Cars make a lot of "noises".

A description of the noise will help.

When I was turning left and only left either in reverse or forward i had a clunking sound that scared the hell out of me, I lifted the car took the wheel off and the abs line was loose for some reason, the 2 bolts that hold it in place were gone. Take your wheel off and see if anything is visible, thats step one.

Does it happen EVERY time or just once. Does it happen going forward? Does it only happen the one direction. If so does it do it in forward? What kind of noise? Grinding? Popping? rubbing? We need a little more info.

ok guys had it checked by the dealer. the mechanic said it was coming from the rotors, because i had aftermarket front rotors . he said those rotors starts touching eventually. so ya he suggested me to change the whole all four rotors coz my rears had lotta rust in it, as well as brakes and pads. with the labour its costing me about 1100. my qustion is , would i feel better acceleration pressing the gas if i get new rotors?

Brakes are for STOPPING. The only real way your car would be "faster" by changing brakes are if you get lighter ones (and that won't make a huge deal of difference) or if your caliper was stuck in a clamped position and you replace it with a working one.

None of what you've said so far makes any sense, including what the dealer told you.

If I were you I'd get it looked at by a third-party mechanic who specializes in Honda/Acura. The dealership will often tell you anything just to get money.

A lot of us are using aftermarket front and rear rotors for our TL's, but don't have your "touching" nor "RT reverse turn noise". So whoever said it was common with aftermarket rotors on this cars, is trying to bullshit you and to rip you off. Stay away from this guy.
