Hello Fellow Acura enthusiast!

I have a 2005 acura tl nav base model (auto) and finally after soooo much damn time took the car into my local Acura dealership to get diagnosed.

Finally after 3 days and a nice little demo of the new acura TL they gave me a pretty comprehensive list of the troubles the plague my lady.

Main issue is the steering rack column is leaking and causes the car to make loud clicking/clacking noises when i turn at low speeds and slightly at high speeds.

Does anyone know a thread that discusses this issue with also a link to purchase the part itself, also if you know of any personal experience replacing this bad boy please drop a line!

I finally gradued and have enough tax return to start making moves, or at least fixing my baby girl.

Also have found freaking crack on my dash so if anyone knows of a good place to buy an oem and replace the dash please, send me the info!

 

Clicking noise is usually from the CV joint @ axles. Power steering leak from rack = replacement
$2-300 for rack + 2 hr labour
