then its just impossible. You could try looking at the owner's manual or the floor mats though. After that run the VIN.

I didn't start liking the TL's till the 2nd gen and boy do I miss mine, but fell in love with them on the 3rd gen style. I'll deal with the rattles, still the best looking car in its class imo.

For sure. For rattles, my solution is a repair manual and molding

When you floor it from a stop without touching the steering wheel and the car makes a right turn.

When you get wheelspin no matter how you accelerate in first gear.
