Used 2003 Acura TL Sedan Consumer Reviews
Solid, fun car but needs passion
I like this car a lot. As I look at individual features it meets or beats its competitors - especially if you throw in the price. But I wish this car inspired a little more passion when you put it all together. Style is too bland given all of its power.
Very Pleased
I bought my 03 TL used with 61k miles. The car belonged to a coworker who traded in in on a new one. The car had a full history of all service work performed,done only at the selling dealership. At 67k, I had the brakes replaced. At 70k, I noticed a whine in the transmission and took it to the dealership. The Service Mgr. rode with me to check it out and decided to keep the car for evaluation. He called back 4 hours later and said that Acura and the dealership were going to replace the tranny at no cost to me. Very pleased. I get 22/23 mpg in town and 32 mpg on the road. This is an excellent car.

Love my TL.
After two months and 4,000 miles I can say that I'm very happy with my Acura TL - traded in my trusty Accord and have not regretted it for an instant. The acceleration is unbelievable. Gas mileage is much better than I thought it would be on the LA freeways (lots of stop and go traffic). One problem so far: power steering reservoir needed replacing after only 3,400 miles - cracked, leaked and the holding clip came apart and rubbed against the fan belt (loud buzzing noise is what drew my attention). Hmmmm.....hope this is not an omen of things to come.
what the dealer does not tell you untill
What the dealer does not tell you is that the TL and The TLs models do not interchange. Tires will not exchange and neither will the upgraded struts and you cannot cannot install a stabilizer bar. I found this out the following week and tried to upgrade to the TLS and they wanted a 10,000 dollar difference. Bottom line is You do not want the TL only the TLS!
