New owner here. Have a question about noise/vibration when accelerating.

I just bought a used 07 TL Blue with 24K miles. When accelerating, I notice a prominent vibration from the floor. I know it's subjective, but is this normal? I'm coming from a Ridgeline, which was exceptionally quiet for a Honda so maybe I'm just not accustomed to a lower high performance sedan.

No-- have the engine mounts checked.

You may also want to search the vibration threads here to see if there are other causes for the excessive vibration which should be checked.

Welcome to AZ.

At about 3k to 4k, usually going from 25 to 50 mph. It sounds like there's a hole in the pipe. I've been told by the dealer that it's just the aggressive tuning of the TL. I think I'll go test drive another 07 and compare the feel before making a service appointment.

Gotta be the motor mounts or one mount and or a bad CV boot or axle. No vibrations should come from a Honda.
