This lettering makes my TL stereo install look a little more OEM.

I found these puppies at an auto parts store while vacationing in Bangkok,Thailand of all places!

Side Note: It's so sad how every poor S.O.B. that buys an Acura from 10 years ago or less really can't really customize and install an aftermarket DIN size stereo. Your ears have to take what Honda audio engineers decide upon and like it 😥.

Any idea Acura heads what I’ll end up making NA with a good tune before slapping Gerzy supercharger? This is for my 2010 TL 6 speed. Been building this for around 4 years almost and will be back on the road in a few months. Here’s most of its parts list.

So one day my ac stopped working and I used to have to slap the bottom of my glove department to make my ac cut on so I assumed it was my blower motor but before I purchased a replacement my ac stopped working completely and the slap method wasn’t working anymore so eventually I purchase the motor but before I installed it I tried turning on my ac again just to being curious and seeing what it would do instead I gotta battery light on my dash that won’t go away alternator and battery is working fine and has correct voltage so I’m really confused on wtf is wrong I replaced the motor anyways but still no ac and still have this battery light

I’m getting new insurance, how bad is $150 a month for liability? I‘m 22, have 1 ticket for 65 mph on a highway. My daily commute is Route 210 and 228 in Maryland, which if you’re familiar then you already know how that goes.

2007 Base 3.2

Update: It went up to $263 after entering VIN and DL...damn

Are my rpms fluttering? I’ve heard that this happens with these cars and honestly I don’t know or have anyone to check for me. I decided to drive around and record to ask for help from yall. Please let me know

So for those who hadn’t seen the post at https://www.reddit.com/r/shouldibuythiscar/s/IDGK1Y4VH5 basically I was contemplating buying this 2004 Acura TL for $1200. When I met up with the guy, I talked him down to $700. The oil dipstick was broken so we opened the oil cap and it looked like chocolate milk(head gasket) so we bought it for $700. Opened the dipstick today and found no chocolate milk. The car started up just fine and there was no white smoke that came out. The check engine light also went away. When you close and tighten the gas cap, you’re supposed to turn it at least 3 clicks or the CEL will come on. When I bought it, it wasn’t in the same position as those 3 clicks(possibly triggering the CEL). Came up just nicely on this purchase.

Is this a good time for a stock, 2008 base model tl?

My tweeters and rear speakers aren't working. Everything appears to be plugged in but I'm not sure what's happening. 2008 type s

Hello guys, this is probably my third post here now.

About 5 months ago you guys gave me the nod to purchase a higher mileage 08 Type S (above, PFA) The car has been an absolute dream for me in terms of reliability and functionality. There has been another one posted in my area that I am going to look at tomorrow or some time this weekend.

This is another “miley” example at 207,000 but the car is in even better shape than mine was. The only hangup for me is mine had a crate transmission put in it 40,000 miles before I bought it, and the car I’m looking at is on its original still.

With the current physical condition of the car and the guy’s transparency with answering my questions, I feel like there’s a high probability this car has been taken care of just as well as the seller claims.

My MAIN QUESTION is, how much longer can I expect out of the original transmission of this vehicle? Of course I am going to test drive it. Even if all is well, am I still on borrowed time? I know the Type S transmissions were built a little better than the first few years of production, but just HOW much better are they?

Any and all input welcome!
TIA

guess how much i picked up this genuine oem 04 acura tl a spec kit

Anyone have this? Curious what your thoughts are on it. Wonder if there any kind of resonance off the j pipe or issues with fitment?

So I’ve been looking at two TLs and can’t decide. First one is a 2005 Special Edition 6MT, 240k miles, negotiated down to $3800, seller has a USB with all the service records, timing belt done recently, says it runs and drives flawlessly with no lights or sounds. Second is a 2008 3.2 automatic, 313k miles, $2500, no rust, timing belt done at 235k, new brakes/struts/tires/wheel bearing.

Is the extra $1300 worth it for the SE 6MT or just grab the cheaper auto and call it a day?

2005 TL 102k miles. I noticed that the ac was working intermittently all day. It Blew cold then warm air on and off. Then suddenly it blew all warm air. My initial thought is my Freon is low. Went to a local guy that recharges Freon and tells me that my Freon wasn’t low. The A/C compressor still didn’t kick on. How could I trouble shoot to verify that the ac compressor is indeed the issue? I’ve checked switched out the relay by the intake but that seemed fine. Thanks in advance!
