Drove it again after being in the Bahamas for a week and started to prep my car for an audio system by running all my wire. Next is fiberglass work, not looking forward to that mess.

Ran some wire in preparation for a sound system I'm installing shortly.



While I had the glovebox out I took the opportunity of putting in a new cabin filter.

Not exactly something you did to the 3G though, moreso something you did with it. 3rd to last picture is nice.

to add to my TL's activity today...picked her up from the dealer (acura only goodwilled half...better than nothing)....the afternoon shift of service advisors started giving me looks when i gave the TL a look over, and then pulled out the detail spray to remove the water splashes, paw prints from the tech, and brake fluid drops on the car BEFORE i left to make sure she came back out unscathed. i'm sure i got a few looks from the sales dept too. lol.

Even with there being a TSB they still charged you? Damn. I'm afraid of getting the back of the driver seat fixed now

from what i understand, acura corp is getting a little more stingy with good willing. i have a good relationship (7+ yrs of history and now on two cars purchased and getting serviced there) with my dealer and they did what they could to try and help me out. the total actually ended up being a lot lower than what mySA originally quoted me (by almost $100) for my portion. so i'm not complaining. my gripe with the TSB is that it came out in march of 2011 for all of the 04-08 MT TLs. by that time my car was well out of warranty. the TSB stated it was covered under normal warranty. the only thing you can do is ask. and depending on your relationship with your dealer...acura can make a decision from there. this is where having a service history can pay off a little bit.

Ah gotcha. Fortunately for me (I hope) when I purchased my car earlier this year it came with a 100k mile warranty that transfers to any new owners. Hopefully the dealer will be able to take care of me...considering I didn't buy it from them or have ever been to them. But like you said, all I can do is ask.
