Got the rear deck bass rattle taken care of at the dealer. They went in from the top and removed the rear deck, then applied thick EPT tape all over. Problem solved for now. Back to Icky Thump!

 

We did, but she turned on me! Hmmph.

 

I think he drives the Chevette in the Winter...

 

Now in winter proper - another 6 inches of snow overnight temps steadily below zero. No problems. having a remote with good range - by far the best OEM unit and a heated steering wheel are a godsend. My commute is now so short the engine only just fully heats up by the time I get home. But as long as your hands are warm....sure I could wear gloves...or start the car even earlier by remote - but just wastes gas.

 

I opened my driver side back door to find the gasket around the door had come off for about a foot around the door. No extreme conditions. Temps were around 70 degrees last week.

Is this a known issue? It doesn't seem ton have gone back on flush. Maybe I didn't seat it correctly? Is there a trick to it?

 

Keep rubbing it in, i am just baffled why those fucktards at Acura think the US models dont need them.

 

Did you sell/trade your TLX?

 

i mad a mad sick jdm rocket bunny tanabe spoon tow hook plate bracket.



and added a amp and sub.





i blew the 10" pioneer so i grabbed a 12" kenwood. sounds great.

 

Traded. Scored a great end of year deal and could NOT be happier.

 

What's your new car?

 

My TLX is in the detail shop today getting its clear film and a coating installed & applied. I can't wait to see the results.

 

Used my window wipers for the first time after 5 months of ownership (I live in southern california). Thought the auto window wipers were a nice touch. I also noticed it does not go back and forth smoothly and kinda jumps as it goes along the window. Not sure if its the blades or the whole wiper mechanism. I will mention it when I bring it in for my first oil change and see what they say

 

^It's the wiper blades, mine did the same. Dealer swapped out the rubber blade free of charge for me.

 

I got my first oil change. At 5,400 miles my maintenance minder said 30% oil but I want to get in the habit of maintaining it every 5,000. Dealer normally charges I think $55 for oil change and filter but I had a coupon from another dealership they price matched at $18! Woohoo.

I had them do a few other things like install a cargo hook, and realign my hood since it was off. Oh and if you notice 2 posts ago ^^ I wrote my wiper blades were skipping but the dealer said they didnt notice it (it was very minor) so they didnt do anything but living in Southern California Im sure ill survive since it rains like twice a year and I usually drive my 4runner if it rains so who cares.

 

I'm in socal too where did you get the coupon?

 

$18 at the dealer !?! By those prices I swear you stopped by a jiffy lube, don't tell me the dealer you went to matches them.

I'll probably be getting my oil change soon since I'm at 40% at just about 4,300mi.
