Hello all. I have a quick question. I bought a new 2013 TL awd a week ago. The car now has about 250 miles on it. When I accelerate very slowly from a stop, I get a faint vibration in the wheel from idle until about 1600 rpm, when it disappears. There are no vibrations above 1600 rpm. If I am driving on the highway, and give it a little gas, I get the same faint vibration but only until about 1600 rpm. Is this the engine bogging down?

forgot to add, this is the automatic transmission

Had my 2013 AWD TL for 3 less than 3 months, BAD rattle deep in dash. They had it 4 days in the shop - rattle not as Bad but can't get the dash on correctly. Want new car, their Cust Relations dept is fighting it.....hard to believe new car has problems. Back seat also has a spot they can't get off - say they need to replace the car seat......not looking forward to that. I'll keep after them after all its an Acura.

That's how mine started and it was the torque converter.Just had it replaced

What type of fuel are you using? I am assuming 91 or higher from a top tier station?

^It's not fuel

Vibration on accel = Tq Converter
Vibration on decel = Wheel balance issue
