New Acura web ad: TLX vs. 330i
#41
I agree original owners may not keep their cars that long, but the 200K miles thing reflects clearly in the used car market. The longer a car lasts with minimal repairs, the higher price it commands in the used market. Certain people just buy 5 year old cars with 100K miles and drive them to 200K miles or more. Best way to save money on cars.
So at 5 years or 100K miles, a reliable car can command a higher resale values than its comparables.
BUT yeah, the videos are bad for Acura. Funny at best.

Not to mention better handling, quieter ride, smooth and fast acceleration and last but not least - the A4 is a good looking car. I thought the Audi quattro AWD was supposed to be the best - is the Acura SH-AWD drive better?

I find it interesting that many of you criticize Acura for not marketing their products well. The videos of course are biased, just as EVERY CAR AD is biased including BMW, AUDI, ETC, ETC. However, it does point out features that Acura offers standard that the cars above don't. That's the point of the ads, to focus on Acura's value proposition. NOWHERE, does he suggest that the 330 and A4 aren't excellent cars or that the TLX is a better car. By the way, don't forget there is a TLX with a lovely 8 DCT that is rated better than equivalent transmissions by quite a few reviewers.
I also have to comment on the dealership experience comparison that some of you are citing based on anecdotal limited experience with dealerships in your city. Let me tell you about my friends 2018 Q7 that was out of commission for 3 weeks because of an eventual diagnosis of faulty injectors. It had to be towed out of his garage and the vehicle was missing for about a week during the Christmas Holiday season. The Audi dealership had no idea where it was, until the tow operator showed up a week later. There were several other annoying parts to this story that I won't bore you with, and needless to say my friend was more than a little pissed off with his customer experience on his $75K vehicle. Whereas at my Acura dealership, I am treated extremely well and have a loaner on short notice for whatever few services or warranty issues I have had over the years. Do I conclude from this that all Audi dealerships suck, or that all Acura dealerships are fabulous...hardly.
And I must politely disagree to some of the points in the last post regarding handling, ride, and looks. I have driven both cars and would be hard pressed to single out either car as quieter, or better riding. The A4 is a nice looking car, not a great looking car (but I like conservative styling). However, I do think the TLX, particularly the ASpec, is sharper looking - but of course that is entirely subjective.

Why are you getting so upset?
All im hearing is another opinion. One contrary to many of the ones in here. It's not wrong by any stretch of the imagination. Just different. Even including your Audi story. I can tell you horror stories right from my friends mouths, who were mechanics at Acura dealerships. It's no different and it goes both ways. Just contrary opinions based on contrary experiences. Ain't nothin' wrong wit dat.
Also, wasn't the 8DCT TLX even praised by a few, right in this very thread?
edit: must've been somewhere else... but a few members gave the 8DCT TLX the thumbs up.

Why bother to watch these videos...
Of course it's biased and BS. It was done by Acura. I just think TLX is for those people who is looking for value whereas Germans are targeting more on advanced engineering and driving. An Infiniti and Acura will always cost less than a German car with similar features.
Also no matter how much people show me proof that an Audi, MB or Audi are more reliable and will have a lower cost of ownership than an Acura. I will still go with an Acura (if that was my main criteria). Hater stay away, this is my opinion and you can have yours lol!
I will pick Acura, Lexus and Infiniti over any German if I want a decent premium car with some sportiness but great resale value and lower cost of maintenance. I am sure some people have bad experience with Acura but not me (Thank God). I bought in 2014 my 2010 TL one month after my friend who bought an a 2011 A4. So far, all I spent is oil changes and one tire replacement due to a flat tire. Every time I meet him, he tells me a new story of this is wrong and that's wrong. To the point that he is going to sell his A4 this coming summer and going to buy a Lexus IS.
I am not saying Audi's are bad cars but maintenance cost is expensive and it's not for everyone.

its brake never warped on me.
At at least after owning over 10 bmw since 2001. BMW quality and reliability is better than Honda/Acura I have owned. BMW has more electronics glitches. But it’s mechanical parts are excellent.

You just answered your own question...."DURING WARRANTY PERIOD" what about cost of ownership past warranty period? Not everyone can afford to buy brand new car and use it only during the warranty period. The question is if you keep you care for 7-10 years. then what happens?

Ads don't mention service but they do lie on some key points. So it's no wonder why some of us are upset.

First 4 years or 50K miles the only out of pocket cost was for tires which I got at Tire Rack, around $1000 a set not from the dealer. Like the brakes its normally 4 rears for every two front on a stagger setup. High performance summers maybe 20K miles for rear tires.
Brakes (OEM pads & rotors) F $91 R $80 New sensor kit F&R $20. Time about 40 minutes an end no special tools.
Usually you will do 2 sets of fronts to one set of rears mileage will vary on usage.
Two should note notes.
1. I do my own work.
2. For those who can't or don't want too Indi BMW specialists are very reasonable compared to dealer service prices.
BTW Have to agree with chiawei, my experience & my families experience our Honda & Acuras have more required dealer service & major parts replaced then the BMW's in the family. My TL experience is outlined in the 3G section starting in 2006. BMW experience is on the BMW web site starting in 2004.
As they say, your third cousins, boyfriends, nephews, friends experience may differ.

At at least after owning over 10 bmw since 2001. BMW quality and reliability is better than Honda/Acura I have owned. BMW has more electronics glitches. But it’s mechanical parts are excellent.
CELs, failed instrument clusters that had to be escalated to corporate, random glitches like getting out of the car and removing the key, but the electrical systems remained on. More than once, I had to disconnect the battery to get the parking lights to turn off as they weren't responding to the light switch, and weren't the one sided parking feature lights. My current Audi has done that a few times as well, but with the audio, and climate control systems. Both needed battery disconnect reboots a couple of times per year...gotta love german electronics. The funniest was the steering wheel that raised on exit. Randomly it didn't, but when I got back in, it would think it had been raised, and then lower into my thighs...
The final straw was very much a mechanical part; a seized fan clutch caused the fan to explode in the engine bay. It looked like a bomb went off up front, and destroyed my entire cooling system, punctured the radiator, tore up and even denting the hood. The car sat until the regional rep approved this repair, so yeah my dealership experience was pretty horrible, and if I ever get another BMW it would never visit this dealership again. The 5/7 series were notorious for their brittle cooling systems, so maybe it was a favor, but I was scared of the next massive failure, and scramble for the unexpected dealer visits, etc so I got rid of it.
My life, and job are not so accommodating for those kinds of things, and that car had more visits to the dealerships than all my other cars combined. Even including a failed transmission in the TL Type - S which I traded in on the 540i, no car has/had higher bills, or was out of commission as much. It was still a fun car to drive though,... when I wasn't cursing at it. My TL-S had a failed tranny, and a dead CD changer which required unscheduled dealer visits, my TSX 3 yrs & RDX (7yrs) never saw the dealer, MY TLX (3yrs+) had 2 software updates, and a failed puddle lamp LED which were handled during routine service. My IS300 (8yrs) also never saw a dealer. The BMW had 5-10 non scheduled visits in 6yrs, and was out of commission for weeks.
Not sure if the premium I paid for the car up front made up for the once a year oil changes, and 1 brake job that just made it in the included maintenance period. I did my own own oil changes in between, and a ton of other pro-active maintenance items (filters, diff, tranny, plugs, etc) typically at 50-75% of the recommended intervals. It's no coincidence those extended service intervals started at the same time as included maintenance, and many owners did the same. Also, does anyone really think they didn't pay for that free maintenance up front??? Seriously?
Can we get back to this horrible TLX ad, or shall we continue with the anecdotal my experience was this, YMMV ....
Also once again, this is the TLX forum, which was created for TLX owners. While differing viewpoints are always welcome, a small contingent seem to use every opportunity to be negative, and just say the same things over, and over again. Considering some have never even set foot inside the vehicle this section was started for, and that they are dissuading owner members from posting, this needs to stop. Have no fear, the discussion on Acura as a whole, etc can continue in the Car Talk / off topic forums, but here in the model specific forums it needs to end.
Thank you.

Just an aside as one of the guilty parties. The title of the thread started by a senior Acura zine moderators was about BMW's vs TLX. A TLX owner brought maintenance into the thread.
Thought a response inline with the topic would be OK, apologize if that was incorrect.
BTW, Sorry to hear about you bad experience with your 540, what year was it? How did your AUDI do on maintenance?

As far as BMW reliability, I had a '99 528i before the TL, and I was literally getting something fixed every 3-6 months. Got stranded on the freeway when the coolant pump grenaded. Even with the tranny going out on the TL the experience has been much, much better - which is why I still have it. I'll be looking closely at reliability ratings picking out the next car.

My Audi is not my Daily, I have less than 45k on the clock, and it had 25k when I bought it in 2009. The costs are what you'd expect for a car with an engine shared with the R8 engine, and brakes off a Gallardo. Did the last brake job myself, front and rear rotors alone were over $2k...Pads were probably more than a whole brake job on the TLX....Could be worse if they were Ceramics, but those costs are definitely something I accounted for, and all newbies looking for advice on the RS4 forums are warned about the costs on the brakes, suspension, clutch, carbon cleans, and other potential items...Extended warranty items so far have been the DRC suspension ($5k), and coil packs. I have also needed to replace all 4 O2 sensors over the years, some pretty early on.
Nothing close to the experiences I had with my E39. A bad dealership made bad situations worse.
It was actually a very late production E39; a 2003 540i with the M-Sport Package to be exact.....When I saw the E60, I jumped on an E39, and still consider it a classic to this day. You would think (just like I did) that the bugs would be ironed out for the last year, but guess again......Another crazy issue I almost forgot about....leaking rear doors. The vapor barriers inside the door would separate allowing rain water to collect in the rear seat footwells. A really horrible design, and keep in mind this was a car produced in 2003 with an MSRP of almost 60k, for which this was a common problem! The dealer fixed one side, then the other (unscheduled visits), and when their fixes didn't last, I got fed up, and redid them myself by pulling off the door cards, and resealing the vapor barriers with black silicone sealant instead of their adhesive....

At at least after owning over 10 bmw since 2001. BMW quality and reliability is better than Honda/Acura I have owned. BMW has more electronics glitches. But it’s mechanical parts are excellent.
Engine head opened under warranty because of clattering. Started again at 80000 miles.
Head gasket replaced under warranty. Needed to be replace again along with the valve cover at my expense.
Rear differential was noisy. $3600 to repair, they finally 'good willed' at $1800. I declined and lived with it.
Whole sunroof cartridge completely replaced.
1 pint of oil per 1200 miles since new.
Creakings all around the cockpit.
Oil leak around the oil filter housing.
Coolant pump and thermostat... a $1000 job.
Those are only the mechanical (mostly)... you don't want to know about the rest.... My E46 was MUCH more reliable (I changed only the control arms in 45000 miles).
My TLX has been perfect for 27 months, save for that rocky driver seat, declared 'normal'.

Most E90's after 2010 were pretty solid, prior to that many had high pressure fuel pump issues. This was fixed & extended warranties were applied to all of them.
Current owner of the 335IS told me its running fine & he has had no problems. He runs in the same Auto-X series I run the COBRA in.
The F92 (440) complaints on the site are pretty boring as some guys are wondering why so few. Its a 2018 less then a year old & nothing to report.

And just when you thought the TLX couldn't get any better, Acura went and brought their A game. What is that sound? TLX A-Spec version. The ultimate expression of sport design.

When even strong TLX/TL owners are making fun of the adds they are NOT done well. If you want to go they way Acura did just do it on a features to features comparison. Don't do it at race track to pretend you are a player when anyone who is into cars knows you are not there right now. Maybe in 3G land & maybe in TLX2G they will be there again.
IMHO I like the German adds that never even mention other cars. I would not like to call attention to my competitors.

I have a theory that IF Acura had properly tuned the 9 speed before its release, I think we would have had significantly less negativity about the 9 speed and a bunch of other related complaints about things like the dual screens, the ELS, "beak", and a host of other nitpicks. You know the old saying, Happy Wife, Happy Life...well, a car enthusiast with a good engine and a well mated transmission will be a happy owner. I realize that there are some here that still would not like or love the 9 speed as it's currently tuned, but there would be a lot less bad press for the average joe to read when considering a TLX...IMHO. All the more reason why Acura needs to take it's time in ensuring the 2019 RDX is next to flawless.

As for the reality the 330 has the M-sport suspension & 6MT available stock is quicker then the TLX in sprints. The Track Handling package option (320i, 330i and 340i) includes variable-ratio steering, M Sport brakes, lightweight 18-inch wheels, adaptive suspension dampers & Michlen PPS tires.
Read more: 2017 BMW 3 Series - Buyers Guide | Autoweek
There is a lot of debate on pure handling weather or not the 330 handles better then the 340 due to lighter weight on the front wheels at the BMW sites.
My take is its the 340 because thats what they use at the BMW drivers school & the power available can offset any weight difference between the two.
I don't know the AUDI specifics but I do know its competitive with the 330 based on Multi -Car road tests. In those tests the TLX comes in last out of 5 or 6 cars they generally test.

Handling-wise, I have no doubt that the TLX can't go to the level of a proper equipped 3-series. I already wrote that I give my car 7-8/10 for handling (yet I would buy it again). People said I didn't drive an A-Spec. True, but the car is still high and you can't beat the physic.

If the TLX 2.0 comes back as a sportback design (highly likely due to new Accord), it will prove to be a worthy product. In both luxury, sportiness, and DD aspects. Now this is of course very dependent to Acura equipping it as a sport sedan if people wish to do so with all the options on the table.
If they do so, they can easily win in any comparison ad, as long as price is not stupidly high. If not then people may as well stick with the Germans since a logo will always be a logo.
