Going from a TL to a TSX

Written by: greenacura on Apr 10, 2009 04:44 AM

Has anyone gone from a TL to a TSX? I have owned 3 Tls ('00, '04 & currently '07). I am thinking of leasing the 2009 TSX with the tech package. I don't like the look of the new TL but the 2009 TSX reminds me of my current TL. On the test drive, it seems to be fine, maybe even a bit more peppy than the TL and lower speeds. I am thinking of pulling the trigger but I don't want to regret ... Read More...

2 questions. 2007 Accord I4 MT The Honda manual says to only use Honda antifreeze. I don't believe this to be true, but what type does it take - the regular yellow green stuff or the long life red. I think I remember that they are not compatible. Also has anybody had problems with the windows chattering when they are going up or down. Mostly in warmer weather for me. ... Read More...

Re: Altima 2006, 2007 or 2008? maybe Accord? [whitall]

You can buy a brand new Honda Fit or Scion in that price range. New car warranty, latest safety and lots of add-on accessories to customize the car. By the time you add wheels and tires to an altima you can trick out a new Fit [my choice] but don't know your son's taste. And yours as well. By the way, is dad footing the bill? Read More...

A few other things I forgot to mention in my previous posting... A lot of late-model Altima 2.5S models are former rental/fleet cars. You don't want to end up with one that's been abused, so it's best to steer clear of them. Honda doesn't sell to rental fleets, but it's still a good idea to pull a Carfax on any car before you buy it! Besides the Altima and Accord, have ... Read More...

The '07-'08 Altima and the '06-'07 Accord both have 5-star Frontal crash ratings and 4-5 stars in all other categories. The '06 Altima also has a 5-star Frontal rating, but side impact is only 3-stars. According to Consumer Reports, the '07 Altima is more reliable than the '06, despite being the first year for the redesigned model. The '06/'07 Accord have the ... Read More...

RE: 2008 Accord EX-L w/NAV

Written by: bxteach on Apr 05, 2009 03:56 PM

One day after making this deal, I feel like I didn't do as well as I should have. Honestly, I didn't do any negotiating, so I think it's partly my fault. Edmunds-2009 EX-L w/NAV 26,593 (invoice w/ dest)- $1,000 incentive = $25,593. I got a 2008 EX-L w/NAV (BLACK ON BLACK) = $24,000 I'm sure I could have done something, but I didn't move. The price got me in the door and ... Read More...

2008 Accord- Peeling paint

Written by: accordguy0325 on Mar 10, 2009 03:12 PM

I purchased my 2008 Accord coupe (San Marino Red) in October of 2007 upon its release and thus far its been trouble free (sans a minor interior rattle)... I just discovered that it's paint is peeling around the edges of the tail-lights (on the bottom of the tail-light on the plastic bumper- and on the edge of the tail-lamp going up the side on the metal). I have waxed ... Read More...

I had SB 08-020 applied to my 2007 Honda Accord EX-L V-6. While it no longer grinds into 3rd gear or pop out of gear once engaged, there is still alot of resistance/notchiness when shifting into 3rd gear from 2nd. The service bulletin claims it's "normal", which of course, is a load of crap. Honda has essentially come up with a band-aid solution for am improperly ... Read More...

I don't have a clue. Most things I've heard around here are positive with the USA Spec. I don't think anyone has posted about Dice until you brought it up. I guess it depends on what features you need or don't mind losing. Good luck! Read More...
