Acura TL Service Manual

Whats up everyone. I just purchased the TL Service Manual CD. Comes with Full PDF of the manual with clickable links on the table of contents. It was only $30 on ebay from a company who copies the Acura manuals, but if anyone can help me upload it to a media sharing site I'm sure we would all benefit from it. Moderators should sticky this once I can get the file up for download.

Ok here it is

http://www.mediafire.com/download/lm...cura_TL_SM.pdf

Let me know if it can't be accessed. Mods can move this to garage...which needs to be stickied at the top of the 4G TL page because I find it to be a pain in the ass to get to. The DIY section needs its own sticky aswell. Every other forum I've been on was pretty easy to get to...just saying. Anyway ENJOY

I'll try and edit it to say 09-10 but in all honesty its pretty much the same. Especially for anything any of us will attempt to do. Engine or tranny work...I wouldnt be worrying about service manuals. LOL more like I hope it's still under warranty

I don't do much involved service, so I won't use it for that.

But what I like is how the manual explains how somethings works... like the torque converter lockup logic. Also the diagrams...

Thanks again.

Keep bumping it up if you download. Pass it forward to future TL owners. Our DIY section is pathetic compared to other forums.

Passed it on to 2 other SH-AWD owners. 99.99 of the owners never look at this forum and generally that is a good thing. Sad but true.

Sorry I don't know if anyone has copied the 2012...this is my own copy. Everything except for engine and tranny should be the same though.

Thanks for this great share! 2012 owner's beware: there are many more differences than just the engine and transmission. There are wiring differences that threw me for a loop for a while. See here for an example.

I didnt think anyone would attempt wiring/engine/transmission stuff themselves on a 2012+ but hope it helps with other jobs
