Transmission problem
1997 Acura RL 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic 250k miles

I have 1997 Acura RL 3.5 . I was driving yesterday and went to stop at the stop sign. The car Stopped but wouldn't go any more. The car will start up with no problem but once put into gear (P.D.N.R.D3.D4) The car begans making a loud sqilling sound. I'm thinking its the transmission ..My question is do I have to replace the whole transmission or can it be repaired ?[img:97bc9c2828]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/326521_SSPX0187_1.jpg[/img:97bc9c2828]

That would really depend on what is wrong with it.If it is something like an axle,it will be an easy fix, but if something internal broke in the trans, you are looking at a rebuild or another trans
