2000 Acura TL Start Up and Review 3.2 L V6 

Usually more performance too

Only thing different from my 02 accord is heated seats and the 3.2 vtec. Besides that my accord has all that

more sound insulation. I have a 04 accord LX and a 2000 TL

Do you still have your acura? What is the maintenance like?

That's awesome. Same here. My car is at 197 thousand miles

T.M.U.T Channel does it run well? I’m buying one tomorrow with 206,000 for $1,400

I have a 2001 with 162k miles

i just got one with 175k on it, only 500 bucks for it cause the power steering needs fixing

LeJunny as long as you take care of it it'll definitely take care of you, I currently own a 1999 TL with 374,000 miles on it and it runs like a Champ.

Someone’s giving me one for free in a few days. Has 230k miles on it. He’s a mechanic and it was his sisters car and she gave it to him and he has no use for it and said I can have it. Car shifted just fine when I drove it. Sunroof is leaking slightly which isn’t a problem for me because I’ll be parking it under a carport

Navikesh Naidu I believe it...I have a 2001 TL and it flyes !!!!!

Mines too bro

I bought this as my first car.. 320k kilometers on it. Not a single thing wrong with it. And ive had a little fun with it and she take it and ask for more speed she is amazing

I just bought one today a 2000 Acura TL with 137,000 mile For 3200 dollar. It looks like a real nice car i hope it doesn’t give me problem

@@lgrw9883 it wont

@@oldnintendolink thank you for the reply. I hope you’re right. I’m only 19 year old, so I asked my dad for input on what would be a good car , because I don’t want to spend a 2 or 3 thousand Dollar and end up with some piece crap, like a Chevy cavalier. my dad told that he think Acura TL will be a reliable car and fun car. he is a big fan of early 2000s Honda/ Acura vehicles, also it is well maintained by the originally Owner with service records and no rust Also, it actually only has 127,000 miles, not 137. That was a typo in my original comment.

My friend was spoild lol and made no effort into fixing it so it'll break and say mom dad I need a new car! Lol sad but true..

@Dill Clinton that's what he had the auto it was the worst transmission (the auto)..

Can you use usb and play music in your phone

@@inklike6976 I have one and I uses tape deck to aux adapter and it has good audio quality

Chris Anderson super old post but the transmissions are recalled, they go once you get up in the higher 100ks

Timothy Voight transmission recalled? What does that mean? My 2000 with 89k is slipping 3-4 shifts occasionally, but ik people with 2000-2003 models with almost 200k and it's smooth for them

@@timothyvoight6886 I’m getting one for free in a few days and it has 230k miles on it

@Dill Clinton even the four speeds found in the accords of that time were pretty bad too unfortunately, source: own a 2000 TL and 98 accord coupe

Wdym? That’s way too much. It should be 5k

You still have it

@@Fyourfeelingz yup currently at 249.3k

@@JayyVQ_ 🔥🔥

@@JayyVQ_ same. 249.1k

That 3.2L V6 VTec is pretty bulletproof

No I have 1, its a CD tray

T Smitty Got some photos? If you don't know a good photo uploader, use imgur.com.

Oh wow, I forgot I made this comment. My mom did end up getting a 2003 Acura TL. Ours is a storage tray. It has space for a small pen, a card holder (for the insurance card you get when you buy the car), and a little square of space. The older models had a CD tray that could store about 3 CDs.

YOU KNOW WHAT! I forgot lmao

I just bought one today a 2000 Acura TL with 137,000 mile For 3200 dollar. It looks like a real nice car i hope it doesn’t give me problem

don't forget to clean the solenoid screens too

or slightly more .

How is the TL doing now?

@@jared8847 I lent it to my brother and he abused tf out of it and eventually blew the transmission lol. Had like 250k on it. Didn’t have time to put a new trans in it so unfortunately I sent it to the junkyard. I now have a 2001 Acura RL I bought a few months ago for $1800 bucks. Also has a little over 230k miles on it. It needs some work, but the interior is clean and the transmission shifts like butter

I have one to this day

+itsmegp46 how has it treated you? im looking into buying one with 180K, not sure if I should because of the high mileage

+2007350ZHR Even though my car runs great with so many miles, it is a fifteen year old car with a lot of miles. So, buying one with that many miles is taking a huge risk no matter what car it is. This is a near luxury car and as such, maintenance can be fairly pricey. In addition, some normal wear items which should have been done may not have. Such as was the timing belt changed along with the water pump? If the timing belt snaps, goodbye engine. The five speed automatic was extremely troublesome, with a nearly 100% failure rate at some point. Mine was replaced at 34,000 miles. The service tech advised me to change the trannie fluid every 2 years or 24,000 miles. I've been doing this and so far no more transmission issues. I would suggest you try to find a newer but smaller car with a lot fewer miles.

awesome thanks for the advice

I drive a TL with 411000 kilometres so about 255000 miles and it runs really good has some minor transmission quirks which I hear are very common on this era of TL

+Frederick Neill That's good to know my car will last at least another 75,000 miles, thanks!

not in 2000 . Most car didn't got Bluetooth until 2005 atleast

It's a CD holder.

I agree These were and still are notorious For transmission failures So good for acura/ honda reliability

Patrick B is it still running? Cause my 2000 TL with 89k is slipping a 3-4 gear shift occasionally

A car is only good if you take care of it my 00 tl gave me a few issues with the transmission do to the solenoids the orings inside them gave out and i lost pressure in the hydraulic system of the transmission but I changed the orings and its working even better then what it was before and it has 181k miles on it... i went to a transmission shop and they were telling me that my transmission was gone i proved them wrong could easily hit 120+ on the highway it’s maintenance stuff that gives the car a bad name yet if you dont do maintenance on any vehicle not a matter of if it’s when it will give out

@@patrickb9687 covered only if you are the original owner? Probably not if you buy one used thats 2p years old i guess..

BentlyboYY In that case I am one of the lucky ones...since I bought mine on October of 2010 at 89k miles now almost 8 years later never a problem at 163k and I love it!!!!!

Yeah I just put one in mine not fun

Got mine at 108 000 km ( Canada )and change transm at 285 000 km. I guess it is not bad

Vitaliy B. That's the price of the car.

It's actually 7995 and it's the price

@@TangyWaterpark i can see why its 8g. Its immaculate condition

C Trey I have this car too. The manual says D5 is for everyday normal driving.

That's strange I put mines n d4 I tired d3 I was on the freeway n the car was shaking lol because the gears weren't changing until I called the guy I got the car from n he said try d4 n I never had a problem again

+C Trey I don't get why you use D4. The transmission is automatic. Under normal driving conditions, street, highway, you should keep the gear shifter in D5. You get much better mileage, its quieter, less wear on the engine. Also, in D4, the transmission never locks out the torque converter at highway speeds.

well wen i put mines in d5 the damn car shakes like a mf wen u going top speed like on freeway i tried every drive shift jus to b safe n d4 was the only one that seemed to work

maybe i tried d3 imma try d5 next to b sure

Yeah. I prefer early 2000's infinitis over acura and lexus
