If you turn the wheels left or right and making buzzing noise it's mean the power steering is bad.
If the car pull to the one side, you need alingment.
And it's good to replace all the shocks especially car has more than 100K (start fresh).
The heater sometimes smell like something burn. (the 1st time you use it)
The buzzing sound comes when you rev the car under 2500 rpm.
Where is the sound come from?
The start issue you have, 1st you shouldn't turn on and off the car about 6 times.
Could be your iddling sensor, temperature sensor.
Try clean the injector , the throttle body and do tune up (might fix it)
And if you feel any slippage on the transmission, you need to bring the car to a mechanic.
Acura TL famous with the tranny problem.
Also you need call this # to check about the recall on transmission
Acura customer service at 1-800-382-2238.
But I don't know if this will work for you Cuz you're not in the US.
Beside the problem you have, it is a very nice car.
Hopefully these will help you
ps:good luck
