For long time I had no problem with my TL 2.5 until yesterday.
I recently changed spark plugs and had a local shop clean fuel system.

While sitting at a light yesterday, the car turned off. I cranked it and came right back up without any problem. I got on the highway and than it was about to shut off while I was doing 70.mph, but came right back on.

I am not sure what might be the problem. About a year ago, I replaced the electric part of the ignition switch but the culprit was the starter than.

Any suggestion would be helpful.

Sounds just like what my last Civic used to do. It was distributor.

I took it to the dealer and that's what the dealer first old me but later they told me that it was the main relay.
They gave me a 2011 TL as loaner and it's been 4 days and they still did not call me to pick up my car.
I am not in any hurry, I'm loving the 2011 TL.

Just incase someone has similar issue.

It was the main relay under the driver dash. It was replaced and problem has not resurfaced in over a week.

I've not had this problem on the Acura but I have in the past on other cars. It's not really tough, just open up the relay. They're fairly easy to re-solder.
