Driveshaft axle, Left side... does any1 kno who carries a aftermarket one for the 6spd?

Ive called up a few places and no luck

NVA-AV6

Advance autoparts, if they do not have one listed for the TL, the 7th gen Accord 6 axels will work just fine.

Superb quality and customer service.

Just curious by aftermarket you mean OE replacement not OEM right? If anything I would see if Oreillys might carry it. If not you can try ordering off the internet.

You should be careful with re-manufactured axles. I replaced mine, now it makes this cracking sound.

Yes OE i meant... i will

ill keep that in mind, all u hear from mine now is a CLICK CLICK CLICK CLICK when im turning and a rediculous vibration cuz of it

thnx man, i will call them 2morrow mornin

Honda Accord 06 V6 6spd
Part # 44306-SDP-A00

Acura TL 04 6Spd
Part # 44306-SEP-A02

they r different

NVA-AV6

Yes, but it is actually a common swap to put the TL axels in to the AV6, I have put the two side by side with no "visible" or "mesurable" differences.

Also the Advance ones are NEW from GP Sorenson for $69.99 ea.

Interesting... that's the first Honda part I've seen more expensive than it's Acura counterpart

^^But either way thanks for sharing that piece of info!

This link https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-problems-fixes-114/new-axle-needed-751160/ also discusses drive shaft axel as well. I had gotten the GSP one from Advance Auto Parts and the serial number for the auto and manual are both the same. I had mine replaced last weekend and so far so good. Now the right side is starting to do the clicking sound upon cold starts. However, I cannot find one for the right from AAP.

Do u have a 6spd? Cuz if u do, any issues? Cuz my boy dat works for nissan ordered an axle for me but the measurements of lengths was off by 1/2" on da AT axle that he got me...

We never got to install it tho

NAiL05

Sometimes both axles are really close in length but you can barely tell. This happens sometimes where you might have gotten the wrong side which throws off the measurement a bit. I have seen that happen a few times.

mn2trance

Yep, I have a 6spd. And no, no issue as I had stated previously.

vovka2007

Does yours do the clicking only when cold? Cuz i have the same thing. On cold it makes horrible clicks, but after it warms up its way less.

Go for it. The guys on my last car forum started using these when their OE's were busted up from Autocross. You won't be dissapointed.

Raxle wants $179 99, which is not bad imo since they build it for u.... Now on da other hand Curry Acura wants $165 for there OEM... I'll c wat ill do GSP or Raxle or Curry

HQTL6SPD

^For that price stay with OEM, you won't risk any possible headache from receiving a wrong fitting part..

Uhhhh...people spend countless amounts of money to upgrade to a higher quality component, and this is no different. If aftermarket components such as rotors, pads, clutches, pressure plates, torque converters, brake lines, and the like did not meet factory spec on the production line, they'd be out of business.

...the only difference here is that an axle is not commonly conceived as having a quality aftermarket alternative.

My axles are fine, but I will gladly use them for the TL when/if the time comes. There already exist a bevy of OE components I cannot wait to get the hell off my car, and I for one am not worried about fitment from tried and true suppliers such as this.

NAiL05

acuraoemparts? or try hondaoemparts with the number and see what you might get lol.

mn2trance

Yep, only on cold does the right side do the same as you had described. It's not quite as loud as the left which seems to be the only side that people seem to have the most problems with.

same shit for AT and MT... just different numbers... wanted to throw that out there for the aziners, AT on a MT and no issues wat so ever

mn2trance

The reason why the part number is the same for AT and MT for the driver side is that they're identical. However, after recently getting my passenger side rebuilt, it is a little different. The end that connects to the wheel is a bit larger than on the driver's side. That's why we can't find it in the auto parts store for MT.

If your still looking for the axle let me know bc i got mine from a dude in Hempstead, I have a manual too! perfect fit and its a rebuild....the guy knows axles like the back of his hand

HQTL6SPD

How much did it cost you? Mine clicks a bit when its below freezing outside..

salu8819

$70 bucks....... No problems!!

DMZ

Have you tried www.rockauto.com? I think they carry them.
