Comfort, style, and looks. But it wasn't always this way. The Acura TL first and second generations are often forgotten, along with the 4th. The 3rd gen is the one we often see at car shows, but why is that? Today Alex goes through some of the history of the TL along with some things to watch out for. Reliable daily, or show car? You're the judge.

@Shalashaska016 4 роки тому
Use the hand brake hill start and or 2nd gear start. If you have issues rolling back use the hand brake to keep you from rolling and let off clutch while applying throttle and letting off hand brake. Cars can be started in 2nd gear as well they just take more time and effort for the clutch and engine to catch but prevents wheel spin and torque in less than desired driving conditions.
@tygiliberto8534 4 роки тому
Just use the handbrake an 1st gear...I would say no second gear since it sounds like your new to manuals. I live in San Francisco so I know hills. Second gear isn't going to work (atleast in a Acura Tl)

As an owner of a 2008 Acura TL I can definitely say that the exterior is an amazing feat of engineering. One thing I will say though if you really trying to Hot Rod the car it's going to take a lot of money and a lot of patience most of the modifications you will find is for the engine hardly any for the transmission and they do sell turbo and Supercharger kits for this car considering you have changed out internals in the engine any styling modifications the sky's the limit tbh if you are thinking of picking up this car please do yourself a favor and find the 2007 through 2008 Type S although rare in a little more expensive preferably with a manual transmission 👍

Had an 07 TSX myself. Love the RSX/Integras that came before hand as well. I still miss my 07 TSX to this day. One of the best cars I've ever owned in more than one category. Now I'm thinking of getting an 08 TL Type S, as they have aged so well like a fine wine. The third gen Acuras were the last truly great Acuras imo. They haven't looked as good since. The 4th gen TL's for example are much bulkier and even though are newer haven't aged as well as the 3rd gens. Even the brand new Acura's have a funny looking grill and just don't look as sporty as the third gen's.
@Joel19831013 4 роки тому
Ive owened several Acura TL. Starting with the early 2000 TL then i had 02,Several 3g TL and ive driven the 4g. Best choice is manual transmission 3g or 4g tl and they are very higly dependable cars. Only problems ive had was the common bluetooth module that eats up your battery in 2 days. Most expensive of course the timing belt service which should be replaced every 100k plus miles. Not too many boost options sadly. Its either the old comptec supercharger or custom turbo or finally the rotrex supercharger made by gerzand that i think its the best choice but it eliminates your cold ac :(.Engine tuning has gotten better since we now have Hondata and Ktuner!

I loved my black on black 99 TL! I lowered it with truhart springs and shocks. I put 3rd gen starfishes on it with 215/55/17 tires? Loooooooved it! But yes... after 4 years of beating it while doing all the maintenance early. It met its maker... trans went. And yes. I did service the trans. Yes I used oem fluids as I did work for Honda at the time.

@nabeelmohammed2781 3 роки тому
The second gen is the best cause it’s the lightest with the v6. Plus you can do a 6 Spd swap from a 3.2 CL type-s, meaning a 0-60 in 5.8 and good for 160+

My 08 TL was the best car purchase I will probably make, 160,000 miles problem-free. With the Buetooth touchscreen radio I put in, it still competed really well with the tech in todays cars. Definitely a bittersweet moment when I upgraded to the 2020 TLX

I sold my 2006 6-speed TL and I’ve regretted it ever since. It had 280k miles at the time I let it go and to that very last day I had it it was still the most reliable car I’ve ever owned. Got it from the first owner who put 230k miles on it and had every single piece of maintenance done at our local Acura dealership. 10/10 would recommend
