Telescoping Steering Wheel

Why does the 05 TSX have a telescoping steering wheel but the TL does not?

If it makes u feel any better, My girlfriends 2003 Accord LX has that to. The TL should atleast have automatic tilt and telescope.

I meant Automatic telescoping not the manual one. I had it on my 96 RL its a great feature especially when integrated to your Memory settings.

That's a feature that started on the Legend back in the early 90s. It is indeed a cool feature. I'll live with pulling on the wheel.

I know 05TSX having Tilt and telescopic steering column, but I guess it's not "Power tilt-and-telescopic steering column". Maybe I'm wrong here.

04/05 TLs do have "Tilt-and-telescopic steering column".

I quite appreciate my 94 Legend having this "Power tilt-and-telescopic steering column", it made the entry/exit easy. As for 04TL without it, it's fine for me.

LOL.....this is too funny. Next time before you purchase a car, do some research to make sure it has "EVERYTHING" you want.
