ~46500 miles on the odo. Good luck,

David
