I think I have fixed an annoying rattle that some others may have.. It was coming from the passenger side door area, and it turned out to be the door sill.. I noticed that it was not tight, and I tapped on it a few times and it was making the same noise I heard while driving. I took it off and taped some rubber weatherstrip underneath on the metal. Put the sill back on and all is good...

Now I have to figure out another problem, anybody with the sunroof visor hear a whistling while the sunroof is closed.. I know it is the visor because I took it off and it is gone... Anyone????

Glad you fixed it. I too have something in the passenger door that I've been too lazy to do anything about.

 

Great news!!! Now if you can make the whistle stop.....

That would be even better!! Search this forum you'll see many tries at this one.....

 

for your sunroof, you have to unscrew the deflector, push it forward (toward the engine) and screw it back on.

 

csmeance, push it forward, why is that???? what will that do???

That didn't fix mine.....

 

i think my door sill plates are rattling too, ill try and isolate them and see how it works!

 

are all TL assembled in usa?

 

yep

 

is it possible to purchase a TL that was assembled in japan?

 

They're not made in japan?

 

lol i'm gonna sendan email to acura... if you want to sell more acura TL's put a label saying "assembled in japan" lol j.k

 

This is the after market deflector from acura right???? Anyway what happens is the seal at the front isn't created properly causing the whistling noise. There was a TSB info thing for this issuse.

 

i woulda paid a couple more grand if they assembled the TL in Japan.

Ohio build quality sucks.
