Found a Type-S a couple days ago that it needs some TLC. So far the Bluetooth isn't working and I have the tighten gas cap error going off constantly. Does anyone know of other things to watch out for . This car has almost 171,000 miles. interior not so pretty needs a lot of diligent cleaning and conditioning. Other than that I feel like I got a pretty good deal. The car I got is in the profile picture.

Welcome to the forums.

Since you are hardly a "new member", and this is a technical issue which will require replies and not a "New Member Introduction", I moved this thread to the appropriate subsection so you can hopefully get more help.

The HFL module is very common thing to break in the TL next to the gas cap warning, I own 2 TLs a base and a Type S and they both have the same issue.

HFL unit can be bought at AZ OEM parts vendor for $256 + $89 - $190 core deposit (once you complete replacement send the old one back along with copy of purchase receipt and they will issue a refund)

Gas cap warning can be address very easy (there is multiple DIY in this forum) $90 part + 10 mins of your time and tools needed for the job are 10 mm socket and pliers. It simple as disconnecting to vacuum hoses and remove a 10 mm bolt and 10 mm nut.
