Various small problems....

Just picked up a 06 TL with 55k CPO and noticed the following things:

1. Cornering - steering effort seems to fluctuate going through some bumpy corners while I hold the steering wheel at the same angle...feels very unnatural.

2. Low speed whine - Going from a standing start, I can hear a whine from 1st-2nd gear...didn't notice this when test driving other TL's

3. Vibration at cold start - front end of the car seems to have a slight vibration and you can totally feel it in your butt/legs....

Am I just too sensitive or do I have problems brewing? I still have CPO warranty so I'd like to get these fixed before the warranty runs out.

Thanks guys!

John

1. Cant help

2. Does it have a cold air intake? In may not be the trans...after market intakes have a common problem with the whistle/whine....if not, then you want to get to an acura dealer stat!

3. totally normal, it does this to warm of the catalytic converters quicker...no need to worry about this one
