Yes, his s2000 makes me really want a s2000, but i have to admit the tl is the best daily driver ever

'06 with 121,000 bought in Dec of '05 . The first 65k were done in the first two years, it was just about all freeway use. Now it sees 3 miles a day. I had an alternator go out around 113,000 miles. Not sure if the system shortened the life or not. Otherwise nothing major. My HFL finally went out, I removed it but haven't bought another yet. Most people think it's a very low mileage car. Once I stopped using it as a commuter 210 miles a day I replaced the windshield and had the hood, fenders, and bumper repainted so the inevitable paint damage from freeway miles is gone. It's also had the carpet, steering wheel, just about any interior wear item replaced as well, to keep it looking new.

Closing in on 155K.

My miles this year are down from last year. Unfortunately the reason for that is that I have been doing more 3-4 day trips and less 1-2 day trips. It's bad when the guy at the airport parking knows who you are and what you drive.

237k miles on an 04' 5AT! A new AC compressor & a rebuilt tranny is all I've had to replace so far besides regular maintenance. Still averaging 26mpg's as well .

I have 113k. No major issues, the only thing is the power steering whine is happening again (this is a 50 cent part), the HFL is out, and so is the 6-disc changer. I want to replace the HFL (I drive alot and I have to get on conference calls in my car sometimes).

Pressure switches and a DexIII fluid will likely cure it. Harsh downshifts plus slippage/shudder and I'm guessing a delay from park to drive are all symptoms of bad pressure switches.

My 04 5AT has 201,000 I bought it with 200,000 a month ago. Since I receive it I have done a trans flush twice with redline trans fluid. If the trans goes bad I will swap my motor and trans with a 05 motor and 6MT with 71,000 .

55,XXX on my 07. Only thing wrong was the Nav disc got scratched and stopped working. Service bulletin out but dealership did nothing. Wanted almost $1000 to replace, probably going to ship it to Alpine.

Just hit 107,000 on my 07 TL-S. It feels like my tranny is about to take a dump. What are those pressure switches mentioned above, seems that may be a possible solution.

147k on an 06 TL. Bought from original owner, tranny is fine but it has a bad seal somewhere as its leaking fluid every so lightly. Not enough to affect the level but enough to make things look a bit messy. Put in the UV dye in the fluid a few weeks ago, tech is going inspect and figure out where the leak is coming from.

Other than that the car has been great, made two trips to Toronto last month (1200 miles round trip) and achieved an average mpg of 32 with four occupants and a trunk load of luggage.

The lower part of the fender lip has a quarter sized rust spot on it, my plan is to get it fixed before winter as the salt causes havoc on these cars.

161k on my 05- original owner. I do need to some repairs like the front axle and power steering rack. Also have to figure out what do about a broken end link/bracket from my rear sway bar. Probably going to have to get it welded. Also have some interior bulbs around the navi out and the driver's seat heater light is out as well. Ordered VLED LED license plate light replacements since the OEM left side license plate bulb just went out a few days ago. Other than that the car is running good.

will flip 210,000 miles on my way to work tomorrow. No major repairs to date. Always run redline oil every 10,000 miles.

340000

Hi guys,
I'm new to this group, but I have a ton of experience with this series car. Currently, I'm running at 340,000 on my 2004 TL and its still running loops around my new police car. I look forward to learning additional info from you guys on your successes and trials!

Be Safe, keep that belt on!

Second owner. I believe I bought her with 5K miles in 04. So nearly all of those miles belong to me!

I'm up to about 115k on my '04. 3rd owner, although it hasn't left my immediate family. I've been bad (aka broke) so I haven't done the timing belt change yet. She's going in on Friday. Otherwise, runs like a quality Honda motor should. I've had Navi issues though, but it's whatever since I use Google Maps on my phone.
