SOURCE: 2005 Acura tl brake replacement

The Brembos that come on Type S/Manual models wear fast. I've changed them at 20,000 miles. They are expensive also.

Non-Type S/Manual models I have seen go 80,000 miles. The biggest factor on brake wear is how the vehicle is driven.

At 50,000 miles I would have them inspected. Depending on where you go, make sure you get an accurate measurement of both pads (inboard and outboard). 2mm is the service limit and about that time the indicators start making noise, but not always. Most indepent shops are going to sell you brake pads at 4mm. That's another 10,000 miles at least you could have driven on them.

Never replace just the brake pads, resurface or replace the rotors. The uneven surfaces of the rotor will cause your new pads to wear incorrectly and possibly cause brake noise. Most aftermarket pads will cause a squeel.

SOURCE: how to change spark plugs on 2005 acura tl

Hi,

you need a 6 inch extension, short 3/8 ratchet, 5/8 plug socket, 3/8 swivel "u" joint, (sold at sears) 8mm 1/4 drive socket deep well and 1/4 inch ratchet.

find the coil packs (6 total, three in each head.)
remove the two retaining nuts holding each coil pack using 1/4 8mm socket and ratchet.
twist the pack to break the sticking boot below.
pull up (be careful to not rip the boots however it may still happen but rare.)
remove coil packs, the rear is a little more difficult with the intake.
use 6" extension and u joint and ratchet to remove plugs and replace.
reverse order to assemble. Good luck, and hoped this helped.

SOURCE: acura rsx trunk latch stuck & won't open

could be the spring release in the lever on the trunk itself. If you can hear the acuator locking/unlocking(that is all it's ment to do) then the spring release is the problem. you need to unbolt the latch from inside the trunk and once the trunk is open you can trace from there. I had the same problem due to a minor fender bender and I just fixed mine last week.

How can I get my keys out of my 2005 acura tl trunk?

Sadly, without a key, the interior seat release mechanism won't allow the seats to be folded down to access the trunk in that fashion. Do you have a valet key or a second set of keys accessible?
LONGSHOT: If you have a picture of your key, a professional locksmith can cut a key for you from the picture so you can unlatch the back seats.
This is true of second generation TL/TLXs as well.
You may end up having to have a dealer perform a dealer unlock using the electronic interface inside the passenger compartment.

I just purchased a 2005 Acura TL and if the car sits for 2 days the battery is completely dead. Fob will not even open the door. The dealer put in a new battery and it still did it. What is the problem?

Evidently, you have a short. A lamp is probably draining the battery in the trunk, the glovebox/well or under the engine hood.

You can perform a process of elimination by opening your trunk and observe the light is on. Find the switch for the light and press it in to make sure the light turns off. Do this a couple of times to eliminate an intermittently function switch. Do the same for under your hood, glove box, etc.

Basically, you are drawing current for something. The easiest way to find this is with a current meter hooked up to your battery but what I have suggested above is for the non-technical person to try at home.

My trunk on my 2005 Acura TL will not pop up. When I closed it I heard a clinging noise, the trunk is very heavy when opened manually. What might this be? Shock? Spring?

There's a longsteel rod on the roof of your trunk that goes from one trunk hinge to the other and it acts like a spring when your trunk lever is pulled. Sounds like it broke on one side.

Tail light replacement 2005 acura TL

if it's a tail light housing that broke, and not the bulb that simply burnt out, i'm afraid your solution isn't that simple. you have to at least loosen the bumper on the side that the tail light need be replaced. which will include removing the mud flap on that side of the car, removing all the clips on the bottom of the bumper, and removing the two bolts behind the quarter sized plastic covers just inside the trunk lid.
