For Keeps
I bought this car ('99 3.2 Acura TL with navigation) really out of luck. I was looking for reliable vehicle as I drive up and down the coast (400 miles) almost every month. My experience with this vehicle has always been a possitive one. It's easy to maintain. Since the time I bought this car, the only maintenance I had to do was the usual oil change, break/tire change and the required 100k timing belt.
Almost 110k miles, still running new.
I have had 2 problems with this car in it's 110k mile life so far. After 65k miles the transmission went. They told me that the tiptronic was causing the problem and not to use it all that often. At 89k miles the Traction control went. They fixed both under warranty for me even though it was over the mileage limit.
Great Car
Great driving car, smooth, super quiet, good power. 33 mpg on highway. Only thing I'd change is the instrumentation displays on the dashboard, can't read them when sun is shinning which can be dangerous when doors are ajar. etc.
after 175,000 miles
After 175,000 miles there have been some problems:- Auto dim review mirror died early on.- EGR system cost $300 to fix a valve that was later redesigned- Plenty of rattles behind dash & sunroof.- Nav computer needs further refinements.- HID light died. Major $$$ to fix- Alarm system goes off often when starting.On the plus side,- The car has not yet left me on the side of the road. Original sparkplugs and timing belt.
Over 100K miles and going for 200k!
I got is used in 2003 with 75K mis on it, now with almost 110k mis. Just put gas and drive, not much maintenance! Only changed A/C compressor at 100k mis. Acura and Honda owner for life!!!!!
