Bought my 2003 TLS w/Nav 4/1/03. 10,000 on the clock now. No problems yet. About 21 mpg driving on the L.A. freeways. I've a 1999 BMW 740IL & a 1996 Suburu SVX. I prefer driving the Acura!

2002 Noble Green TL-S w/Nav (stock)
25,055 miles - no problems what so ever (no warped rotors, no squeaky sunroof, stock tires still look very good) - mainly driven on highway - Change oil (AMSOIL 5w-20) every 5K - changed tranny fluid at 15k (and will do every 15k) - rotate tires every 5k - 33.5 mpg twice - glad I got the Nav - still fun to drive!

Three Wheelin'
2002 TL-P
first hit the road on 10-3-91
Has 44,500 miles on it now.
Had new tranny put in at 32k miles. warped rotrs replaced along with pads at 12k miles. Started mild shaking again while braking beginning at 27k miles, finally said enough is enough at 39k and put on Bremo plain (non x-drilled) rotors and Hawk performance pads from Tirerack.com.
Had all the rattles, and creaks everyone else has posted about. Fixed all of 'em but the creaking dash up near the driver's side of the front window. Will have to pull the whole dash off the firewall to get to the bottom of it.
All in all, a very disappointing purchase for an even $30k (including tax, title, etc).
Will not be buying another Acura product in the future.

DOB: June 6, 2003 
Miles: 3200
MPG: 22 mix driving. 25 Hwy (after installing K&N filter)
Running great, a couple of minor (in my view) problems, sunroof rattles at 60 to 65 mph will check on first check up, Driver's seat makes a noise when I accelerate from start, I saw an explanation of this problem here in a forum, will see if they know how to fix it .
All in all good.

2003 TL-S SSM
DOD: 4/3/02
Now has 34,000 miles
Was in shop/dealer since Friday for warped rotors and new front brake pads, on my 3rd CD player/stereo... is it usual for you to pay 200 dollars for the warped rotors and front brake pads?
