I had my nephew look at it tonight; and he thought I could have done it by sliding the toe of my shoe along the side as I got out of the car. Needless to say, I have no memory of that. And I've been in and out of ten cars in my lifetime without damage to the door. I'm hoping that the dealer will fix it or replace that pullout tray. If they refuse to, how much do you think it would cost me to replace the tray and/or pay to have the leather repaired?
I recently sold my 2002 Saab 9-5; and it had a spotless interior with not even a scuff mark. So you can see why this is driving me crazy.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
thanks

Yes the transmission is a problem. Mine suffered a total failure at 93K miles but Acura replaced it for no charge.

Are your cars completely quiet inside except for the sound of the road?

I have the same issue with the 06 MDX.
The new keyfob is so nice, and the 06 is absolutely some of the worst quality I've seen in a fob.
I have only one key on the ring with my fob... the ignition key.
When it's not in the ignition, it's in my pocket with NOTHING else.
And yet, still, the fob is scratched to death and looks like a 15 yr old piece of junk.
Has anyone had this experience? It's not the alignment, because they said they redid it when they replaced the tires. Any ideas??
Thanks!
Do tire rotation go on the maintenance minder?
Wow, so your car has the window issue, plus the rough idle and the drivetrain vibration. :surprise: I thought all the bugs had been worked out by '06. The only common issue you don't have seems to be interior rattles, which my '04 has been inflicted with.
I understand what he's saying.
The remote allows you to roll down the windows.
You do this by holding the Unlock button in and the windows will roll down. If you release the button while the windows are rolling down, they stop.
If he is unlocking his car with the keyfob, but holding the button just slightly too long, the windows will begin to roll down and then stop as he releases his button....
Enough to create a wind noise, but not down enough to notice visually.
I don't want to upset the host by posting a link but I would suggest going to the acurazine website and find it there. Good luck
Ok, yes I have all those things PLUS a rattle on my passenger side door. It drives me nuts because it only happens once in a while (doesn't matter what road I'm on, bumpy or smooth) and I can't tell exactly where it's coming from! Of course it never happens with a passenger in the car for them to see if they can tell where it's coming from.
PS....I'm a she
I started with two - then added two more - and my glove box has not rattled since. It did make the glove box door a little hard to close at first - but it works fine now.
I also used them on the side pockets on both doors.
But seriously, no I've not had this experience with my TL. Nor my father, brother and neighbor with their TLs. Nor any posts on Edmunds that I can recall. I hope your wife wasn't hurt.

Thanks.
The felt pads I bought are 3/4 of an inch in diameter and 3/16 of an inch thick.
I put one on each side of the little metal bar that the latch on the glove box door hooks onto - plus on the face of the dash - right where the edge of the door closes there are 2 - 3/4 inch diameter indentations molded right into the plastic - the round felt pads fit inside them perfectly - almost like they were designed to have them placed there.
Its been about 4 months since I killed this rattle - it could come back - it if does I will just replace the felt pads with new ones.
My question is, since I have not been following this form lately, "is anyone else having this same problem ?" and if so what was the out come.
We have two vehicles so in three years it only has 31,000 miles on it and is driven maybe once a week from Dec. to March with our leather coats on.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks, Don
I know the TL is supposed to have a 17 gallon tank yet the most I have ever had to fuel up is 15 gallon so far. Does the low fuel indicator come on that early for everyone else?
Solution.... I retrained my feet. I know that we are taught these days to only use our right foot on an automatic but my feet are old enough to remember when that was not the case. Sooo.. left foot for the brake and right for the gas. No more power surges.................
Is there a setting on the car to turn this feature on/off or should I call the dealer in the morning to fix?
Yes, I find the low fuel warning light to come on in a conservative manner. At least 2+ gallons left. And it is better than running dry!
