All I can say is that the manual shows the difference in US maintenance and Canadian maintenance. Your 7500 os like our 15k due to your weather conditions, By the time your cars hit 36k, the car has been worked more than ours.

Your TL's may not last as long as those in the Southern States, so they cut back on the warranty. What can I say?

Hey Doopster. Yes its cold in Canada right now, however there are many States that have worse weather than us in the Toronto area, ie.Michigan, New York, Mass.,Minn. etc., so I guess that in those States, Acura has the same warranty as in Canada? BTW, where do you live?

Talking

cause Canadian MSRP is WAAYYYY less than USA. $36k Cdn MSRP is exchanges to $23,700 US. So I rather not pay extra for the "extended warranty".
