The update has been a disaster for me. Can't speak for others, but CarPlay now does not work the first time I attach my iPhone, and the only workaround I've been able to find is to plug in the phone, then disconnect it, then reconnect it again. I never had this issue prior to updating. Also, occasionally audio from other sources (such as satellite radio) does not work if I try to use CarPlay simultaneously. Again, did not have this issue prior to updating.
Am hoping there are others out there who can suggest fixes. Have tried hard restart on phone, but have not tried resetting car to factory presets (yet).
Phone is running iOS 14.2

Anyone see sales numbers for Jan yet?
Perhaps there will be an uptick in Feb from all the GME shares being sold. LOL!

Not a big fan of wheel insurance, but if I still lived up north would most likely cave & buy it. One quality wheel tire combo would pay for it. Second one would be on them.

New owner here from Long Island, NY. Had a 2018 Accord EX-L 2.0 which was a very good car. But this TLX is way above that (to me anyway). I have the Black Pearl with Espresso interior which is very rich looking. Had it now for 6 days and I'm loving it every minute I drive it. Things I love:
- The look of the exterior with dark colors
- This 2.0 feels like it has a faster pickup than my Accord, I know it not faster but just feels like it.
- The ELS Studio is WAY better than anything I ever had in a car. I'm hearing sounds from songs I listen before that I didn't hear before. Just a great system.
- The interior is great. The layout is like a cockpit with that ambient lighting is so cool (as the kids would say).
- Touchpad took a few days to get used too, but now ok.
- The integrated dynamics system, could really feel the modes when you change them, was very suprise.
Need to wait until the weather changes here on the island before I really get to drive it more. So far their isn't anything I don't like lol.

Congrats from a follow Long Islander : ) What version did you get? Did you have the Accord V6 with the 17" or 19" wheels and either way, how does the Road Noise compare between the Accord and TLX? thanks and careful on the Southern State ; )

Thanks, had the 2018 2.0 EX-L Accord, same engine with 17th wheels. The TLX has less road noise even with the 19 inch wheels. I feel that this cars power comes on faster than my Accord.

I had the "radar obstruction" notice on my car again while driving through flurries yesterday. Never experienced similar messages from the MDX I had but this probably only became an issue with the intro of '19 RDX, '21 TLX, and '22 MDX?

I seen my first one on the road yesterday. Acura is one of those brands where you'll see more of them used, at-least here in Baltimore you will. 3-4 years you'll see a lit bit more of these. I have a 19, but I still see good amount of 15-17 ones. I'm now starting to see more 18-20 ones

Golfer's car
So I took my A-Spec out today for the first golf swings of the year. I fully expected to fold the rear seats to allow for additional room and was pleasantly surprised to cram the following into the trunk without doing so:
1) Clicgear 2.0 foldable golf cart all the way into the rear of trunk.
2) Full-size emergency kit that includes a lug wrench, compressor, and jumper cables. I will probably downgrade to a smaller kit since I don't have a spare in this car.
3) Full-size golf cart bag. This is not one of those shoulder bags that has legs that pop out when you set it on the ground. It's similar size to the ones the pros use on TV. I was able to set this down horizontally! One great benefit of this car's width being so pronounced is the width close to the opening of the trunk.
I could probably fit about 2 bags of groceries if I had to but this is already pretty tight. For the record, I could never fit the same cart bag horizontally in my '18 MDX!

I said this last year:
People who buy Acuras are largely pragmatic and make decisions using their brain rather than their heart. That's great for cars like the RDX where it undercuts the competition by quite a bit and offers more space/utility. However, the problem with the TLX is that if you line it up next to an RDX that costs the same, it's going to be difficult for left-brain folks to justify buying the TLX, especially with the huge incentives the RDX currently has. The RDX has more cargo space, a larger backseat, easier to park and get in and out of, etc. The TLX certainly has the emotional appeal and wins on driving experience, that's for sure, but those things don't really resonate with a lot of Acura buyers.
So, I'm calling it now: it's not going to sell as well the 1G TLX. While this is a better car than the 1G TLX, the 1G was really two cars in one, with one of them competing aggressively on price, and it had a pretty lackluster internal competitor in the 2G RDX. I'll go ahead and bookmark this post so that I can either toot my own horn a couple years from now, or admit I was wrong.

Well for folks that were on the fence b/w RDX and TLX and ultimately chose the RDX, they will have pay just a bit more for gas fill up now than usual. Gas today in my area is 10% higher than last week! It's only going to get worse!

I have seen only a handful since I got my TLX in Feb. It is a great car that has alot of value and just a peach to drive. For me I'm the only one in the car about 99% of the time, so car for me only.

Was reading this & discovered a shocker. The Z4 only sells a few hundred a month in the US. Its been in production for global sale since November 2018. Saw 5 in the last week. Have seen 2 TLX's since release. This used to be the place where 5 or 6 TL's would be holding at a local traffic light.

Isn't the difference between the RDX and TLX 1 whole whopping MPG (24MPG combined vs 25MPG combined)? If you drive 1K miles a month, and gas is $4/gallon, that comes out to a scant $7/month difference, not even enough for a Big Mac combo. Even with the most extreme case of highway driving (27MPG vs 29MPG) that's a mere $10/month difference.
I haven't had a car that consistently broke 20 mpg (combined) for a while now. Currently averaging ~25 mpg on my TLX.

Yes, on paper the difference is very little. I've found SUV's to stray quite a bit more from reported EPA values compared to sedans so I was really thinking more "real world" numbers.

In a vacuum, it's a good car, but unfortunately it's the wrong car at the wrong time. Not only are customers gravitating towards crossovers, but the luxury offerings above them are starting to pull away, and the new entrants below them are encroaching on the value aspect. Heck even the Accord 2.0T is probably cannibalizing quite a bit of TLX FWD sales. The TLX is stuck in a no-mans land in the middle; it's a car that's good (even great) at many things, but isn't the clear winner at any one paticular thing (other than being really long, if you consider that a good thing).
I said this last year:
I said this last year:
If my dealer cooperates with me, I'll probably swap out my 19 3.5 PAWS for the 21 A-Spec FWD as soon as this weekend. In sport mode, it definitely seems to have the same pull though it doesnt sound anywhere near as good. As for those who may wonder why I wouldnt go with the RDX, it's as simple as I dont want or need another wagon in the garage.
Edit: My dealer didn’t cooperate so, I’ll explore other options...potentially non-Acura ones. Stay tuned.

And in your example, it's not even $0.50 a day.
I find it interesting that people make such a big deal about gasoline prices.
- Even with it's almost as cheap as bottle water.
- Even when they drive expensive cars and live in nice houses (ie, well off).
- Even when they like quick cars and drive them kinda-hard (using more precious gas).
Same for slight discrepancies in MPG between models.

Stared the day having a Genesis G70 2.0 delivered to my door for a test drive. I liked the car but had some reservations about trunk size and a couple of other minor things. In the early afternoon, I dropped by Acura intending to test drive An RDX thinking it would be moore practical. I was really thinking about 6 months down the road when the lease on my current 2018 ASpec Elite 2.4 was closer to completion, a car that I have really enjoyed for almost 3 years. While at Acura, I saw my favourite TLX combo, the Apex Blue ASpec with the Red & black interior. So I took my fourth TLX test drive in the last few months, and yada yada yda, I left with that beauty several hours later. Given that the deal was surprisingly excellent, despite the remaining 16 payments on my lease. I couldn't be happier!

I AM BACK!! After owning a 3rd & 4th generation TL, I jumped ship and leased a 2015 Lexus GS & then a 2017 RX (both F-Sport models), Today I purchased a 2021 TLX A-Spec AWD and could not be any happier. Yes. the Lexus is a softer drive, but the Acura is so engaging on the road and they've got the styling right this time.

So I took my fourth TLX test drive in the last few months, and yada yada yda, I left with that beauty several hours later. Given that the deal was surprisingly excellent, despite the remaining 16 payments on my lease. I couldn't be happier!

I AM BACK!! After owning a 3rd & 4th generation TL, I jumped ship and leased a 2015 Lexus GS & then a 2017 RX (both F-Sport models), Today I purchased a 2021 TLX A-Spec AWD and could not be any happier. Yes. the Lexus is a softer drive, but the Acura is so engaging on the road and they've got the styling right this time.

I did have 16 monthly payments from my 48 month lease left. It's crazy, but with the discounts they gave me and a net 0% lease for 39 months, with my 2.0% Acura loyalty discount, a cash discount from Acura of about $1100, and my $1500 discount because I'm so special, my discounts more than ate up the negative equity. I'm paying $50 less a month than I would have expected to pay with my usual 48 month lease. The 39 month lease deal, which ended today, is cheaper than the 48 because of the rate, before my 2% discount, and is a better fit for my typical time frame. As I looked at the Superman Car, I threw my 2018 Aspec a final kiss, and said yes to the newest auto love of my life. She is a looker to be sure!
I will send pics when I get her timted (free), undercoated, and ceramic coated next week (half price).

Just a moment of tribute for my 2018 ASpec 2.4. She was a wonderful car that I enjoyed each and every time I drove her. We'll always have many memories of our time together, especially the fabulous road trip to Minneapolis soon after we met, which is nostalgic on several levels. Stress free and economical. Now, I move into my next phase, with a a sexier and more powerful set of wheels, and if she performs as good as she looks, will be a welcome upgrade. Let the games begin
