Re: GOT MY HANDSFREELINK REPAIRED!!!!!! [udiaz75]
My 2006 Acura Tl bluetooth also stopped working. I researched and after hours and hours of research, I got the answer. Oemacuraparts has the bluetooth module for $185 including shipping and tax--its under the interior lighting section--TELEPHONE ASSY., HANDS FREE *NH528L* (MOON LAKE GRAY)--they also have the two other colors. They shipped me the part in 3 days---its the exact part and color of my current overhead console. I looked up ... Read More

Re: 2005 Acura TL - HFL Draw on Battery [brendcon]
I have the same issue described with my 2006 Acura TL. I am planning on using bulletin 05-020 to replace the HFL unit myself. This would be my first foray into messing with electronic components in a car. Am I correct in assuming I should disconnect the car's battery before opening up the roof console and replacing the HFL? Or is that overkill for this type of project?

2006 Acura TL under carriage squeaking
I have an Acura 2006 TL that has a squeaking noise evertime you step on the gas or brake. It appears to be something under the shift console. Possibly something like a stabalization bar or frame issue coming from the under carriage. Anyone else have this issue or have any suggestions?

Re: 2006 TL HFL not working & not covered by Warranty [kari524]
Thanks for your reply! I took my 2006 Acura TL for maintenace service on 10/22 and to my amazement they took care of my HFL without much hassle. I did agree to pay $50, since some of the other messages commented that they agreed to pay a minimal amount to ensure they have a warranty on the newly installed HFL.

Re: 2006 TL HFL not working & not covered by Warranty [naga2]

I called the dealer where I purchased it, brought it in and said I was not paying for it because it should be covered and they did not charge me. The dealer told me normally without the Warranty I would ... Read More

2006 TL HFL not working & not covered by Warranty
I brought my 2006 TL for A service on Saturday and to see why my HFL wasn't working. I was told it is not covered by warranty (I purchased the 100,000 extended warranty). I asked them how would I be able to break it and they said I can't, so I asked why isn't it covered by the extended warranty? They said the wording is in the small print of the ... Read More

My HFL died on me 2 days ago, and after reading the countless stories of other peoples identical issues, I too am disgusted with the situation.

Car's power resetting, sometimes completely dead
I have a 2006 Acura TL, I have noticed some power issues lately. The clock has been reset a couple of times over the past week. This morning, there was no power, and when I slammed the glove compartment shut, the power came on. I am pretty sure it's not the battery, maybe wiring or the computer? Thanks for any help.

My 2006 TL has had a reliable Bluetooth Handsfree Link system (HFL) for 4 years. I have been very pleased with the operation of the Bluetooth system.

I then performed a HFL system clear and a battery pull (hard reset) on the phone. Subsequent attempts ... Read More

Re: Check CR Reliability History Charts [smarty666]
Get your facts straight before you go bad mouthing an entire brand. To anyone else, if you get an Acura model 2006+, you'll have little to no worry about transmission issues. Very very reliable vehicles. I just turned 100K miles on my '05 TL and the only repair other than routine stuff was a recall for a temperature sensor. No other problems.

Re: Check CR Reliability History Charts [smarty666]

Next year we may hear about problems from 2007. Acura's customer service and ... Read More

Starting with the 2006 model years, the transmissions got above avg or much above avg ratings. If you look at the ... Read More

Acura TL - reverbrating noise in rear near speaker
I have an Acura TL 2006 w/ 20K miles and there has been a noise in the back where the speakers are since I got the car. I took it to Acura and they could not hear it at the time but replaced the speaker. It's not the speaker and worse. You can also hear the noise softly when stereo is off sometimes but more prominent when on. It makes a ... Read More

Re: rattling [njvike]
As far as I know, Acura DIDN'T make a 2006 TL Type S. 2007 was the first year in this body style. Previous TL type S was 2003. Did you mean a 2007? Spyderred.

Re: 2009 ACURA TL FWD or SHAWD? VERDICT......... [traumeri]
I did look at the 18"s. In fact we put them on and I test drove the shawd base wheels. While they looked sharp 2 things I noticed on my 18 mile test drive: road noise on the 245/45/R18's was measurably increased over the 17"s ride was stiffer and more bumps felt with the lower sidewall profile the thin spoke design shows a significant amount of rotor.. i dont like the ...

Re: How much would I save in next year? [lax29]
I bought my 2006 accord about $4000 off from MSRP when they had 2007 model in the market. Can I expect about the same price drop with 2009 TL next year? Or is it a whole different story with Acura?

2009 TL Prices
This is what I got from a Dealer in N. California. The saving should atleast double by Thanksgiving if you want 2009. I had purchased 2006 TL in Nov 2005. It was same story. I test drove both 2008 S & 2009 and my preference is 2009. My 2006 got totaled, so I am in market for a new one. 2009 Acura TL Base $35,715.00 MSRP (Window Sticker Price) $34,145.00* Sale ...

Re: [xpress] Northern California [newcar12]
Yes, that was for a new 2008. I'm shopping both Stevens Creek and Sunnyvale. You are thinking along the same lines as me. If a new 08' goes for $28k and change why can't I get a 2007 with less than 20k miles for $25K or less (or at least one with NAV)? I took a test drive last night at Sunnyvale and asked what about an 07' and the sales ... Read More

Re: TL Redesign Timing [pat]
there is and I have one, This is my third tl and I should have quit after 2. This car is very ordinary and honestly, its uncomfortble to drive, especially on a long trip. I have a 2006 Pathfinder and I will choose to take it on a trip over the tl anytime, even with the lousy gas mileage. Acura needs to step it up if they want to compete at ... Read More

Quality Issues
I own a 2006 TL with 25k on the odo. In March the car went to the dealer to have a shift interlock switch replaced. In May the battery failed and had to be replaced. Tonight while on a busy highway the trunk popped open, It looks like the latch has broken. It will go to the dealer tomorrow. I am extremely dissapointed in this car. I owned 3 Buicks prior ...

Re: Acura TL 2006 - Auto Climate Control [ajmtbm]
Yes. You can also use the "Mode" button to direct the airflow.

Re: Acura TL 2006 - Auto Climate Control [bodble2]
with the dual zone climate control, will the system direct airlow differently for the passenger and the driver based on temperature?

Re: Acura TL 2006 - Auto Climate Control [den2006tl]
I don't think that's normal. On mine, when I select AUTO, and when it is warm, the fan will come on full blast when the car is first started, and then slow down after awhile.

2006 TL Brembo Brake Problems
Our 06 TL is coming up on 18,000 miles and front brakes started to squeal for the first time. Had them checked at dealer and were told that was normal wear and had 1.5 mm left on pads. Dealer wants $360 to do front or $200 for Brembo pads only to do it yourself. I think I found them for $143 + S/H. It seems a good price considering. Rotors look ... Read More

TL Battery
Went out to start my 2006 TL the other day and the battery was dead. I called Acura road service and they were there within half hour. They told me to let the car run for 45 minutes to re-charge the battery. I did that. I then went to the mall, took care of business, and when I tried to start the car it was dead. Called Acura road service and ... Read More

looking for a new ride...
I’m looking for a new (to me) ride. I don’t have to decide just now, but probably sometime in the next couple of months. I thought I’d post this here as well as on the “help me decide” forum because this seems to be a very active discussion. Some of the cars I am considering do fit this category, so it’s not too much of a stretch. What I am considering ... Read More

Acura TL 2006 - Auto Climate Control
Page 125 of my Users Manual reads "The automatic climate control system adjusts the fan speed and airflow levels to maintain the interior temperature you select". When I select AUTO and select a desired temperature the fan speed DOES NOT operate. The only time the fan turns on is when I increase the temp to High, or decreases it to Low. My dealer tells me this is normal. Can anyone tell ... Read More

Just got a TL Type S in CA
I wrote a post to the TSX form a few years ago when I was buying my wife’s TSX. The title was “Lying, Cheating and Stealing”. Basically, I was purchasing in the DFW area and got several quotes from local dealers. The first gave me a quote but would not honor it when I got there (Lying); the second quoted me a price, but then said the quote did not include ... Read More

COMParing the 3.2 TL and the Current TL !!!!! HIGH HOPES for the 2009 TL
I am driving a 06 TL. It's got great style and class. I can take the girlfriend out on a Friday night with my 06 TL and yet drive my mother to Sunday Church. You know what I mean......the car is COOL for the ladies and comfortable for the family. I had a 2001 3.2 TL before and had driven it for years. The handling was great, smooth SMOOTH acceleration (feels ... Read More

Acura TL - Custom Stereo (for a 2006 model w/ Nav.)
I'm looking to have a custom stereo installed in my 2006 Acura TL w/ Nav. The existing system is great for stock, but not quite what I'm looking for. I was wondering if anyone has done this to their car and what suggestions / feedback you may have. I'm thinking of getting a 10" or 12" top of the line subwoofer w/amp (I would ideally like only 1 as opposed to ... Read More

Re: Acura TL 2008 or 2009 [upstatedoc]
The thing to do is to read up on the car - I've heard shared AWD, but that's about it - some people say hard drive, but it's hard to know what's reliable. Nevetheless, if you can figure out what changes are in the works, you can figure out whether it's worth the wait. 1 other option to toss out there. If you're concerned about new model year cars, you could ... Read More

2006 TL
I just picked up a 2006 TL (Private Party transaction) in Anchorage, AK. I mention that because we only have (1) Acura dealer in the state. That lack of competition seems to have inflated prices up here when compared to lower 48 pricing. You can buy in Seattle and ship up here but that usually adds at least another $1,000 to the cost of the vehicle. Here's what I got for ... Read More

Re: Acura TL w/ Nav - 33K [tritium]
This information may be dated, but hopefully it helps you out somewhat. I bought my 2006 Acura TL 5speed AT with Navigation brand new in June, 2006 for $32,750. Quite honestly, I may have been able to get a slightly better deal, but I had burned my bridges at all the other dealerships who blatantly tried to screw me. I did my homework, and based on the average price people in ... Read More

Re: Bad tires on my Acura TL 2006 [upstatedoc]
I've got Michelins on my 2006, 25k and they look pretty much brand new. If you don't rotate the tires regularly on any car the front tires will show excessive wear pretty quick.
-
Re: Bad tires on my Acura TL 2006 [esmondw]
Rotating the tires on my TL was the key to getting the most mileage out of them (michelins). Still, I think the most I got was 20k. The car eats tires. Some people have had good luck w/ other brands. Search the TL forum for "replacement tires". I don't believe the oem tires have a warranty on them, so michelin probably won't be sympathetic.
