Is this recall old or new???
So I went into the delarship today to get my car repaired for a 3 things...
1)rear license plate light wouldn't work.
2)contstant whining and squelling noise.
3)blown speaker.
After 2 hours I get a phone Call saying...."your car is ready to be picked up"...the problems fixed were
1) rear license plate light harness not connected.
2)ordered a new propeller shaft - making an appointment next week
3)ordered a new speaker. Will also be in next week.
4)A TORQUE CONVERTER RECALL FIX WAS DONE ON THE CAR. SPECIFICALLY A SOFTWARE UPGRADE.
hmm that's funny I didn't realize there was a recall for this. Is anyone else aware of this???

I had my 2010 TL SH AWD in for service a couple of weeks ago and they told me there was a software update that they would do while it was in. My service record says, "PCM update for lock-up clutch function" with a long series of numbers and letters. Not sure if this is the same thing. Mine is an automatic transmission in the US.

What do you mean by "lugging at 1400 rpm's" ?

No mention of it on the "MyAcura" website. I will check with my Dealer Service Mgr.

The TC issue has been a common one for 4th gen auto trans owners. Search the forums. There are several threads. There has just recently (within the past month) been a service bulletin issued.

Low freq vibration at these RPMs, feels like the engine is struggling by being at one gear too high for the speed. Does not occur in S mode. TC replacement has helped several forum members, although it does not always eliminate the problem.

My dealer replaced the propeller shaft without even hearing it and the whistling was gone. They were well well aware of the issue and ordered the part pronto.

I went to DCH Acura in poughkeepsie ny....I had also went to other dealers specifically in manhattan and they did not hear the noise at all, maybe becuase of all the traffic around and outside noise.

What model years does this apply to? All 4G? I have a 2012 TL SH-AWD Advance. Have heard the growl...Had it on my '09, too, but the dealer consistently told me it was normal/they didn't hear anything. So, I just kind of started ignoring it when I heard it again on the new car.
