Nobody ever talks about 2nd gen TLs. I bought a Pearl White 01 a couple months ago, and it’s super reliable. I personally love how the rear looks on the 2nd gens
@iamatlantis1 Жыл бұрын
I've always loved the 2nd gens also. They hold a special sore spot in my heart ever since back in 2011 when I bought a blue with black interior 2003 Type S. It had 114k miles, just past the extended factory warranty for the transmission that Acura offers which is 109k i think. Guess what was broken?. Thats why no one ever talks about em because the transmissions were horribly unreliable. Ruined what was a really good looking and decently quick car back when it was new. I took it back to the small dealership i got it from within 48 hours and got a full refund after it popped out of gear while my wife was driving it and threw a check engine code for the transmission. 😭

@@iamatlantis1I lucked out on my 04 Accord V6 and bought it at 109k miles a few years ago the auto transmission was ok but felt like it was starting to slip a little. I changed out the fluid a few times as well as that little filter that Honda never tells you about (in that little compartment that is underneath the air filter box) and it shifts almost perfectly now. I guess I lucked out. I am not sure why so many of these transmissions were bad. Maybe they just couldn't handle the awesome power of the j-series? Sucks because these were great cars in every other aspect. If you wanted something more reliable I guess you could have gotten a Lexus ES but I don't think there's as big of a following for those. Even the TSX wasn't as popular as these TLs. And in the enlarged bulbous later generation from 09-12 was just ok but looked and felt more like a commuter car than a sporty-ish car. The TLX was the same until they finally just recently released the new Type S varient which honestly doesn't have me feeling as excited as I was for the older Type S models. I guess I'm just old school and prefer the classic road+motor engagement of old school Hondas.
