Ok so I brought my TSX for an alignment only to receive a call later saying that their computer doesn't have the specs for an 07 TSX. Wouldn't they be the same for an 06 as they are virtually the same exact model?

I called a different dealer today and brought up this point and they said the specs are the same as an 06. Did the 1st dealer bs me or is this other dealer wrong?


On another note, I did some research and came to the conclusion that my loose steering wheel is the result of "tramlining" I don't really want to feel every nook and cranny of the road, what are some available adjustments that you guys have done in the past?

Which wheels/tyres you running?
The Silver Stars (Pentas) are known to be a tramliner.
As for the 1st dealer - taking out of his arse. He could've contacted Acura and asked, presuming he doesn't have the info, which I'd find strange.
Also, check your tyre pressures - this can exacerbate the tramlining.

I have the OEM tires for 07.
Anyone else know about the specs for sure? Im scheduled to bring it in Monday to another dealer.

I don't know exactly if they changed the tires for 07, if they are the same shitty michelin mxm4's that the 04-06 TSX's have. The alignment specs should be dead on the same since they havnt actually changed any mechanical specs in the suspension. Just tell them to use the 2006 specs and you should be fine. Its the same car with TPMS, which shouldnt change anything. I'd be confident in saying use 2006 specs, it should be no different.

My Acura dealer just called and said that the alignment specs are fine. In that case, what can I do to reduce the "tramlining" feel?

Pressure first, then tyre change if no different/better. Some combinations of tyre and the Silver Stars are tramliners.
