WTF? 05TL needs more rpm to get the same acceleration as 03?
When accelerating my 03 TL-P onto a freeway, I can basically stay below 2500 rpm and get to 60 mph pretty fast.
But while driving my 05 TL, besides it being much less smoother, it barely accelerate if I don't push it above 2500 rpm!
I know the gearing is different, but on the same gear, the engine shouldn't behave differnetly, did you guys experience this?
