Question Issues with my '04 TL

Just want to get some feedbacks on couple of things on my TL:

1. Since this Monday, I have been feeling the car vibrates when I hit the brake (at about 20-30 mph). Don't know if the rotors are warp or some other issue with the brakes. I just got passed the 24k miles mark. If the rotors are warp, are they under warranty? I seem to recall the long term test TL under the Motor Trend magazine has the same problem.

2. Is it normal for the rear left window to go up and down real slow?

Appreciate any feedbacks in advance!

Thanks,

Sam

Your rotors are warped, I had that same issue 2 weeks ago. I had the Acura dealership resurface them and it costs $170.00-180.00. Now i have no more vibrating steering wheel

Ouch,

Pull them off yourself and have someone like Napa etc. turn them for you for $12 a piece. Front brake jobs are one of the easiest DIY activities. Many independent shops that perform brake jobs will also turn rotors for you.

Just a thought..
