I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN!! i know how much better the type-s look but the thing is $$$$ you will lose about $5000 or more if you trade in for a type-s just play with your own TL replace it with type-s blackout headlighs and add the foglights because used car is always kind of fu*ked up in some way and...

My Acura TL model S had all windows down, sun roof, and trunk open?
I have no idea if it IS an automatic feature of this car, but is there something it's automatically set to do (in VERY cold weather?) or a button accidentally pressed that leaves all of these things open in the car? No smart asses please. (You know "Idiot, you were car jacked")

There is no setting that would do that, but holding down the unlock button on your key fob will open all the windows and sunroof, and the trunk button will obviously open the trunk. Was your key fob being pushed by accident?

Is it ok to use 5w 30 in place of 5w 20 for 2002 acura TL?
I have a 2002 acura tl type-s, i recently had an oil change, they ask me if i wanted 5w 30, i said ok. ( its synthetic btw) I was cleaning the engine the other day and realize the oil cap says, use 5w 20 only. Will the 5w 30 oil damage the engine? Thanks
Source: Yahoo! Answers, 4 answers

While it is doubtful that the 5w-30 oil will damage anything, the engine was designed to use the 5w-20 and specifically calls for it. I've been told the reason for this is the close tolerances built into the engine that necessitate a lower viscosity oil to achieve design flow characteristics. While...

Why should I also consider these? X

The Audi A4, also redesigned for 2009, is a front-wheel-drive-biased vehicle just like the TL, but Audi has taken great pains to move its mass rearward and make it a sportier, more engaging drive—and they succeeded.

BMW's 3-Series is the benchmark for its class due to its magical ride/handling combination, but it's a tighter fit inside and options are pricey.

The Cadillac CTS presents as strong a styling statement as the TL, yet does so in an appealing way; rear-wheel drive, a well-sorted chassis, great powertrains, and a sumptuous interior complete a compelling package.

Starting in the low thirties, yet with an interior that comes within inches of a Mercedes S550 for richness and room, the rear-wheel-drive Hyundai Genesis sedan is the value leader here, but soft handling means it won't win in the slalom.

Volkswagen's Passat also brings great value and a stunning interior to the table, but just like the TL, its front-wheel-drive setup won't thrill driving enthusiasts.
