facebook group
Trying to revive the Acura scene in the lower mainland area. If you have facebook and is interested in joining our group, we discuss and help members out. We also try to do monthly car meets. Anyways the group is called "Vancity Acurazine" if you're interested. Just request to join and send me a PM that you request to join. We are unfortunately more active on facebook than on this thread haha!
Thanks
Alex

Used to have a 2006 Anthracite TL with A spec kit, lowered, rims and CT exhaust, J-pipe & PCD Delete but moved on to a GS350 F-sport when it came out.
Yeah, last I saw your TL was at a Thursday car meet a few years ago. Nice to see she's been good to you and doesn't have the dreaded transmission issue.

Reppin Vancity.
2nd gen, winter ride.
Sort of looking to transition into a "grownup car"...
I love the level of comfort these cars have. Just too used to taking a beating in my other Honda/Acura when driving "spirited". Lol
This may be there reason I my next ride is another TL.

hey guys so glad i found this, just grabbed my first tl. think i got hit with the dreaded transmission. my car slipped coming back from work in northvan ,it revved real hard from turning left. pulled over restarted and got to mcgill at 40 thx to the shitty north van traffic lol. anywho for 30mins it was the same so i gave up and called a mechanic and got quoted for 2500 rebuild. my buddy drove the car cause i was so pissed and i drove his. on the way there he kept calling me saying i must be high and i kept telling him no, so we get to the mechanic i hop in he drives and tells me he feels nothing wrong. and i drove him, today i drove it to work again no problems one minor jerk at 40 after speeding up after a speed bump i pulled over and just put it in N and drove off again been fine again drives smoooth like the first time i got it. any help is much appreciated. thinking i should just either start looking for a used tranny and rebuild it

Hey guys! 4 days ago I bought a black 2007 TL Type-S. Wow what a car! I had no idea the following these things had! I bought it because my Roush charged 6.2l F-150 was just killing me at the gas stations as a daily driver. This truck is fast. 600hp. But not practical for Vancity,especially the North Shore.
Anyways, my TL Type-S is basically stock, with exception to some tinted windows. It has 121,000 km's. Seems to be in mint condition . I'm a firm believer in aftermarket goodies. The first thing I want to do is upgrade the exhaust. possibly with the J-pipe. Looking for a local place to hook me up the parts in the area. Any direction would bet greatly appreciated. I'm very excited about the build on this car. A clean slate to work with. Also. I will try to join the Facebook group for tips and talk. Of course the HFL is not functioning.
This is my intro to this site. Great info on here!
thanks

Picked out up for 12,900! They put new tires and full servicing on it too. Although its black in color I've noticed in certain light, it has a deep blue pearl to it. It's an automatic with 6mt option. Paddle shifters on steering wheel and on the stick. It is fully loaded and the interior is mint. When you really put your foot into it, you can spin it out. This thing is surprisingly fast.

Hey guys I just got a 3rd gen TL about 3 months ago, wondering if you guys had any recommendations on Acura mechanics in the lower mainland other than the dealerships. Or any recommendations on what i could use besides the shitty cassette aux adapters to play my music hahah.
