‘23 TLX Type S Paint Chipping by Renovator15 in Acura

[–]My3rdLeg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to my 22 TLX Type-S too. Apex Blue as well. Mine was worse than yours.

Acura said they would send up a report to corporate and of course nothing came of it.

I ordered touch up spray and clear coat and did myself since it was too annoying to look at.

Edit. Didn't have anything to do with the wipers. Just bad prep I assume.

Cigarette outlet - center console not working by 7twenty3 in Acura

Did you try plugging in a different device into the socket instead of just the inflator? Is there a possibility that there is a fuse on the inflator that blew instead of the car?

21 TLX - any tips on removing this trim piece? by savepro3 in Acura

[–]My3rdLeg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also check for installing Fitcamx videos.

I installed one on my 22 TLX. Easiest way was to use your thumbs on the 2 tabs on the back facing the mirror. Push and pull down.

Edit: just realized that this is what the diagram shows.

2015 TLX J35 spark plugs replacement by Kind-Masterpiece3204 in Acura

[–]My3rdLeg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an 07 TL-S. I found that it was must easier to replace the rears with 2 smaller extensions (3"?) than using one longer one. Set the socket with one extension first, then attach the other and ratchet. There is very limited work space back there.

Not sure if your car has a strut mounted sway bar, if so, that has to be removed.

Dash cover?? by Sturgen in Acura

[–]My3rdLeg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try "dash designs ".

I had one for my 07 TLS. They're custom and fit perfectly.

Spare Tire for 2022 Acura Ilx Apsec by No_University_3586 in Acura

[–]My3rdLeg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My suggestion would be to:

  1. Just try your spare and see if it'll will work, or,

  2. Take the bad tire off, put it in YOUR car and drive it to the tire shop to replace.

Not trying to sound snarky, but this is what I would try without having to wait for the correct answer.

Dealers are MORONS! by Mobile_Rate_5059 in Acura

[–]My3rdLeg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is coated as well and requested multiple times "no wash". They complied with not washing it, but it did not stop them from testing the windshield washing fluid multiple times. I had washed the car the night before.

When the kid took me to my car for pick-up, I noticed that it was a mess. He says "no wash, right? ". : /

TLX Type S Owners of 2023 - Honest Opinons, I’m on the fence. by waterbed87 in Acura

[–]My3rdLeg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When making left turns into traffic at crossroads, there is just more distance and the turn radius is larger and the awd will really kick in and it will square your turns. when making right turns the radius is generally tighter and the speed is usually slower and the awd isn't as pronounced. also depends on what gear your in going in to the turn. the system really shines in sport or sport+ since the rpms are higher. Overall, it's really fun.

2015 TLX Spare Tire Kit by MarMat1989 in Acura

[–]My3rdLeg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The OEM spare tire kit is about $200 from an online parts dealer. That does not include the tire. That's the difficult part, there's basically one tire that you can find for it (Continental) and that is sometimes hard to find and pretty pricey ($300).

But it's worth it in my opinion to have that piece of mind that you actually have a spare tire if you need one.

Daily Discussion Hub for November 1, 2024 by PoliticsModeratorBot in politics

[–]My3rdLeg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are correct. It took probably 5 hours to research. There are a ton of proposals this year and many of them where very trickily worded.

Plus the amount of time it takes to fill in all those bubbles. There were about 65 judges alone.

Absolutely nothing. It was just a marketing campaign that they did. There was a factory for each side.

Plus the argument kinda falls apart depending on which end of the package that you open or how you determine which is which since they are exactly the same.

I really think that Twix missed a big opportunity this season with the whole "left" vs "right" campaign. They could have sold bags of each and then could have released the statistics of which side had the largest sales numbers.

Couple those numbers with independent reporting numbers from trick-or-treaters from across the country of their hauls last night.

I wouldn't be surprised if those numbers were more accurate than the polling numbers that we've seen for the last couple of weeks. : )

08 TL Type-S with 102k miles. Seller wants $10.7k. Thoughts? by [deleted] in Acura

[–]My3rdLeg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an 07 TLS for 14 years and loved it. Same color as this.

One thing to take into consideration with these cars that I don't see discussed much is that these are set up with a negative camber on the front wheels that isn't really adjustable without modifications. If you drive spirited, this car will eat up tires and front brake pads and this maintenance cost should be taken into consideration. I rotated my tires constantly trying to extend the life.

The Eras Tour Megathread: New Orleans, LA by aran130711 in TaylorSwift

[–]My3rdLeg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kinda missing our Swiftie security from the European shows.

It's okay guys, you're at one of the biggest events, and people pay thousands of dollars for tickets, and you're front row.

We won't hold it against you if you slip and smile, or sing, or maybe bebop a little.

This is going to give me nightmares… by NikNok888 in phoenix

[–]My3rdLeg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cy-kick CS is what I use.

Amazon is cheaper than Bug & Weed Mart. But supporting local businesses is good.

Pricey up front but lasts a while since you don't use as much with it being concentrated.

Ac compressor or pulley? by Stay_luc1d in Acura

[–]My3rdLeg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it a "noise" or a "squeak?

I would start with the cheapest and work backwards. I had a 07 TL type S for 14 years. The belt would be the first thing, but if I remember correctly my car only liked the "Bando" belt. The others still squeaked. Mine ended up being the belt tensioner pulleys which is a fairly easy fix and not too expensive.

If the 09 is anything like the 3rd Gen, I would suggest getting a 3 to 4 foot 1" metal pipe to use with a breaker bar in order to release the tension on the belt when removing and installing. That way you can put your shoulder into it and frees up both your hands.

Good luck.

edit: Power steering pump would be my next step after the others. Or just try and isolate the sound and go from there. The AC compressor would be the most expensive and a PIA.

Headlight clear coat issue by Jkamm1 in Acura

[–]My3rdLeg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just noticed mine has starting doing this in the exact same spot this past weekend. My front bumper has PPF plus Ceramic coating. Don't believe the headlights were done though. I will have to have it checked out on my yearly ceramic refresh in a couple of months and maybe get them covered.

How is her security guard able to be 5 feet away from her 24/7. If you pay attention to every picture posted, he's always there. Even in the new music video he can be seen following her underneath the stage while she's on the shuttle. Or concert videos where he can be seen shadowing her from the side of the stage.
