I don't know if this is a issue or not, but whenever i drive my car for like 30mins or so , the engine gets really hot. Even after i turn off the engine, it stays hot for a looong time. And it also warms up REALLY quickley, but the needle on the dash says ok. Is this normal for TLs or should this be an issue that i should get it checked out. I had a prelude before and after i turn off engine, it'll take an hour and the engine would be cold already.

I hate cars

Normal.

^ what he said. Bigger engine, compared to prelude, might affect the cool down time. As long as the dash needle is in ideal range, you should be fine.

Inaccurate

Normal. It was one of the first things that I noticed about my '06 TL when I first got it.

If you pop the hood, you will see insulation lining on your hood. This keeps the car warm longer even after the engine is off.

Inaccurate

Ha, ha... this is an understatement. The real engine is buried deep down there somewhere under all kinds of things.

Lift the hood, and challenge yourself to find the engine...or anything mechanical. The way I like to refer to it is to pop the hood, then pop the other "hoods" (aka, plastic shrouds along top-side and bottom-side too).
