I tried to start my car yesterday and it cranked for about 8 seconds and it didn't turn over. It happened again today. I assume its the fuel injection fluid they added at the 7500 mi service, but they quickly denied it. It sucks and it can't be the gas because I used the same gas for the whole life of the TL. I can't believe that the Acura is doing this to me. Also, my window is making a creaking noise everytime I roll it up. What the hell is going on??
On a lighter note, does anyone have suggestions on the spray tint for the rear tails and the caliper paint. Are these easy to do? look good? other suggestions, comments? Sorry fot eh long post and Thanks a bundle!!

I wouldn't tint the taillights... First, it's not easy to do right, second, read this first and see if it's worth it:

Hey RED, it is great to finally hear from my fellow teenager! It is great to have you back. I wonder if it is worth it to have the tinted tails? Anyone know about the engine problems?

here's a pic of the tinted tail on his Legend. It doesn't look bad at all and it was done almost 2 years ago. This picture is crap, it's a scan of a color printout on a cheap printer.

 

The spray tint is VERY hard to use. It is hard to get it even. Even if it looks good, wait until you step on the brakes, you will see unever drip lines everywhere. You should look for the kind that you can peel off if you mess up.

As for caliper paint, I thought about doing it but I didn't because I don't think it will look right on the TL.

make sure it's not your key. If the immobilizer doesn't reconize the key, he engine will turn but not start.
