I drive a lot of car and I can say the Acura TL 3G is one of the best car i drove!

Is the car a long life car!? I mean that you can drive a lot of miles?
How much miles di you drive?
i donīt know of other driver becaue in Germany only 6 person drive a Acura TL 3G

 

Only 6 people in all of Germany? How did you find that out?

It's a honda product so yes, the car is a "long life car" if you take care of it. The auto trans is probably the weakest point on the car but even then, there's a few high 200K's and low 300K's that have made it on their original transmission.

You can pretty much be assured that 95% of scrapped 3G TL's were in an accident yet have perfectly functioning engines, electronics and probably even transmissions.

 

I'm at 285k on mine and still going like a champ!

 

^ Impressive!

 

Nice! What year is your car? Also, have you had any problems?

 

I have ~153K on mine.

 

Sorry i mean only drive 10 Acura in Germany!
TL very very rare i know on two other driver who drive an TL and one of them come from Poland
We have only Honda in Germany with small Engine with 2.4i 210 PS

By my Acura is the transmission damage by 69000 miles

Thank you all for your answer
and I Love my Acura, I find him better then BMW

 

I believe there's a Swiss TL owner as well somewhere on Azine

 

Honda/Acuras go forever if you maintain them well.

The TL needs transmission care. Here's some information:

Cheers! Tschus!

 

thank you

Can be but Swiss is not Germany

 

130k on mine. Got it at 30k

 

There are a few different highest mileage type topics on here that could give you an idea of what the car is capable of. Aside from the '04-'06 transmission, which seems to be hit or miss, it seems like it is a pretty good car for the long run if maintained.

Maybe by the time it finally does die Acura will figure their stuff out.

 

Just curious, but how is this one of the best cars you've owned if the transmission died before 70,000 miles? My previous car was a Cavalier and it was going strong at 130,000 before I totalled it. Most expensive thing I ever replaced on it in 8 years were the struts for about $300.

 

This is from a while back but no major issues with the car.

I've done my regular oil changes and drain and fills on the trans. I just started running Amsoil 5w20 with Amsoil EAO filter, up until now I've been running Mobil super 5000, formerly Mobil 5000 with Mobil 110 filter. I ran honda ATF Z1 up until it became unavailable and now running Eneos multi vehicle synthetic ATF.

Works great for me!

If replaced normal wear and tear items, seats, trim, carpet, brakes, rotors, wheel bearings, timing belt 2 times, ac compressor but no failures.

I've only had one really annoying problem, when it rains, it seems my car alarm seems to go off for no reason! I typically reset the alarm via the key in the door lock and it will be fine for months.

I am very happy with this car but I'm thinking of getting a 4th gen!

 

177k on my 6mt. Original clutch.

 

Wow, Germany!

Welcome to AcuraZine Meacura.

 

That's awesome to know there's TL's in Europe!! Do lots of folks comment on it and ask you about it since they are so rare over there?

 

It's good to see some international members on the site. Welcome! I've been to Germany a few times. Beautiful country.

 

I got 82K on mine and bought it when it was 71K last January. Loving it! The ride quality is just right on the money IMO.

OP do you happened to see a 07-08 TL type S color white with New Jersey plate roaming on the autobahn? he is in the military also one of our member here. BTW my milage is now at 66666.

 

This is priceless. May I use this in my sig line?

 

I was just watching a drugs inc episode on grand theft auto, ever thought your car was stolen somehow imported to Europe? :P

 

Yes you can do!

 

A US-Soldier?

 

it's still available...it's just called ATF DW-1 now....

 

Yup, USMC (Mariner) to be correct, oh BTW that white TL-S is MT too. let me see if I can pull the video up from youtube.

 

ok nice to know

 

USMC Marine to be correct

 

And when it changed names it also changed base oils, viscosity, and additive package.

 

80k on mine. Bought it in January. Ive only put 1k on it.

 

No, you won't catch me putting DW1 in my trans. It's not the same.
