2007 60k . So, from reading this thread I'm not worried about my engine but is it normal for tranny to die at around 200k? Can you guys whose tranny died chime in and say how often you changed fluid in your ATs? I'm wondering if doing all these 3x3 fluid flushes would extend trannie's life.

thomask, I copied this post to a new thread and moved our conversation there to keep this thread on topic.
Original owner of '07 RL with 97K miles. It's in the shop now for the timing belt update, which is the first big job ever done to it.
It's been rock solid. I do baby it and performed every service early or more frequently than called for.
As pointed out by others, this has to be one of the most under-appreciated cars out there.
Waiting on the '17 MMC refresh of the SH-RLX before even considering moving on.
06 RL, 124K miles, purchased from Philadelphia area at 105K 2 years ago. I recently retired, so hope to keep the car out of the salt in winter from now on. Still rust free underneath. Recently had a leak around the windshield. Still working on resolving that. Otherwise a great car. Very comfortable. Battery replaced last winter. No big deal. Keep all maintenance items up to date (or done early). Use synthetic (Mobil 1) oil.
Currently at 71K miles, second owner purchased 4/'15 with 51K. Just had a $11K re-paint courtesy of Geico.
Looking for a 2016 RLX Hybrid CPO but, will keep the RL. Unbelievably great car exceeding the E350W4!
I have a 06 like new with 51k
i bought it at 43 last year for $14k
I love my car soo much it is perfect. The lady who bought the car from the Acura dealership she did everything up dealership she even got the tires aired up at the dealership the Handler Who Sold her the car actually took care of everything for her and he sold the car back to me because she sold the car back to Acura but I love my car everything was done by accurate so I'm pretty lucky here some pictures of my car right now it's at about 51k mile
KURA my car isnt she pretty
an amazing car I used to own a 97 RL and a 94 Legend
2006 RL just rolled over 208,000 miles. We bought the car with 44,000 miles. The timing belt service is coming up soon. We on a trip to Tennessee on a family emergency. The car has driven 1500 miles in 24 hours averaging 26 mpg. Not a drop of oil has been used. This is one awesome car.

Are you sure about RLX? I am hoping they started using real leather on the interior... It is really disappointing they are using leatherette for the interior for such expensive car.
That is awesome... can i ask what or any prob that you have had since you owned the car? i see you owend your car since 44k mils i got mine at 43k mils i just wanted to know what to look for i have a 06 as well
Just bought an 05 with 59,311. Test drove it and fell in love with it. Garaged all it's life. Bought it from a retired 81 year old lawyer. It's mint except for drivers side minor 1/4 panel and front pass fender blemish. I am going to take of that asap before it rust out. I'm worried about the future repair of the propeller shaft though? Car still smells new inside. All service records done at the dealer. Including the 60,000k service, timing belt etc done in 2014. Rolling on michelins with a lot of thread left. I will pick it up this Saturday. I'll post some pics.
2005 with 107,000 miles which I sold. Only tires were replaced every 30,000.
Adhered to maintenance schedule performed by dealer. Major repairs were drivers windshield, stroke sensor, HID bulbs.
2011 Advance with 64,000 miles.
Major repairs SAS, stroke, back up sensors, front and rear rotors, engine mounts, torque converter, cover for antenna on roof.
I have an 05 RL with 237k miles. Still as strong as ever. The only thing I had to replace was my driver's side headlight ignitor and bulb.I am happy to see FN P90 and his accomplishments. Gotta love our RL's.
I also have an 05 RL and lately I have been getting very sluggish acceleration under hard throttle and also throttle seems kind laggy at times. Replaced spark plugs, have you ever had this problem?
