So I’ve been hearing a bunch about the 2006 Acura TL having some issues. My buddy had one and he was dealing with some annoying problems. First up, the transmission—yep, it’s a total headache. He had to get it rebuilt twice in under four years. It’s like, how’s that even possible? Another thing, his electronics would just freak out sometimes. Couldn’t get the A/C to work or the windows to go up and down randomly. And last thing, the engine light kept coming on for no good reason. He took it to a few places and they were like, ‘oh it’s this or that’ but nothing ever fixed it.
The ride felt kinda rough too, like it was more bumpy than smooth. Plus, he said the clutch started acting up, making it super tricky to drive in traffic. Isn’t Acura supposed to be reliable though? Anyway, I was thinking if y’all have had any luck with the TL or if you’ve had similar troubles. Would love to hear your stories or tips, maybe we can figure something out.
I’ve had a 2006 Acura TL for a couple of years now, living in Ontario, Canada. One of the first hiccups was dealing with tranny issues myself, had to get it flushed a couple of times. Then the battery drama hit hard in winter—just wouldn’t hold a charge. But man, the interiors stay nice, no major problems with upholstery or dashboard—what’s y’all found? Yo, c’mon, spill your factory stories, let’s get real about these beasts.
I’ve owned a 2006 Acura TL up here in Toronto and man, it’s been a ride, literally and literally! The transmission is a real headache—keeps shifthing weirdly, especially when I hit the gas hard. Got the suspension worked on once; it was knocking on the highway like it’s some kind of dance move. But power is solid, Cap size perfection. All in all, a solid car for the classic vibe, just needs that TLC!
I’ve got an 07’ Acura TL, been in Michigan—engine noise’s crazy! Brake issues, too, pops like crazy on startup. Fixing it’s been a pain. Engine sound gives RAWR like a beast in the night, lol. Handles smooth otherwise, just vibing when I drive, lol. Heard similar stories in Canada too! Helped fix things with dealership. Fixes ain’t cheap tho.
Living in Toronto, I’ve had a '06 Acura TL, and it’s a total ride. Trust me, the electrical issues pop up more than a hot pop tart. I’ve had to fiddle with the AC almost daily, and the suspension can feel like a bumpy country road. Still, it’s a solid beauty when she’s behaving! It just needs TLC, ya know?
I’ve owned a '06 Acura TL in Canada for years. The transmission’s been a real headache, often slipping gears like crazy, especially when pushing above 50 mph. The electrical issues, leather stitching peeling, those rattle bugs too. My buddy says it’s a lovely ride, but man, the fixes can drain your wallet fast. #AcuraChallenges #CarLove
I’ve got a 2006 Acura TL here in Ontario, and the suspension’s been janky since day one. Had the darn timing belt replaced twice already. The AC’s doing weird sounds too, but it’s still ride-worthy! Ain’t super reliable, but keeps me going.
I’ve got an '06 Acura TL in Portland, and trust me, it’s seen better days. Headlight alignment’s way off, HVAC smells rank, and the engine’s been knocking. Can’t seem to pop the trunk either—annoying much? But the ride’s smooth, still love it within reason, y’know?
In Denver, I’ve dealt with my 2006 Acura TL’s engine stalling and AC going kaput. Found the shifter linkage broken twice too. It’s inconvenient but manageable, you feel me?
I’ve owned a '06 Acura TL in Texas, and man, the brakes been a pain. My buddy in Ontario had issues with the engine light too. Had it in for a tune-up, felt like we never got outta that shop. But, aside from that, lasted a solid 10 years. A bit quirky, but still rides smooth as glass. Just watch those warning lights!
I’ve owned a 2006 Acura TL for years in Denver, and battery issues are a real pain. Mine died on me twice! Some say the A/C compressor gets finicky too, especially when it’s hot. Also, engine trouble is no joke; my buddy from Toronto had his tranny fail in his. Still, it’s a comfy ride if you keep up with maintenance. Just watch out for those unexpected hiccups!
I’ve got a 06 Acura TL from Texas, and I’ve run into some common gripes. The transmission’s finicky, especially in stop-n-go traffic. Also, those headlight bulbs burn out like crazy.

I’ve had a 2006 Acura TL in Canada, and let me tell ya, it’s had its fair share of headaches. Timing chain issues are a common throbber, and the exhaust system? Less than trusty, my friend. Engine noise is no stranger either. But hey, for a coupe like this, it’s still a smooth ride most days!
I’ve had my fair share of issues with my '06 Acura TL in Toronto. The A/C went bonkers every summer and the suspension was like walking on cobblestones.

I’ve owned a 2006 Acura TL in Canada and, man, the battery’s always acting up! Hydraulic power steering failed on me twice—turned driving into a workout session!

I’ve got an '06 Acura TL up in Ohio, and the transmission’s a real pain. Like, really, it acts up often during acceleration. Had to deal with that annoying timing belt issue, too. Some of my buds had similar troubles with the engine light randomly flipping on. Anyone else hit these or other bugs?
I’ve got experience with the 2006 Acura TL in LA and noticed some common issues. J-Bird’s supposed to be solid, right? Engine vibrations were wild, battery died constantly, and suspension noises were like a horror movie soundtrack. Pretty annoying! Guess V6’s not always peachy.
I’ve got a 2006 Acura TL, and man, the tranny issues were a real headache in California. Electrical glitches were constant too. I replaced the battery twice already. Even for a reliable Acura, this model’s a handful. Anyone else dealing with the AC going out on hot days? Crazy stuff.
I’ve got an old ‘06 Acura TL from Maine. Had a few quirks, like the power window acting up in winter—pretty annoying, right? And the AC blows hot before cold. But call me a car geek, I totally love fixing these lil’ things up. They’re reliable aside from that. Anyone else run into these or others?
