Its the orange light right between the lights indicator and the hand brake indicator. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but I thin there is a little metal flap on the fuel port that is supposed to close by itself when you are fueling, in the actual fuel channel. Mine does not seem to be there anymore, or it is stuck open, could this be causing the emmission control to turn on? Thanks!

do you also have a check engine light on? If you are under 80K or 8 years, go to acura and they should fix any emissions related problem for free.

Its out of warranty.

Are you over 80K miles? The emissions equipment (both intake and exhaust side) warranty is 80K miles/8yrs and separate from the general 4yr/48 mo. warranty.

Well, I can comment on this part of your question. No, our TL does not have this metal flap. I freaked-out about this too a few years ago with my TL. I compared my other Acuras, and they don't have a metal flap either. So, I concluded that my TL didn't ever have one either. So, we can rule out this as the cause for your light.

I am at just under 128k Km, do you know what the warranty kilometerage is in Canada?

csmeance

I think it might be 130Km's in canada, but go to the dealer and see if they will cover it.

Its the O2 sensor, but they say that the extended warranty ran out in November so even though I'm under the kilometer limit I'm not covered. They want $450 for it, installed. :S

If you are still wondering about the metal flap, there is one, or there is supposed to be one. I filled up yesterday, went for a drive, and on my way back, my engine light came on. I didn't think to look for the metal flap, until reading your post. I thought that it came on due to cleaning my K&N filter, but the TLs are some sensor oriented, it could be the flap. However, after opening and closing the gas cap this morning, my light went off. I am looking into replacing the port or flap. My worry now that the flap is in my fuel cell.
Good luck.

Fulani has a TL
